SKF steel balls of the RB series with H and G suffixes are precision rolling elements used in bearings, valves, dispensers and mechanisms that require low-friction movement. They are manufactured with high-purity steels and controlled heat treatments to ensure hardness, wear resistance and dimensional stability. MR Accesorios Industriales supplies this line for replacement and manufacturing in Argentine industry.
The designation of these balls combines the nominal diameter in millimeters or inches with two suffixes that indicate the precision grade and the material. For example, RB-11.5 H13/G10 corresponds to a ball of 11.5 mm diameter, with H13 dimensional tolerance and G10 surface quality. The code RB-17.462 H13/G10 follows the same logic for 17.462 mm. The H and G values refer to tolerance and roughness standards, not to load. Always consult the data sheet to verify the application.
These balls are used in ball bearings, check valves, metering pumps, transport systems, machine tools and packaging equipment. In Argentina, they are common in the automotive, food, chemical and metalworking industries, where replacement of rolling elements with precise specifications is required. They are also used in the manufacture of special bearings and in the repair of imported components.
To select the right ball, take into account the diameter, the precision grade (H or G) and the material. H13 tolerance is suitable for general applications, while G10 offers lower roughness and better performance at high speeds. Mounting must avoid blows that deform the sphere. Lubrication and cleanliness of the environment are critical to avoid premature wear. Verify the alignment of the assembly and the admissible load according to the design.
SKF balls are interchangeable with those of other manufacturers that comply with the same dimensional and quality standards. When replacing, compare the nominal diameter, tolerance grade and material. Do not mix balls of different grades in the same bearing, as this affects load distribution. If you need equivalents, consult us with the original code and we will advise you.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What do the H13 and G10 suffixes mean in SKF balls?
- H13 indicates the dimensional tolerance according to standard, and G10 the surface quality grade. These values define the precision of the ball. For general applications, H13 is sufficient; for high speeds or greater accuracy, G10 or higher is recommended.
- Can I replace balls from another brand with these SKF ones?
- Yes, as long as the diameter, tolerance grade and material match. SKF balls comply with international standards, so they are interchangeable with other brands of similar specification. Consult us with the original code to verify equivalents.
- How are balls mounted in a bearing?
- Mounting must be done carefully, avoiding blows that deform the sphere. It is important to clean the raceways and lubricate properly. Verify alignment and load to avoid premature failures. If you have doubts, contact us and we will advise you.
