SKF NU series cylindrical roller bearings with machined brass cage are components designed to withstand high radial loads and considerable speeds. Their separable design and axial displacement capability make them ideal for applications requiring high rigidity and precision, such as industrial machinery, gearboxes and power transmission equipment. MR Accesorios Industriales carries this line as part of its extensive bearing catalog.
The NU designation indicates a cylindrical roller bearing with two ribs on the outer ring and none on the inner ring, which allows relative axial displacement between ring and shaft. The suffixes MA and C3 provide key information: MA indicates a machined brass cage, highly resistant and suitable for high speeds and temperatures; C3 specifies an internal radial clearance greater than standard, useful when there are interference fits or thermal gradients. For example, NU 248 MA/C3 combines these features in a specific size of the 248 series.
These bearings are used in applications that require withstanding heavy radial loads and high speeds, such as gearboxes, large electric motors, centrifugal pumps, industrial fans and machine tools. In Argentina, they are common in the steel, cement, mining and pulp and paper industries, where reliability and load capacity are critical. They are also found in power transmission equipment and rolling mill rolls.
To correctly select an NU MA/C3 bearing, take into account the radial load, rotation speed and environmental conditions. The machined brass cage offers greater fatigue resistance and allows higher speeds than stamped steel cages. C3 clearance is recommended when the shaft fit is an interference fit or when the operating temperature is high. It is essential to ensure precise alignment between shaft and housing, and adequate lubrication, whether with grease or oil, depending on the application.
Regarding equivalences, SKF NU series cylindrical roller bearings with brass cage and C3 clearance can be interchanged with products from other brands that follow the same standardized designation. However, dimensions and load capacities may vary slightly between manufacturers, so it is always advisable to verify the product page of the specific product. MR Accesorios Industriales carries genuine SKF bearings, guaranteeing the quality and backing of the brand.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What are the dimensions of the SKF NU 1060 MA/C3 bearing?
- The SKF NU 1060 MA/C3 bearing has a 300 mm bore, a 460 mm outside diameter and a 74 mm width (300 x 460 x 74 mm). These are the standardised boundary dimensions (ISO 15) of the basic designation NU 1060.
- What does the MA suffix mean in an NU bearing?
- MA indicates that the bearing has a machined brass cage, which offers greater resistance and allows higher speeds than stamped steel cages. It is common in demanding applications.
- What is the purpose of C3 radial clearance?
- C3 clearance is an internal radial clearance greater than standard. It is used when there are interference fits, thermal gradients or compensation needs, to prevent the bearing from operating preloaded.
- Can I replace an NU bearing from another brand with an SKF one?
- Yes, as long as the main dimensions and standardized designation match. However, verify load capacities and tolerances, as they may vary between manufacturers. Contact us on WhatsApp for advice.
