SKF plain bearings of the PCM E series are thin-walled bushings with a sliding coating, designed to withstand radial loads in oscillating or limited-rotation movements. They are used in joints, pivots and guides where low friction and minimal maintenance are required. MR Accesorios Industriales sells this line as part of its range of components for power transmission and motion.
The designation PCM identifies SKF plain bearings with a steel backing and a sliding layer. The numbers that follow indicate the dimensions in millimeters: the first two digits correspond to the bore diameter, the next two to the outside diameter and the last two to the width. For example, PCM 050705 E has a 5 mm bore, 7 mm outside diameter and 5 mm width. The suffix E indicates a variant with specific sliding layer characteristics, such as greater wear resistance or better performance under load conditions. The examples PCM 050708 E and PCM 060806 E show how the dimensions vary depending on the application.
These bushings are used in a wide variety of industries in Argentina: from agricultural machinery and road equipment to packaging lines, forklifts and lifting systems. They are common in hydraulic cylinder joints, crane arms, wheel axles and steering mechanisms. Their compact design allows replacing bronze bushings or bearings in tight spaces, with the advantage of not requiring additional lubrication in many applications. They are also used in material handling equipment and in the food industry, where cleanliness is critical.
To select the right bushing, take into account the radial load, the sliding speed and the type of movement (oscillating or rotating). The PCM E series is intended for moderate loads and operating temperatures within a standard range. During assembly, ensure correct alignment between the shaft and the housing; excessive misalignment accelerates wear. Sealing of the assembly is key to prevent the entry of contaminants. If the movement is continuous, verify that lubrication is adequate according to the manufacturer. Cleaning the contact surfaces before installation extends service life.
Regarding equivalences, SKF PCM E plain bearings can be interchanged with products from other manufacturers that follow the same dimensional designation and type of sliding layer. However, not all thin-walled bushings are the same: always verify the tolerances and the material of the sliding layer before replacing. MR Accesorios Industriales sells the SKF brand as part of its line of components, and can advise you on compatibility with other brands it distributes.
If you need to replace a plain bearing, send us the complete code by WhatsApp to MR Accesorios Industriales. With the designation PCM 050705 E or the one shown on your equipment, we can identify the part and quote it. We can also help you select the correct variant for your application.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What does the E suffix mean in SKF PCM bushings?
- The E suffix indicates a specific variant of the sliding layer, generally with better friction properties or wear resistance. It does not change the external dimensions, but it does affect performance. Check with MR to confirm suitability for your application.
- Do these bushings need lubrication?
- PCM E bushings usually have a self-lubricating coating that reduces the need for maintenance. However, in high-load or high-speed applications, additional lubrication may be required. Follow the manufacturer's recommendations and check with MR if you have doubts.
- How do I choose the correct bushing size?
- Measure the shaft diameter, the housing diameter and the available width. The PCM designation indicates these measurements in millimeters. If space allows, choose the width that supports the calculated load. MR can help you select the exact code.
