in Angular Contact Bearings
SKF's angular contact ball bearings have raceways in the inner and outer rings that are displaced with respect to each other in the direction of the bearing axis. This means that SKF angular contact ball bearings are designed to accommodate combined loads (simultaneously acting radial and axial loads). Models include single row angular contact ball bearings, double angular contact ball bearings, and four-point contact ball bearings. SKF also distributes MRC aftermarket industrial bearing products.
-
in Ball Bearings
The SKF ball bearing line-up includes deep groove, angular contact, angular contact thrust, self aligning and thrust types. Other offerings include cylindrical, tapered, needle and spherical roller bearings. SKF has a standard line of deep groove ball bearings that feature single row or double row configurations, come in stainless steel or hybrid designs, and can handle high temperatures. SKF angular contact ball bearings can accommodate combined radial and axial loads, and come in single row or double row designs. The self aligning design was invented by SKF. These come in open and sealed configurations. Thrust type ball bearings are offered in single or double direction types. Double direction types must not be subjected to radial loads. SKF also distributes MRC aftermarket industrial bearing products.
-
in Bearing Housings
SKF USA's line of bearing housings includes split plummer block housings, one-piece plummer block housing, flanged housing, take-up housings, and general bearing housings. The take-up housing are designed for belt conveyors and feature diameters of 50 mm to 400 mm. The plummer housings accommodate heavy loads and can be used for spherical roller bearings and CARB bearings. The general bearing housings are used within paper machines, conveyor equipment, rotary kilns, drums, tube mills, converters, large electrical machines, and rail vehicles.
-
in Bushings
SKF offers composite dry sliding, FW, and flanged bushings constructed from one of several materials. Dry sliding bushings, made of B/E material, are suitable for rotational and oscillating movements where space is limited. No lubrication is required. SKF FW bushings are meant for rotational and linear movements under relatively heavy radial loads, especially where alternating, shock or oscillating loads occur.
-
in Cam Followers
SKF is a manufacturer of cam followers consisting of an outer ring and three integral flanges that axially guide the two rows of full complement rollers separately to minimize friction in the cam follower. This reduces the amount of heat generated by the bearing. The stud head and pressed-on flange ring provide axial guidance for the outer ring via the rollers. This enables SKF cam followers to accommodate constant axial loads that occur when cam followers operate in an inclined position. They also carry MRC bearing products.
-
in Composite Bearings
SKF Inc. designs and manufactures composite dry sliding bearings made of triple-layer composite materials or filament-wound composite materials. The bearings are used for rotational, oscillating, or linear movements under radial load. The company also offers flanged dry sliding bushings.
-
in Composite Bushings
SKF USA's offers composite dry sliding bushings, FW bushings, composite dry sliding flanged bushings, composite dry sliding thrust washers, and composite dry sliding strips. The composite dry sliding bushings are intended for radially-loaded bearing arrangements and feature bore diameter ranging from 4mm to 160mm. The FW bushings feature bore diameter tolerance that corresponds to tolerance C10, and outside diameter tolerance of s8.
-
in Conveyor Roller Bearings

-
in Thrust Roller Bearings
SKF is a supplier of cylindrical, needle, tapered and spherical roller thrust bearings. Cylindrical designs can support heavy axial loads. Needle designs can accommodate axial loads acting in one direction only. Tapered roller thrust bearings can carry very heavy axial loads and are insensitive to shock loads. With spherical designs the load is transmitted from one raceway to the other at an angle to the bearing axis.
