16013 C3 NSK ball bearing 65x100x11

Application in compact industrial systems

16013 C3 NSK is a single row deep groove ball bearing with dimensions 65x100x11 mm, designed for applications requiring reduced cross section and compact installation space. Within the NSK ball bearing category, this model belongs to the thin section 16000 series, optimized for lightweight and space saving designs.

The 65x100x11 ball bearing is commonly used in gearboxes, electric motors, industrial machinery and drive systems where limited axial space is available. Its slim profile allows engineers to design more compact assemblies without compromising essential load carrying performance.

Design features, 16000 series and C3 clearance

The 16013 C3 NSK bearing features deep raceway grooves that support radial loads and moderate axial loads in both directions. The thin section design reduces bearing width while maintaining reliable operational characteristics.

The C3 internal clearance indicates increased radial internal clearance, recommended for higher operating temperatures, higher speeds or tighter shaft fits. Precision manufactured raceways and rolling elements contribute to stable rotation, reduced vibration and consistent performance under industrial operating conditions.

The bearing can operate as a standalone component or as part of a complete bearing unit installed in a properly selected bearing housing.
