For equipment built around inch-dimension shafts, SKF inch deep groove ball bearings provide a straightforward solution that handles both radial and axial loads. The single-row, steel-ring design makes them adaptable across many industrial settings. MR Industrial Accessories supplies this SKF line and can help you match the right bearing to your application.
Inch bearings from SKF typically carry a four-digit designation, for example 1600 or 1613. The first pair of digits identifies the bearing type, while the last pair gives the bore size in sixteenths of an inch. So 1600 corresponds to a 1 inch bore (16/16), and 1613 to a 13/16 inch bore. This coding lets you determine the size quickly without reaching for a caliper.
These bearings appear in food processing, textile, woodworking and metallurgical operations, as well as in conveyors, fans, pumps, mixers and agricultural machinery. Because they accommodate radial and axial forces, they suit equipment that needs to run smoothly and consistently, even in continuous duty.
Selection depends on the shaft diameter in inches, the load involved and the operating environment. Pay attention to sealing: open bearings permit higher speeds but call for regular lubrication, whereas sealed or shielded types keep lubricant in and contaminants out. When mounting, align the components carefully and avoid impacts that could harm the raceways. Use the lubricant specified by the manufacturer to support service life.
Inch bearings from different brands can often be swapped if the critical dimensions match: bore, outer diameter and width. SKF's range includes controlled tolerances, which simplifies replacement in existing machinery. For a substitution, verify the measurements and sealing style to confirm compatibility. MR Industrial Accessories can assist in locating a suitable equivalent.

Frequently asked questions
- How do I determine the size of an inch bearing?
- The four-digit code tells you the bore: the last two digits are sixteenths of an inch. For instance, 1600 has a 1 inch bore and 1613 has a 13/16 inch bore. It's still wise to confirm with a caliper.
- What distinguishes a sealed bearing from an open one?
- Sealed or shielded bearings have features that hold lubricant in and keep contaminants out, which suits dirty environments. Open bearings run at higher speeds and are easier to relubricate, but they need more frequent attention. Your choice depends on the application.
- Is it possible to replace an inch bearing with a metric one?
- Not as a direct swap, since the dimensions won't align. An equivalent must be another inch bearing with the same measurements. Contact us with the part number or dimensions and we'll help you find the right option.
