How the 16076-MA model number is decoded
In the 16000-series, the last two digits encode the bore: 16076 carries code 76 = 380 mm (code × 5). The envelope is 380×560×57 mm (14.961×22.047×2.244 in) with a 90.0 mm radial section height, C 377 kN, C0 620 kN and Pu 12.2 kN. The open 16076 MA carries no shields or seals and relies on application lubrication and external sealing. The MA suffix identifies the machined brass cage execution, a separate order number from the pressed-steel version. Limiting speed 1400 r/min, catalogue mass 51000 g. A thin section saves space but leaves little margin for misalignment or shaft deflection.
Typical equipment & failure modes
Common applications
- clutch and transmission assemblies
- robotics and automation joints
- lay shafts and idler shafts
- textile and packaging machinery
Known failure patterns
- contamination wear when the open arrangement is used without external seals
- lubricant starvation where no regreasing interval is maintained
- false brinelling from vibration while the shaft stands idle
- fretting corrosion on a creeping shaft or housing seat
Selection pitfalls — read before you substitute
- Mount by heating the inner ring (max 120 °C) — driving 16076-MA home through the outer ring or balls brinells the raceways.
- Deep-groove geometry tolerates only minutes of misalignment; if the 560 mm housing bore cannot be aligned, move to a self-aligning bearing rather than shimming 16076-MA.
- The MA suffix on 16076-MA denotes a machined brass cage: it is the choice for high speeds, marginal lubrication and shock/vibration duty, and it is temperature-tolerant where polymer cages are not — the 51000 g quoted mass includes the heavier cage.
- Open 16076-MA needs external sealing at the arrangement level; in dusty housings its life depends entirely on those external seals and the regreasing schedule.
- Plan a relubrication interval for 16076-MA; run-to-failure on open deep-groove bearings is the dominant early-failure cause.
- The fatigue load limit is 12.2 kN; it feeds the equivalent-mean-load check, not the basic life calculation — do not substitute one for the other.
Frequently asked questions
What are the dimensions of 16076-MA?
The SKF 16076 MA measures 380 mm bore × 560 mm OD × 57 mm width (14.961 × 22.047 × 2.244 in), mass about 51000 g. It is open, with no shields or seals.
How does the bore code in 16076 work?
The final two digits of 16076 are bore code 76, multiplied by 5 to give 380 mm.
Which fits should I use for 16076-MA?
With a rotating inner ring use roughly m6 on the shaft and H7 in the 560 mm housing; reverse the interference if the outer ring rotates.
How heavy is 16076-MA?
Catalogue mass is 51000 g for 16076 MA; seal and cage executions of the same envelope differ by a few grams.
