SKF MRC.5220C is a double row angular contact ball bearing reference, within Bearings. Request a quote for MRC.5220C via WhatsApp or email with the quantity you need; we respond promptly with lead time and equivalents.
The SKF MRC.#C bearing is a double row angular contact bearing, designed to carry combined loads —radial and axial— in both directions. Its construction with two rows of balls at opposing contact angles gives it high rigidity and makes it suitable for positions requiring precise guidance and load capacity in both directions. It is used in gearboxes, spindles, pumps and transmission equipment that demand accuracy and reliability. MR Accesorios Industriales carries this SKF line and advises you on choosing the correct part number.
The designation MRC.#C reads as follows: the letters MRC identify the double row angular contact bearing category; the number that follows —replaced by # in this listing— indicates the size and dimension series; and the suffix C indicates a design variant within that category. In the examples MRC.5220C and MRC.5311C the pattern is clear: the number changes with size, but the letters and the suffix stay the same. To order the replacement, send the complete part number exactly as it appears on the drawing or on the bearing's marking.
These bearings are chosen for applications with axial loads in both directions and where a rigid mounting is required. In Argentine industry they appear in gearboxes, machine tool spindles, centrifugal pumps, compressors, draft fans and belt or chain drive equipment. They are also found in textile machines, packaging machines and continuous process equipment, where rotational precision and repeatability are critical. Being double row, they simplify the design because they replace two single row bearings with a single unit.
To select the correct part number, take into account the radial and axial load it must carry, the rotational speed and the environmental conditions. Sealing is key: if there is dust, moisture or chips, additional protection or a sealed bearing is advisable. Internal clearance and lubrication must follow the manufacturer's recommendation; insufficient lubrication or an incorrectly set clearance shortens service life. Alignment between housing and shaft also matters: although the bearing has some tolerance, misaligned mounting generates parasitic loads.
As for equivalents, double row angular contact bearings are identified by their complete designation, which varies between manufacturers. There is no universal conversion table: to replace an SKF MRC.#C with another brand, you must compare dimensions, contact angle, clearance and load capacity. In many cases, the competitor's part number does not even match in the number of digits. So if you need an alternative, send us the equipment data and the original part number: at MR Accesorios Industriales we help you find the right option.
If you have the part number MRC.#C on hand, write to us on WhatsApp and we'll get you a quote. We can also advise you if you are unsure between a sealed or open variant, or if you need to confirm interchangeability with another manufacturer. At MR Accesorios Industriales we work with SKF bearings and other lines so your equipment keeps running. Send the complete part number and we'll reply shortly.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What does the C suffix mean in the MRC.#C part number?
- The C suffix indicates a design variant within the double row angular contact bearing category. It may refer to a modification in contact angle, internal clearance or cage type. To know exactly what it means in your part number, ask us with the complete designation.
- Does this bearing accept axial loads in both directions?
- Yes, due to its double row design with opposing contact angles, it carries axial loads in both directions in addition to radial loads. That is one of the advantages over single row bearings, which only accept axial load in one direction.
- How do I request a quote for an SKF MRC.#C bearing?
- Send the complete part number by WhatsApp, exactly as it appears on the bearing or on the drawing. If you have doubts, attach a photo or the main dimensions. We'll reply with the quote.
