Decoding SKF 22315 EKJA/VA405
- 223Series
- Spherical roller bearings, 223 series. Series differ in outside diameter and width even when the bore is the same.
- 15Bore
- Bore 75 mm (15 × 5).
- EKJA/VA405Suffix
- SKF suffix: identifies the variant, such as seals or shields, cage, internal clearance or other features.
22315 is the standard ISO basic designation, which sets the bearing type, series and bore.
Description
SKF 22315 EKJA/VA405 measures 75 mm across the bore and 160 mm across the outside diameter; its width is 55 mm (75 x 160 x 55 mm).

For equipment that combines heavy radial loads with oscillation and shock, the SKF 223 EKJA/VA405 series delivers a self-aligning, two-row spherical roller bearing built to handle misalignment and tough conditions. MR supplies these bearings and helps you match the right size and variant to your application.
The code tells you a lot about the bearing. Take 22315 EKJA/VA405: the 223 prefix places it in the wide, high-capacity 223 series. The E points to an optimized internal design. K means a tapered bore (1:12), so it mounts with an adapter sleeve or on a tapered shaft. J is the stamped steel cage. A marks a special execution, and /VA405 is a heat-treatment variant for vibrating duty, giving greater dimensional stability and shock tolerance. Other sizes in the line include 22318 and 22320, all sharing the EKJA/VA405 suffix.
You will find these bearings in vibrating screens at mines and quarries, grain screens, jaw and cone crushers, earthmoving and road machinery, large industrial fans, process centrifugal pumps, and gearboxes exposed to vibration. The self-aligning design absorbs small shaft deflections and mounting misalignment, which helps reduce maintenance on critical equipment.
Selection depends on the radial and axial loads, speed, and fit. A tapered shaft calls for the K version, often with an adapter sleeve; a cylindrical shaft needs the non-K version. This execution is open, so proper lubrication and protection from contaminants are essential. Grease or oil can be used, depending on operating conditions. At mounting, check alignment and internal clearance—too much or too little clearance shortens service life. For vibrating applications, the VA405 suffix adds resistance.
When replacing, do not rely only on bore, outside diameter, and width. Equivalent series from other brands may differ in cage, clearance, or heat treatment, and suffixes are not always interchangeable. Check the bore type, cage, and execution suffix as well. If you are unsure, send us the complete code engraved on the bearing and we will help you identify the correct version.

Frequently asked questions
- SKF 22315 EKJA/VA405 bearing: what are its dimensions?
- SKF 22315 EKJA/VA405 measures 75 mm across the bore and 160 mm across the outside diameter; its width is 55 mm (75 x 160 x 55 mm). Those are the boundary dimensions standardized in ISO 15 for basic designation 22315.
- What does the EKJA/VA405 suffix mean?
- E stands for optimized design, K for tapered bore, J for steel sheet cage, A for special execution, and VA405 for heat treatment for vibrating applications. This combination is intended for loads with shocks.
- Can it be mounted on a cylindrical shaft?
- Not directly, because the K indicates a tapered bore. For a cylindrical shaft, you need the version without K or an adapter sleeve. Contact us for guidance.
- What lubrication do you recommend?
- It depends on speed and temperature. Generally, high-load grease or circulating oil is used. Keep the lubricant clean and at the right quantity to avoid premature wear.
