Description

The GE 20 C from SKF is a radial spherical plain bearing with robust design and reliable performance. Constructed with an inner and outer ring of hardened steel and a contact surface of steel and bronze, it offers resistance to wear and corrosion. Thanks to these characteristics, it requires minimal lubrication, thus simplifying maintenance.

Materials and Construction

• Ring Material: Hardened steel, coupled with a bronze coating to reduce friction and resist wear.
• Lubrication: Requires periodic lubrication; it is compatible with industrial grease-based lubricants (e.g. SKF LGEP 2 grease for high pressure applications).

Mechanical Characteristics

This model can support heavy loads and handle oscillating movements even in misaligned conditions, thanks to its ability to tolerate dynamic loads up to 39 kN and static loads up to 197 kN.

Application Sectors

Mainly used in industrial fields such as:

• Construction machinery
• Agricultural plants
• Mining and steel sectors

Assembly and Maintenance

To correctly mount the GE 20 C, we recommend following the SKF guidelines, using precision tools and respecting the torque indications to avoid damage during installation. It is also essential to ensure that you use suitable lubricants to ensure optimal operation and bearing life.

Price and Availability

The average price for a GE 20 C bearing is around €15-20, with availability at authorized resellers or ready for delivery at mechanical component warehouses. For a quick and guaranteed purchase, purchasing from stock can be advantageous as it reduces machine downtime and always guarantees access to spare parts.
