Industrial radial bearing for rotating machinery

The Tritan 6008/C3 open radial ball bearing fits a 40 mm shaft and a 68 mm housing with a 15 mm outer ring width. It is built for oily or greasy environments where a sealed unit would trap contaminants. ABEC 1 tolerance and a +0/-0.012 mm bore fit suit general-purpose industrial equipment.

Replaces worn open bearings in metric housings

Swap this unit when an existing 6008 series bearing shows excess play, noise or heat from pitted raceways. The jump is worth it when the application demands the C3 internal clearance for thermal expansion or high-speed operation. It is not for designs that require integral seals, shields or a retaining ring groove.

Alloy steel rings and AISI 52100 balls under

Dynamic radial load capacity is rated at 3,750 lbf for continuous operation in lubricated conditions. Steel cage and Grade AISI 52100 balls maintain rolling accuracy during sustained runs. Open closure allows oil circulation but offers no barrier against external debris.

Questions about this item

What shaft diameter fits the 40 mm bore with its +0/-0.012 mm tolerance?

A 40 mm shaft within the +0/-0.012 mm tolerance fits the bore; the inner ring is alloy steel grade AISI 52100.

How is the open 6008 bearing installed into a housing, and what step is often missed?

Press the 68 mm outer diameter into the housing; the missing step is adding external seals because the open closure has none.

What replacement interval applies when the bearing runs in an oily or greasy environment at 3,750 lbf dynamic load?

Replace when vibration or noise increases; the ABEC 1 steel cage and alloy-steel balls wear faster under heavy contaminated loads.
