For equipment that must hold shaft position while carrying both radial and axial forces, the SKF CBM series is a single row angular contact bearing family with offset raceways. Each bearing takes axial load in one direction. Typical service includes machine tool spindles, pumps and compressors, and the series sits within the SKF bearing line we supply to maintenance and purchasing teams.
Reading the code is the first step. The basic number identifies size and dimension series, so 7418 CBM is a 74 series bearing with a bore diameter set by that code. The CBM suffix covers design and cage details, including contact angle and a machined brass cage. Suffixes change with configuration, so confirm the exact variant against SKF product tables before ordering.
These bearings appear in metalworking, petrochemical and food processing plants. Common mounting points include milling and grinding spindles, process centrifugal pumps and screw compressors, plus gearboxes and transmission cases where axial forces are present. High speed capability and rigidity suit equipment that depends on precise shaft position.
Selection comes down to the axial load to be carried, the rotational speed and the lubrication conditions. Mounting calls for correct alignment and control of internal clearance, often by pairing bearings in tandem, back-to-back or face-to-face arrangement. Some models are sealed or shielded; open versions depend on external lubrication, with grease or oil chosen for the application.
Interchange is possible with bearings from other makers that share the same dimensional designation, such as FAG, NSK or NTN, once tolerances and contact angle are checked. Suffixes do not always line up between manufacturers, so have a specialist validate the alternative before substitution.

Frequently asked questions
- What does the CBM suffix indicate on an SKF bearing?
- It identifies design and cage characteristics, such as the contact angle and the machined brass cage. Check SKF technical documentation for the exact details of a given model.
- How are angular contact bearings mounted?
- They are usually installed in pairs, in tandem, back-to-back or face-to-face arrangement, to set internal clearance and rigidity. Alignment must be correct and manufacturer recommendations followed to avoid premature failure.
- Can an SKF bearing be replaced by another brand?
- Yes, when the dimensional designation matches and tolerances and contact angle are verified. FAG, NSK or NTN may offer equivalents, but suffixes are not always interchangeable. Contact us to validate the alternative.
