The SKF TKES borescope is a visual inspection tool that allows examining internal areas of machines and components that cannot be accessed at a glance. It is used to inspect gears, bearings, cavities and ducts without disassembling the equipment. At MR Accesorios Industriales we carry it as part of our mounting and maintenance tools line, backed by an official brand we have represented for more than 80 years.
The TKES designation identifies the borescopes in the SKF line. The number that follows indicates the base model, and the -C suffix with its final number corresponds to the equipment configuration, which may include different probe lengths, tip diameters or accessories. For example, models TKES 1-C2, TKES 1-C3 and TKES 1-C5 share the same base but differ in that ending. To choose the right one, it is best to send us the complete part number shown on your equipment or in the technical documentation.
These borescopes are used in predictive and corrective maintenance tasks in industries such as food, petrochemical, cement, steel and power generation. They allow inspecting the interior of gearboxes, motors, pumps, compressors and pipes, detecting wear, corrosion, cracks or accumulated residue. They are also useful in verifying assemblies and in quality control of cast or machined parts. In Argentina, they are a common tool in plants that need to reduce unplanned downtime.
To select a TKES borescope, take into account the probe diameter, the length needed to reach the area to be inspected, the field of view and the light source. Some models include articulation to orient the tip, which makes it easier to navigate complex cavities. It is important to check that the probe is clean and free of impacts before use, and to store it in its case to avoid damage to the optics. Power supply and connection type also matter depending on the model.
SKF TKES borescopes can be found in different versions depending on the market and year of manufacture, so they are not always interchangeable with each other. If you need to replace an existing unit, the safest approach is to compare the technical specifications: diameter, length, type of lighting and accessories. At MR Accesorios Industriales we can guide you on the available alternatives within the same SKF line, always respecting the characteristics of your application. Not all -C endings are equivalent, so it is best to verify the exact part number.
If you already know which borescope you need, send us the part number via WhatsApp and we will send you the quote. If you are not sure which model is right, tell us what you want to inspect and we will help you choose. At MR Accesorios Industriales we bring more than 80 years supporting Argentine industry with mounting and maintenance tools from leading brands.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What is the difference between the TKES 1-C2, TKES 1-C3 and TKES 1-C5 models?

- Can I use the SKF TKES borescope in high-temperature environments?
- Each model has a specific operating temperature range. The probe should not be exposed to temperatures outside that range because you could damage the optics or the materials. Consult us with the equipment part number and we will indicate the recommended conditions of use.
