How to read SKF NU 2348 ECMA/C3
- NU 23Series
- Cylindrical roller bearings, NU 23 series. For the same bore, each series has a different outside diameter and width.
- 48Bore
- 240 mm bore: 48 × 5.
- ECMA/C3Suffix
- SKF suffix: it defines the variant (sealing, cage, internal clearance or other features).
NU 2348 is the standard (ISO) basic designation: it defines the type, the series and the bore.

SKF NU ECMA/C series cylindrical roller bearings are components designed to withstand high radial loads and high speeds. Their cylindrical roller design and machined brass cage allow precise operation in demanding applications. They are used in industrial machinery, gearboxes, pumps and power transmission equipment. At MR Accesorios Industriales we supply them as part of our SKF bearing line, with technical advice to choose the right configuration.
The designation of these bearings is interpreted as follows: NU indicates that the outer ring has two ribs and the inner ring none, so they only support radial loads and allow axial displacement. ECMA indicates an optimized design with a one-piece machined brass cage, roller-guided, and C3 indicates an internal radial clearance greater than standard. Examples in the series are NU 2256 ECMA/C3, NU 2348 ECMA/C3 and NU 2356 ECMA/C3, where the numbers following NU indicate the size and the dimension series.
These bearings are used in applications where radial load is predominant and high precision is required. In Argentina, they are common in speed reducers, gearboxes, centrifugal pumps, compressors, machine tools and mining and cement equipment. They are also found in large electric motors and mill drives. Their ability to withstand high radial loads makes them suitable for severe industrial environments, where reliability and durability are critical.
To select the right bearing, take into account the radial load, rotational speed and environmental conditions. The C3 suffix is recommended when thermal expansion due to temperature or mounting fits is expected. Lubrication must be chosen according to speed and working temperature; for high speeds, synthetic lubricants are preferred. Mounting requires precise alignment and cleanliness of the seat, and it is essential to check the radial clearance after installation. The machined brass cage provides strength and allows higher speeds.
Regarding equivalents, cylindrical roller bearings from other brands with similar designations may be interchangeable, but always verify dimensions and tolerances. SKF's NU ECMA/C series is distinguished by its brass cage and C3 clearance. When looking for alternatives, compare load capacity and internal design. At MR Accesorios Industriales we can advise you on interchangeability and available options.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What are the dimensions of the SKF NU 2348 ECMA/C3 bearing?
- The SKF NU 2348 ECMA/C3 bearing has a 240 mm bore, a 500 mm outside diameter and a 155 mm width (240 x 500 x 155 mm). These are the standardised boundary dimensions (ISO 15) of the basic designation NU 2348.
- What does the C3 suffix mean in these bearings?
- The C3 suffix indicates an internal radial clearance greater than standard. It is used when there is thermal expansion due to temperature differences between shaft and housing, or when specific mounting fits are required. It is important to verify operating conditions to choose the right clearance.
- Where are NU ECMA/C3 bearings used?
- They are used in applications with high radial loads and high speeds, such as gearboxes, pumps, compressors, machine tools and mining equipment. Their design allows good performance in demanding industrial environments, provided correct mounting and lubrication are carried out.
- How do I request a quote for these bearings?
- You can send us the complete bearing part number via WhatsApp. At MR Accesorios Industriales we will reply with the quote. If you are not sure of the part number, we can help you identify it based on dimensions or application.
