The SKF NUP 208 ECP C3 cylindrical roller bearing (40x80x18 mm) is a high-performance component designed for radial loads, controlled axial location, and demanding operating conditions. Its ECP cage and C3 clearance provide excellent reliability in high-speed or high-temperature applications. Available from our Lublin warehouse with 24h shipping, this bearing is the ideal solution for industrial B2B clients seeking quality and fast delivery.
The SKF NUP 208 ECP C3 is a single-row cylindrical roller bearing with dimensions 40 mm (inner diameter) x 80 mm (outer diameter) x 18 mm (width). The NUP design allows axial location in one direction and shaft displacement in the other, making it suitable for locating bearing arrangements.
The ECP version comes with an optimized cage (reinforced polyamide or steel), reducing friction and improving load capacity. The C3 clearance provides greater than normal internal clearance, making it ideal for high-temperature or high-speed applications.
This bearing is widely used in gearboxes, electric motors, machine tools, pumps, compressors, and various industrial drives that require high radial load capacity and controlled axial location.

High radial load capacity thanks to cylindrical roller design.
NUP configuration provides axial location in one direction.
C3 clearance ensures stability under thermal expansion and higher speeds.
ECP cage reduces friction, increases load rating, and extends service life.
Trusted SKF quality - precision, durability, and global availability.
Widely used in industrial machinery, transmissions, and electric motors.
Use proper mounting tools - avoid direct impact on raceways or rollers.
Ensure cleanliness during installation - contamination shortens service life.
Apply high-quality grease or oil suitable for speed, temperature, and load.
Respect axial positioning requirements of NUP design.
In harsh environments (dust, vibration), use protective covers or seals.
Monitor temperature, vibration, and noise - key indicators of bearing health.
