How the C2213-V model number is decoded
C 2213 V is a CARB toroidal roller bearing to ISO 15: a single row of long, symmetrical barrel-shaped rollers between guide flanges, sized 65×120×31 mm, as listed in SKF catalogue PUB BU/P1 17000 ch. 10.1. SKF builds the CARB order number from size plus execution: the bare number C 2213 is the full-complement cylindrical-bore bearing, K (or K30) makes the bore tapered for sleeve mounting, and the cage/seal letters follow — here V. CARB bearings locate neither radially nor axially: the inner ring can walk axially inside the outer ring over the catalogue-listed axial-displacement range (s), so shaft thermal growth disappears as thrust rather than preloading the 65 mm seat. The 1500 g mass over the 65×120×31 mm envelope yields about 3.14 kN dynamic per millimetre of bore — the long toroidal rollers give this family its radial capacity density. Open executions accept relubrication — route it through the outer-ring groove on sizes that have one and purge stale grease at service intervals. Grease through the annular groove features where provided; on open executions feed lubricant past the long roller set at assembly, since the 31 mm wide cavity does not fill itself.
Typical equipment & failure modes
Common applications
- vibrating screen exciters fitted with the VE240 tolerance execution
- long fan and kiln main shafts where the free end must float without thrust load
- heavy industrial gearbox layshafts used as the non-locating position
- winder and reel drums in paper and steel strip plants
Known failure patterns
- roller-end and flange smearing after lubricant starvation at the long roller contacts
- edge loading and premature spalling when the CARB position is blocked from its designed axial float
- PA66 cage (TN9) softening when the sustained temperature passes the polymer limit
- condensation pitting in machines that run intermittently in humid environments
- grease churning and overheating when a high-speed thrust position is over-packed
Selection pitfalls — read before you substitute
- At 65 mm bore the small CARB executions are unusually wide (31 mm) for their 120 mm OD — confirm the housing width before substituting a standard spherical bearing of the same bore.
- Envelope-identical spherical roller bearings (same ISO 15 d×D×B) are not drop-in equivalents — they locate the shaft axially, while C 2213 V must float; the two are designed to be used as a pair.
- Never use C 2213 V as the locating bearing: it carries no axial load by design — the arrangement needs a separate locating spherical, tapered or angular bearing facing the thrust.
- Tapered-bore K executions mount on adapter sleeves (1:12) and K30 on withdrawal sleeves (1:30) — the 65 mm bore changes the sleeve family, and the drive-up procedure differs accordingly.
- Reference and limiting speeds are different limits: the catalogue lists no thermal reference speed for this full-complement/sealed execution, the limiting value is the mechanical ceiling; observe the reference under load unless the arrangement calculation says otherwise.
- The 204/216 kN ratings and 1500 g mass are SKF catalogue values transcribed from ch. 10.1 of PUB BU/P1 17000 (PDF table page 858); mounting data — axial displacement (s) and seating details — appears in the running text because the structured record carries the boundary envelope only.
Frequently asked questions
Why is C 2213 V used opposite a spherical roller bearing?
The spherical bearing locates the shaft and takes thrust; the CARB bearing at the other end self-aligns but floats, absorbing thermal expansion without inducing axial load. The pair is standard on paper machine drying cylinders and long caster rolls.
Is the C 2213 V sealed?
No, it is an open execution relying on the housing seals; the full-complement V design has no thermal reference speed in the catalogue.
What fails first on a misapplied CARB bearing?
Blocking the designed axial float — clamping the free end or locating both shaft ends — turns thermal growth into edge loading and spalls the toroidal raceways. Cage damage and ordinary fatigue follow overload or dry running.
Which dimensions does the C 2213 V have?
A C 2213 V measures 65 mm bore × 120 mm outside diameter × 31 mm width (2.559 × 4.724 × 1.22 in). From SKF catalogue PUB BU/P1 17000: dynamic C 204 kN, static C0 216 kN, fatigue limit Pu 25.5 kN, limiting speed 2,400 r/min, no reference speed listed, mass about 1500 g.
