How the 60-670-N1MAS model number is decoded

In the large-bore 6000-series, the bore is written directly after the slash as 670 mm (large thin-section bores use the slash spelling instead of the two-digit code). The envelope is 670×980×136 mm (26.378×38.583×5.354 in) with a 155.0 mm radial section height, C 904 kN, C0 2040 kN and Pu 30 kN. The open 60/670 N1MAS carries no shields or seals and relies on application lubrication and external sealing. The N1MAS suffix identifies the machined brass cage execution (special cage variant for this large thin-section size), a separate order number from the pressed-steel version. Limiting speed 900 r/min, catalogue mass 345000 g.

Typical equipment & failure modes

Common applications

  • crusher auxiliary drives
  • space-constrained gearboxes
  • clutch and transmission assemblies
  • robotics and automation joints

Known failure patterns

  • contamination wear when the open arrangement is used without external seals
  • lubricant starvation where no regreasing interval is maintained
  • rolling-contact fatigue spalling once the catalogue L10 life is exceeded
  • brinelling from static overload or hammer blows during mounting

Selection pitfalls — read before you substitute

  • The fatigue load limit is 30 kN; it feeds the equivalent-mean-load check, not the basic life calculation — do not substitute one for the other.
  • Mount by heating the inner ring (max 120 °C) — driving 60-670-N1MAS home through the outer ring or balls brinells the raceways.
  • The N1MAS execution of 60-670-N1MAS is a special machined-brass cage variant listed in catalogue 17000 for the largest thin-section sizes; confirm the exact cage feature set with SKF when ordering and servicing.
  • The N1MAS suffix on 60-670-N1MAS 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 345000 g quoted mass includes the heavier cage.
  • Open 60-670-N1MAS 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 60-670-N1MAS; run-to-failure on open deep-groove bearings is the dominant early-failure cause.

Frequently asked questions

What are the dimensions of 60-670-N1MAS?

The SKF 60/670 N1MAS measures 670 mm bore × 980 mm OD × 136 mm width (26.378 × 38.583 × 5.354 in), mass about 345000 g. It is open, with no shields or seals.

Why is there a slash in the designation 60/670 N1MAS?

The slash writes a bore that falls outside the two-digit code table: 60/670 means 670 mm bore. The site slug 60-670-N1MAS replaces the slash with a hyphen.

What is the speed rating of 60-670-N1MAS?

SKF lists a 1100 r/min thermal reference speed and a 900 r/min mechanical limiting speed for 60/670 N1MAS; real limits also depend on lubrication and fits.

What is the difference between 60-670-N1MAS and a same-bore 62-series bearing?

Section height differs: 60-670-N1MAS has a 155 mm radial section and C 904 kN; always match d, D and B — same bore alone never makes two bearings interchangeable.
