Decoding SKF 6316/HC5C3S0
- 63Series
- Deep groove ball bearings, 63 series. Series differ in outside diameter and width even when the bore is the same.
- 16Bore
- Bore 80 mm (16 × 5).
- HC5C3S0Suffix
- SKF suffix: identifies the variant, such as seals or shields, cage, internal clearance or other features.
6316 is the standard ISO basic designation, which sets the bearing type, series and bore.
Description
SKF 6316/HC5C3S0 measures 80 mm across the bore and 170 mm across the outside diameter; its width is 39 mm (80 x 170 x 39 mm).

For rotating equipment that needs to handle combined radial and axial loads, the SKF deep groove ball bearing is a common choice. Its single row of balls and deep raceways allow it to run at high speeds. MR Industrial Accessories supplies this bearing and can help you confirm the right part number for your application.
The part number tells you what you are getting, so it pays to read the suffixes. Take 6316/HC5C3S0: the numeric prefix identifies the size and dimensional series, HC5 means the bearing uses high-strength ceramic balls, C3 indicates radial clearance greater than standard, and S0 points to a special heat treatment for dimensional stability. These codes let you match the bearing to specific operating conditions.
You will find deep groove ball bearings in pumps, fans, electric motors, conveyor belts and precision machinery across industries such as food processing, petrochemicals, steel and mining. Because they support combined loads and run at high speeds, they fit many rotating equipment applications in production plants.
Selection depends on load, speed and the environment. The right sealing keeps contamination out and lubricant in. Radial clearance should suit the temperature and fit, and lubrication can be grease or oil. Make sure the supports are aligned to avoid extra stresses, and use suitable tools during mounting to help extend service life.
Deep groove ball bearings from different brands can sometimes be interchanged when dimensions and tolerances match, but always check the suffixes. They indicate features such as internal clearance or cage type, and not every part number is a direct replacement. Verify the technical specifications before substituting.

Frequently asked questions
- SKF 6316/HC5C3S0 bearing: what are its dimensions?
- SKF 6316/HC5C3S0 measures 80 mm across the bore and 170 mm across the outside diameter; its width is 39 mm (80 x 170 x 39 mm). Those are the boundary dimensions standardized in ISO 15 for basic designation 6316.
- What does the HC5 suffix mean in the designation?
- HC5 indicates that the bearing has ceramic balls (silicon nitride) instead of steel. This reduces weight, allows higher speeds and improves resistance to corrosion and high temperatures.
- What is the difference between C3 clearance and standard?
- C3 radial clearance is greater than standard, which compensates for thermal expansion and helps in applications with high temperatures or interference fits. Choose clearance based on operating conditions.
- How do I know if I can replace a bearing from another brand with this SKF one?
- Compare the main dimensions (bore, outer diameter and width) and confirm that suffixes for clearance, cage and sealing match. If unsure, send us the original part number and we will advise you.
