16005 C3 SKF Deep Groove Ball Bearing 25x47x8

Overview

SKF 16005 C3 is a single row deep groove ball bearing with increased C3 internal clearance, designed for applications operating under elevated temperatures, higher rotational speeds or thermal shaft expansion. Its slim cross section makes it suitable where radial installation space is limited while maintaining reliable load carrying capability. The bearing supports low friction, stable running accuracy and long service intervals in demanding industrial environments.

Industrial Applications

This bearing is widely used in electric motors, compact gearboxes, conveyor drives, pumps, agricultural machinery, industrial fans, packaging equipment and light transmission systems. It is suitable for OEM production, machine rebuilding, industrial service operations and preventive maintenance programs where dependable rolling bearing performance is required alongside bearing housing, shaft protection and rotary equipment reliability.

Construction

16005 C3 SKF features a precision manufactured deep raceway geometry that optimizes radial load distribution and smooth rolling performance. The increased internal clearance compensates for thermal expansion during operation, reducing preload under elevated temperatures. It is intended for grease or oil lubrication and can be installed with standard bearing housing arrangements.

Material

The bearing rings and rolling elements are manufactured from high quality bearing steel with heat treatment for excellent fatigue resistance and dimensional stability. Proper lubrication provides effective wear resistance and long operating life. Compatible lubrication systems include grease and industrial oils commonly used together with rotary shaft seal, oil seal, shaft seal, radial shaft seal, gearbox seal, transmission seal, industrial sealing and bearing housing assemblies.
