Commercial Solutions Bearing Interchange

LAST UPDATED MAY 3, 2007

Single and Double Row Angular Contact Bearings are the most difficult and complex to successfully substitute across manufacturers because there is no industry standard. Angular contact bearings are more complex because of the many different internal clearances, preloads, cage designs and materials that are available for specific applications. Not all of the major bearing manufacturers use the same prefixes or suffixes to establish the internal differences.

Angular contacts that have not been supplied correctly have been the main cause of many expensive bearing failures. This catalog has been developed to help take the mystery out of this complicated area.

We are pleased to provide you with this online version of our Angular Contact Catalog. This catalog is designed with the most current information available, and to assist distribution to select the correct bearing. It is also a recommended resource for maintenance and maintenance engineers.

This edition contains accurate interchange information on Single and Double Row Angular Contact Bearings, as well as for MRC Double Row Angular Contact Ball Bearings. You can quickly access the interchange data for a specific bearing from the Index by Series page, available from the menu on every page.
