SKF BMB series bearings are special units designed for electric motors. They are identified by a code that combines the size of the base bearing, the shaft diameter and the type of execution. They are used in applications where the motor is subjected to vibration, moderate radial and axial loads, and requires precise mounting. At MR Accesorios Industriales we supply them as part of our special bearings line.
The BMB series designation is read in blocks. The prefix BMB indicates it is a bearing for an electric motor. Then comes the base bearing code, such as 6202, 6204 or 6205, which defines the size. After that, a slash and a three-digit number indicate the shaft diameter, for example 032 for 32 mm or 048 for 48 mm. The letter S and the number that follows indicate the type of sealing or protection. Finally, UA with a three-digit number identifies the special execution, which may include internal clearance, lubrication or particular tolerances. The examples BMB-6202/032S2/UA002A and BMB-6204/048S2/UA002A show this structure.
These bearings are used in electric motors for industrial use, such as those driving pumps, fans, conveyor belts and machine tools. In Argentina, they are common in the metallurgical, food and petrochemical sectors, where motors run continuously and are exposed to dust, humidity or varying temperatures. They are also used in refrigeration equipment and in applications with frequency inverters, which can induce parasitic currents. The BMB series offers a compact and reliable solution for these environments.
To select the correct bearing, take into account the shaft diameter, the type of load and the environmental conditions. Verify that the sealing is suitable for the level of contamination; the S and UA suffixes indicate specific configurations that are not always interchangeable. During mounting, ensure precise alignment between the shaft and the housing, and use the appropriate tools to avoid damaging the seals. Lubrication must be the one specified by the manufacturer for the particular execution. Incorrect mounting can reduce the service life of the bearing.
Regarding equivalences, SKF BMB series bearings can be found in other brands with similar designations, but there is no universal standardization for this type of unit. Each manufacturer defines its own codes for shaft diameter, sealing and special execution. Therefore, when looking for a replacement, it is essential to compare the critical dimensions and operating conditions, not just the code. If you have doubts, consult us with the original code and shaft measurements.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What does the abbreviation BMB mean in an SKF bearing?
- BMB is the designation SKF uses to identify special bearings for electric motors. These bearings combine a base bearing, such as the 6202 or 6204, with a specific shaft diameter and a particular execution. It is not a general standard, but a manufacturer-specific code.
- How do I interpret the code BMB-6202/032S2/UA002A?
- The code is divided into parts: BMB indicates the series for electric motor; 6202 is the base bearing; 032 indicates a shaft diameter of 32 mm; S2 refers to the type of sealing; and UA002A identifies the special execution. Each block provides information about dimensions and characteristics.
- Can I replace a BMB bearing with one from a different brand?
- Yes, but with caution. There is no universal equivalence for the BMB series. Other brands may have similar codes, but the shaft dimensions, sealing and internal clearance may vary. Always compare the critical measurements and consult a specialist before replacing.
