SKF BASIC BEARING AND

APPLICATIONS
By Arianto Nugroho
Rolling Bearing Main Classifications

SKF Group Slide 3 11 March, 2015

In general (with the same load conditions)

a. Bearing with Balls rolling element

- Has higher speed limit
- Has higher pressure contact
Lower load carrying capacity

b. Bearing with Rollers rolling element

- Has lower speed limit
- Has lower pressure contact
Higher load carrying capacity

 Bearings Arrangement System

Depending on the application, loads, requisite running accuracy

and cost considerations, various bearing systems can be
designed:
- a locating/non-locating bearing system
- an adjusted bearing system
- a floating bearing system

 Clearance Set Up
Clearance Set up usually applied on :
- Self Aligning Bearing (SRB & SABB) with tapper bore
- Pair of Tapper Roller Bearing/Angular Contact Ball Bearing

Drive-up data for spherical roller bearings with a
tapered bore

Example: 22220 EK/C3

- Initial Radial Clearance (actual)
= 130 micron
- Reduction of Internal Radial
Clearance during mounting
process = 45 micron
- Final Radial Clearance = 130
45 = 85 micron
