Decoding SKF NU 1030 ML/C3
- NU 10Series
- Cylindrical roller bearings, NU 10 series. Series differ in outside diameter and width even when the bore is the same.
- 30Bore
- Bore 150 mm (30 × 5).
- ML/C3Suffix
- SKF suffix: identifies the variant, such as seals or shields, cage, internal clearance or other features.
NU 1030 is the standard ISO basic designation, which sets the bearing type, series and bore.
Description
SKF NU 1030 ML/C3 measures 150 mm across the bore and 225 mm across the outside diameter; its width is 35 mm (150 x 225 x 35 mm).

The SKF NU series covers cylindrical roller bearings built for high radial loads and elevated speeds. Their cylindrical rollers run in a machined brass cage, a combination that suits demanding machinery. MR Industrial Accessories LLC supplies this line to customers in the United States and several Latin American countries.
Reading the code helps you order the right variant. NU means the outer ring carries two ribs while the inner ring has none, so the rings can shift axially relative to each other. The middle digits give the dimension series. ML points to a machined brass cage, chosen for high speeds and high temperatures. The C suffix states internal radial clearance, for instance C3 for clearance above normal. Typical designations include NU 1010 ML/C3, NU 1020 ML/C3 and NU 1024 ML/C3.
These bearings appear in gearboxes, machine tools, pumps, compressors, large electric motors and mining equipment. Because they handle heavy radial loads and run well at speed, they are common in the metallurgical, cement and food industries, as well as on rolling mill rolls and precision machine spindles.
Selection comes down to three inputs: the radial load, the operating speed and the surrounding conditions. Choose the ML cage when temperatures and speeds are high. Specify C3 clearance where a large thermal difference exists between the inner and outer rings. At assembly, check alignment and lubrication carefully. Since the NU design permits axial movement, it does not need to be axially fixed in both directions.
For interchangeability, bearings that follow the same dimensional and execution designation can serve as replacements. Confirm that both the cage suffix and the internal clearance match what the application needs. Principal dimensions are often interchangeable, but load and speed capacities can differ from one manufacturer to another, so review the technical data before substituting a bearing.

Frequently asked questions
- SKF NU 1030 ML/C3 bearing: what are its dimensions?
- SKF NU 1030 ML/C3 measures 150 mm across the bore and 225 mm across the outside diameter; its width is 35 mm (150 x 225 x 35 mm). Those are the boundary dimensions standardized in ISO 15 for basic designation NU 1030.
- What does the ML suffix mean in an NU bearing?
- ML identifies a one-piece machined brass cage centered on the rollers. It withstands high speeds and elevated temperatures and is stronger than a stamped steel cage.
- When is C3 internal clearance recommended?
- C3 is recommended for elevated operating temperatures or interference fits that reduce clearance, and where greater tolerance to differential thermal expansion between the inner and outer rings is needed.
- Do NU bearings allow axial displacement?
- Yes. The outer ring has two ribs and the inner ring none, so the ring and shaft can shift axially. That makes the NU design suitable for floating supports.
