SKF super-precision bearings are ideal for applications such as high-speed finishing stands for steel wire, racing cars engines and transmissions, and innovative fluid treatment applications. The bearings also minimise noise, vibration, and heat generation.

SKF manufactures super-precision angular contact ball bearings for shaft diameters from 6 to 360 mm. Application requirements vary, and as a result, the SKF assortment of super-precision angular contact ball bearings includes four ISO dimension series, in numerous executions. The wide selection of designs and variants enables them to be incorporated into virtually every machine tool application as well as other applications where precision bearings are required.

SKF super-precision cylindrical roller bearings are characterised by high speed capability, high radial load carrying capacity, high rigidity, low friction, and low cross-sectional height. These bearings are therefore particularly well suited for machine tool spindles where the bearing arrangement must accommodate heavy radial loads and high speeds, while providing a high degree of stiffness.

SKF double direction angular contact thrust ball bearings are designed to locate spindle shafts axially in both directions. These bearings are intended for mounting in combination with cylindrical roller bearings in the NN 30 K or N 10 K series in the same housing bore. This bearing combination simplifies machining of the housing bore.

Super-precision axial-radial cylindrical roller bearings are commonly used to support rotary tables, indexing heads and multi-spindle heads on machining centres.

Screw drives can be supported at both ends by SKF super-precision angular contact thrust ball bearings. Ensuring the screw drives can position a work piece or machine component quickly, efficiently, and precisely.

SKF has developed a full line of precision lock nuts that are manufactured within very tight tolerances. These simple to mount devices, which locate bearings and other components accurately and efficiently on a shaft, meet the requirements of machine tool applications, both technically and economically.

SKF has developed an assortment of gauges specially designed to take the accurate measurements necessary when mounting cylindrical roller bearings with a tapered bore.
