SKF RC series rollers with the C suffix are loose cylindrical rollers—the rolling elements of a cylindrical roller bearing, supplied separately. They are used to replace a full set or to build a rolling support. Ordering is by the complete designation, such as RC-8X8 C, which specifies the diameter and length in millimeters.
A loose cylindrical roller is a bearing rolling element sold on its own. It serves to replace worn or damaged rollers in a bearing that will be disassembled and reassembled, or to create guides and rolling supports in machines that do not use a complete bearing but instead have a raceway machined directly into the part.
In the SKF RC designation, the numbers indicate the roller diameter and length in millimeters: an RC-8X8 C measures 8 mm by 8 mm; an RC-20X30 CD measures 20 mm in diameter and 30 mm in length. The final suffix denotes the roller execution according to SKF and must be respected when replacing: two rollers of the same size with different suffixes are not interchangeable within the same set.
When replacing rollers, it is best to change the complete set rather than individual pieces. Rollers with uneven wear distribute the load poorly, and the tallest one carries the load alone, which is the quickest way to damage the assembly again. Also inspect the raceways: if they show marks or flaking, the new roller will not last long.
To request a quote, send the complete designation as shown on the product page, including the suffix, and the quantity of rollers in the set via WhatsApp or email. If you do not have the code, the diameter, length, and a photo of the roller or the bearing it comes from are sufficient. Our team replies promptly and can suggest equivalents and help you choose.

Frequently asked questions
- What do the numbers in an SKF RC roller mean?
- The diameter and length of the roller in millimeters. An RC-15X15 CD has a 15 mm diameter and a 15 mm length.
- Can I replace just one roller in the set?
- It is not advisable. The complete set should be changed, because rollers with different wear distribute the load poorly.
- How do I request a quote for these rollers?
- Send the complete designation with the suffix and the quantity of rollers via WhatsApp or email. We will reply shortly.
