Deep Groove Ball Bearings SKF 6410 /C3

The SKF 6410/C3 deep groove ball bearing (50x130x31 mm) offers increased C3 clearance and is designed to accommodate predominantly radial loads at higher operating temperatures.

The 6410/C3 deep groove ball bearing is a single-row rolling bearing manufactured by SKF with an inside diameter of 50 mm, an outside diameter of 130 mm and a width of 31 mm. Thanks to the robust design of the 64 series, it can withstand considerable radial forces as well as axial forces in both directions. This version features a sheet steel cage to guide the balls and complies with the specifications of tolerance class P0/PN or ABEC 1.

In which operating conditions is the 6410/C3 deep groove ball bearing used?

This radial ball bearing is designed for industrial applications involving high mechanical and thermal loads, where shafts must be securely supported. Typical applications are found in general mechanical engineering at bearing locations where temperature differences arise between the inner and outer rings during operation. The open design without sealing washers is suitable for protected installation spaces where lubrication is provided via an existing oil bath or continuous grease lubrication.

What is the function of the increased radial clearance (C3) in the 64 series?

The additional designation C3 indicates a slightly increased radial bearing clearance compared with the standard version. This additional radial clearance serves to compensate for operational thermal expansion of the shaft and rings without causing internal stress in the rolling elements. A temperature range of -20 to +150 degrees is permissible for operation. As no factory-fitted sealing elements are installed, the bearing housing must be protected from dirt and lubricant loss by the surrounding casing.
