How to Read an SKF Bearing Number
Every SKF bearing part number is built from a prefix (bearing type), a basic number (dimensions and bore size), and one or more suffixes (seals, clearance, cage, and other features). Multiply the last two digits of the basic number by 5 to get the bore diameter in millimeters. Special bore codes: 00 = 10mm, 01 = 12mm, 02 = 15mm, 03 = 17mm.

6 Deep groove ball • 2 Light series • 05 25mm bore • 2RS1 NBR seals both sides • C3 Greater than normal clearance
NU 2216 ECP/C3
NU Cylindrical roller • 22 Dimension series • 16 80mm bore • EC Optimized design • P Polyamide cage • C3 Greater than normal clearance
