How the 61907 model number is decoded
In the 61900-series (ISO 15 diameter series 9) the last two digits encode the bore: 61907 carries bore code 07 = 35 mm. Outside diameter 55 mm and width 10 mm come from the ISO 15 boundary-dimensions general plan. With no seal suffix the bearing is open: no shields or seals are fitted and lubrication is supplied by the application. For normal-load mounting with a rotating inner ring on a 35 mm shaft, typical catalogue practice is a k5 shaft seat with an H7 housing bore — verify against the actual load direction and magnitude. In the SKF catalogue this open execution carries the bare designation; protected variants are ordered separately as -2Z and -2RSH.
Typical equipment & failure modes
Common applications
- packaging machinery
- space-constrained gearboxes
- clutch and transmission assemblies
- robotics and automation joints
Known failure patterns
- contamination wear from dust and dirt ingress through the open arrangement
- lubricant starvation when no regreasing interval is maintained
- cage damage from operation beyond the limiting speed
- electrical pitting in VFD-driven motors without grounding protection
Selection pitfalls — read before you substitute
- At a 35 mm bore, a shaft-seat burr or an overtight setscrew can score the thin inner ring of 61907; check shaft finish and runout (target Ra ≤ 1.6 µm) before pressing it home.
- The 619xx thin section (10.0 mm section height at 35 mm bore) trades load capacity for compactness; stiff, accurately aligned seats are essential or edge loading will spall the raceway early.
- The open 61907 has no lubricant retention: grease escapes and contaminants migrate straight into the 35×55×10 mm raceway, so specify a sealed arrangement for dusty or washdown duty.
- Open bearings tolerate the highest speeds in the 61900-series but need a defined regreasing interval; run-to-failure lubrication is the dominant cause of early failure in open 61907 units.
- Shaft and housing fillets must clear the bearing chamfer so the 10 mm-wide ring seats square; provide an undercut or withdrawal groove instead of relying on an oversized radius.
- The open 61907 needs external sealing and application-supplied lubrication; in the SKF catalogue the protected variants are separate order numbers 61907-2Z (shields) and 61907-2RSH (contact seals), not suffix-free 61907.
- The 10.8/7.8 kN ratings here are SKF Explorer-class figures from catalogue PUB BU/P1 17000/1 EN (Oct 2018); SKF can revise internal geometry and ratings without changing the designation, so treat the catalogue version and date as part of the specification and re-verify for critical drives.
Frequently asked questions
What are the dimensions of a 61907 bearing?
A 61907 deep-groove ball bearing has a 35 mm bore, 55 mm outer diameter and 10 mm width (1.378 × 2.165 × 0.394 in), per ISO 15 boundary dimensions. It is an open bearing with no seals or shields. Geometry-based estimated mass is about 72 g for a steel-cage unit; catalogue masses vary slightly with seal and cage design.
How does the 61907 bore code work?
The last two digits of 61907 are bore code 07, giving 07 × 5 = 35 mm bore. The 55 mm outside diameter and 10 mm width follow the ISO 15 diameter series, not the bore code alone.
What does no suffix on 61907 mean?
A bare 61907 designation means open: no shields or seals, normal CN radial clearance and P0 normal tolerance unless further suffixes are ordered. The application must supply and retain the lubrication.
How does the 61900 compare with other series at the same 35 mm bore?
619 is a thin section one step above 618: 55×10 mm with a 10.0 mm radial section at 35 mm bore; a 6207 on the same bore is substantially larger and more heavily rated.
What is the SKF designation and catalogue data for 61907?
In the SKF Rolling Bearings catalogue this size is listed as 61907 — the open (unsealed) execution, 35×55×10 mm per ISO 15. Quoted values: C 10.8 kN, C0 7.8 kN, Pu 0.325 kN, limiting speed 16000 r/min, mass 80 g. Brand suffixes (2Z, 2RSH) differ from the industry-neutral spelling 61907.
