Decoding SKF C 3140
- C 31Series
- CARB roller bearings, C 31 series. Series differ in outside diameter and width even when the bore is the same.
- 40Bore
- Bore 200 mm (40 × 5).
C 3140 is the standard ISO basic designation, which sets the bearing type, series and bore.
Description
SKF C 3140 measures 200 mm across the bore and 340 mm across the outside diameter; its width is 112 mm (200 x 340 x 112 mm).

SKF CARB roller bearings are self-aligning radial units with one row of rollers. They handle combined loads and compensate angular misalignment, which suits equipment where shaft deflection or mounting errors are present. MR Industrial Accessories supplies the SKF line and can help you confirm the right part number.
The part number starts with C followed by four digits. The first two digits give the dimension series and the last two relate to the bore diameter. For instance, C 2216 is series 22; C 2314 is series 23; C 3040 is series 30. Suffixes may point to cage, tolerance or internal design variants, so always check the manufacturer's data sheet for the exact characteristics of each item.
These bearings appear in food, chemical, cement and steel operations, especially where shafts deflect or alignment is difficult. Typical equipment includes belt drives, centrifugal pumps, fans, mixers and conveyors. The self-aligning capability lowers the risk of premature failure from misalignment and makes mounting easier on long shafts or separate supports.
When selecting a CARB bearing, review radial and axial loads, speed, lubrication and sealing. The bearing allows angular misalignment, but stay within the manufacturer's limits. Mounting calls for shafts and housings with suitable tolerances. Lubrication can be grease or oil, and sealing depends on the environment. Correct initial alignment extends service life even though the bearing compensates for later misalignment.
For replacements, SKF CARB bearings can be interchanged with products from other manufacturers that use similar designations, but these codes are not universally standardized. Each brand may have its own nomenclature and capacities. Always verify dimensions, load capacity and design features in the relevant catalog, not just the similarity of the code.

Frequently asked questions
- SKF C 3140 bearing: what are its dimensions?
- SKF C 3140 measures 200 mm across the bore and 340 mm across the outside diameter; its width is 112 mm (200 x 340 x 112 mm). Those are the boundary dimensions standardized in ISO 15 for basic designation C 3140.
- What does the C designation mean in CARB bearings?
- The letter C indicates a CARB bearing, a self-aligning roller bearing type. The following numbers give the dimension series and bore size. For example, C 2216 is series 22 with a specific bore diameter.
- Do SKF CARB bearings allow misalignment?
- Yes, CARB bearings compensate for angular misalignment between shaft and housing. This suits applications where shaft deflection or mounting errors can cause misalignment. Respect the limits specified by the manufacturer.
- How do I request a quote for SKF CARB bearings?
- Send the complete bearing part number by WhatsApp or email to MR Industrial Accessories. Our technical team verifies the designation and provides a quote. We can also advise if you need help identifying the right product.
