For equipment that combines heavy radial loading with the need to hold the shaft in position axially, the SKF NUP MA series is a cylindrical roller bearing option. The NUP design locates the shaft in both directions. MR Industrial Accessories LLC supplies these bearings to customers across the United States, Canada, Mexico and South America, and can quote the exact reference you need.
Reading the part number is straightforward once you know the pattern. The NUP prefix indicates the design, then comes the series number, and the last digits give the bore. The MA suffix sits at the end. So NUP 248 MA and NUP 252 MA follow the same logic: NUP, series number, bore code, MA. When you request a quote, send the complete designation exactly as it appears on the drawing or the old bearing.
These bearings suit gearbox housings, machine tools, mining and cement equipment, steel plants and process lines where the shaft has to be fixed axially and radial loads are substantial. You will also find them in high-flow pumps, industrial fans, conveyors and material handling systems that demand rotational precision and rigidity.
Selection depends on the radial load, the operating speed and the fit called for by the application. At mounting, verify shaft-to-housing alignment, inspect the seats and confirm the lubrication method. Because the NUP series takes axial loads in both directions, review how the shaft is located and whether the bearing acts as a fixed or floating support in the assembly.
Replacing a bearing from another maker is rarely a letter-for-letter match with SKF. To resolve an equivalent, compare the complete designation, the design type and the principal dimensions. If you have the old part number or the component itself, send us that information and we will identify the corresponding SKF reference. We can also check interchangeability with other brands we carry.

Frequently asked questions
- SKF NUP 248 MA bearing: what are its dimensions?
- SKF NUP 248 MA measures 240 mm across the bore and 440 mm across the outside diameter; its width is 72 mm (240 x 440 x 72 mm). Those are the boundary dimensions standardized in ISO 15 for basic designation NUP 248.
- Where are SKF NUP MA bearings typically used?
- They are found in gearboxes, machine tools, pumps, fans and conveyors, as well as in mining, steel and process plant equipment where radial loads are high and the shaft must be fixed axially.
- How do I get a quote for an SKF NUP MA bearing?
- Send the full part number, such as NUP 248 MA or NUP 252 MA, via WhatsApp or email. If you only have another brand's number or the old part, include that and we will identify the SKF equivalent.
- Can another brand's bearing be replaced by an SKF NUP MA?
- Often yes, but the equivalent must be confirmed by comparing the complete designation and the main dimensions. The series number alone is not sufficient; the design and support type also need checking. Share the original part number and we will provide the SKF reference.
