The SKF 6302/C3 is an open single row deep groove ball bearing designed to provide efficient shaft support and smooth rotation. It accommodates radial loads and axial loads in both directions while maintaining low friction. Its C3 internal clearance makes it suitable for equipment where greater than normal clearance is required.
Design and Construction
The SKF 6302/C3 features deep raceway grooves and a single row of steel balls guided by a stamped steel cage. Its bearing steel construction provides strength and supports effective load distribution during operation.
With dimensions of 15x42x13mm, the bearing offers a robust arrangement for machinery requiring the standard 6302 size.
C3 Internal Clearance and Open Design
The bearing features C3 radial internal clearance, which is greater than normal clearance. This helps compensate for reductions in internal clearance caused by interference fits and temperature differences between the inner and outer rings.
Its open design without seals or shields allows grease or oil to reach the rolling elements directly. Suitable external sealing may be required to protect the bearing against contamination and lubricant loss.
Applications
The SKF 6302/C3 can be considered for machinery where its dimensions and increased internal clearance meet the operating requirements.
Electric motors
Industrial pumps
Fans and ventilation systems
Machine tools
Automated machinery
General industrial equipment
Benefits
The SKF 6302/C3 provides several practical advantages.
Low Friction: Supports smooth rotation while helping reduce mechanical energy losses.
C3 Internal Clearance: Helps compensate for changes in operating clearance caused by shaft fits and temperature differences.
Combined Load Support: Accommodates radial loads and axial loads in both directions.
High Speed Capability: Its deep groove construction supports efficient operation at relatively high rotational speeds.
Flexible Lubrication: Open construction allows direct grease or oil lubrication.
Robust Construction: Bearing steel components and deep raceways provide effective load support under suitable operating conditions.
Bearing Selection
Before purchasing, confirm that the 15x42x13mm dimensions and C3 internal clearance match your equipment requirements.
Operating loads and speeds should be checked alongside shaft and housing fits. Lubrication and contamination exposure are also important. If normal internal clearance or integrated sealing is required, a different SKF 6302 variant may be more suitable.
