High-speed super-precision single
row cylindrical roller bearings
Machine tools and other precision applications require superior bearing performance.
In these applications, a high degree of system rigidity is one of the main performance
challenges, as the magnitude of elastic
deform­ation under load determines the
product­ivity and accuracy of the equipment.
Another performance challenge is keeping
the amount of friction and heat generated
by the bearing to a minimum during highspeed operation.
To meet these demanding performance
criteria, N 10 series cylindrical roller bearings have an optimized internal geometry
and a redesigned cage, enabling them to
­accommodate a speed increase of up to 30%.
The bearings are characterized by:
• high-speed capability
• high load carrying capacity
• high stiffness
• low friction
• low cross sectional height
A
The non-locating bearing position is typically at the non-tool end of a spindle. If the
bearing at this position has a loose fit, it can
have a negative influence on the total rigidity of the bearing arrangement. Therefore,
for a high degree of stiffness at the non-tool
end of a spindle, N 10 series cylindrical roller bearings with a tapered bore should be
used. They accommodate axial displacement
within the bearing and enable an interference fit for both the inner and outer rings.
Bearings in the N 10 series provide high
reliability and superior accuracy for applications such as high-speed milling machines,
machining centres and lathes.
3
The assortment
SKF bearings in the N 10 series can accommodate shaft diameters ranging from 40 to
80 mm. The bearings are available with a
tapered bore only and are manufactured
to two tolerance classes. To accommodate
increased operational speeds, the bearings
are available in a hybrid variant.
The bearing overall dimensions are in
accordance with ISO Dimension Series 10
and have a low cross sectional height. They
are able to accommodate relatively large
diameter shafts to provide the necessary
system rigidity within a relatively small
bearing envelope. When compared to a set
of angular contact ball bearings with the same
load carrying capacity and the same degree
of rigidity, an N 10 series bearing requires
a much smaller radial space. This enables
compact spindle bearing arrangements.
Hybrid variant
Bearings in the N 10 series are available
with ceramic (bearing grade silicon nitride)
rollers. As ceramic rollers are considerably
lighter and harder than steel rollers, hybrid
bearings can provide a higher degree of rigidity and run considerably faster than comparably sized all-steel bearings. The lower
weight of the ceramic rollers reduces the
centrifugal forces within the bearing and
generates less heat. Lower centrifugal forces
are particularly important in machine tool
applications where there are frequent rapid
starts and stops. Less heat generated by the
bearing means less energy consumption
and longer bearing and grease service life.
Hybrid bearings in the N 10 series are
identified by the designation suffix HC5.
The bearings are available in an all-steel and
hybrid variant.

High-speed design
Super-precision single row cylindrical roller
bearings in the N 10 series are designed for
bearing arrangements requiring increased
speed capability, high load carrying capacity
and a high degree of radial stiffness.
The features of high-speed N 10 series
bearings include, among others, an optimized internal geometry, a flangesless outer
ring and a high-speed cage.
The bearings are separable, making it
possible to separate the inner ring with roller and cage assembly from the outer ring to
facilitate mounting and dismounting.
Optimized, high-speed cage
N 10 series bearings are equipped with an
outer ring centred, window-type cage made
of carbon fibre reinforced polyetherether­
ketone (PEEK). The symmetrical, self-­
centring design enables the cage to be better guided on the raceway of the outer ring,
compared to previous designs. The cage also
offers excellent guidance for the rollers and
provides access for the lubricant (typically
oil-air) to reach the contact areas between
the cage and the inner ring flanges. The exceptional properties of PEEK provide a
superior combination of strength and flexi­
bility at high operational speeds. PEEK can
also accommodate high operating temperatures while providing high wear resistance.
Compared to previous high-speed design
bearings, the new, optimized cage can accommodate a speed increase of up to 30% in
grease lubricated applications and up to 15%
in oil-air lubricated applications.

Applications
In applications requiring a high degree of
system rigidity, cylindrical roller bearings are
typically an excellent choice.
The SKF assortment of super-­precision
single row cylindrical roller bearings in the
N 10 series is very well suited to meet this
requirement as well as other demands
placed on precision bearing arrangements.
High-speed milling machines and
­machining centres require high positioning
accuracy and low levels of heat generation.
In addition, these applications are often
subjected to heavy radial loads at the nontool end of the spindle. The ability of bearApplications
• Machine tools

heavy loads at high speeds, and still provide
a high degree of radial stiffness, makes
them an excellent solution for these and
similar applications.
Requirements
• High-speed capability
• High load carrying capacity
• High degree of system rigidity
• High positioning accuracy
• Long service life
• Low friction
• Increased machine uptime

Adjusting for clearance or preload
When adjusting a cylindrical roller bearing
with a tapered bore for clearance or preload,
the result is determined by how far the
bearing is driven up on the tapered shaft
seat. The further the bearing is driven up
the seat, the more the clearance is reduced,
until eventually, there is preload in the bearing. To quickly and accurately determine the
amount of clearance or preload in the
mounted bearing, SKF recommends using a
GB 30 series internal clearance gauge
(† fig. 1).
If SKF gauges are not available, the axial
displacement, i.e. the additional distance
through which the bearing inner ring must
be pushed up on its tapered seat, can be
calculated. For additional information, refer
to the SKF Interactive Engineering Catalogue
available online at www.skf.com.

Fig. 1
Preparing for oil injection
B
For bearings in the N 10 series, particularly
the larger sizes, SKF recommends using the
SKF oil injection method to facilitate mounting and dismounting. With this method, oil
­under high pressure is injected between the
bearing inner ring bore and the shaft seat to
form an oil film that separates the mating
surfaces and appreciably reduces the friction between them. The distribution of oil
between the mating surfaces is accomplished by a circumferential oil distribution
groove in the shaft that communicates with
a supply duct in the shaft († fig. 1).
It is necessary to make provision for the
SKF oil injection method. This is usually
done at the design stage of the bearing
­arrangement. For additional information
about the SKF oil injection method and
­recommended dimensions for distribution
grooves and oil supply ducts, refer to the
SKF Interactive Engineering Catalogue
­available online at www.skf.com.

Application examples
High-speed super-precision single row
­cylindrical roller bearings are common in,
but not limited to, machine tool applications.
Depending on the type of machine tool and
its intended purpose, spindles may require
different bearing arrangements.
For high-speed machining centres and
lathes, for example, there is typically a compromise between rigidity and load carrying
capacity. In these applications, the spindle is
often driven directly by a motor. The spindle
is then referred to as a motorized spindle or
electro-spindle. As there are only very light
radial loads at the non-tool end (compared
with a belt-driven spindle), but a high degree of rigidity is required, a super-precision
single row cylindrical roller bearing is frequently used at that end. A cylindrical roller
bearing at the non-tool end accommodates
thermal elongation of the shaft within the
bearing. Angular contact ball bearings at the
tool end locate the shaft axially.
High-speed milling machine
For high-speed milling machines, where a high degree of system rigidity is required, a super-precision single row cylindrical roller bearing at the non-tool end,
e.g. N 1013 KPHA/SP, is suitable. A matched set of four super-precision hybrid angular contact ball bearings, e.g. 7014 ACD/HCP4AQBCB, incorporating a set of
­precision-matched spacer rings, can be used at the tool end, providing an overall robust bearing arrangement.
10
B
High-speed milling machine
In a high-speed milling machine where there are relatively heavy combined loads at the tool end, a high degree of rigidity and high load carrying capacity are
important operational requirements. It is common to have a super-precision hybrid single row cylindrical roller bearing, e.g. N 1014 KPHA/HC5SP, in combination with a matched set of back-to-back super-precision hybrid angular contact ball bearings, e.g. 7014 ACD/HCP4ADBB, at the tool end. A super-precision
hybrid single row cylindrical roller bearing, e.g. N 1013 KPHA/HC5SP, is suitable for the non-tool end.
Electro-spindle for a high-speed machining centre
For high-speed machining centres where speeds can exceed 1 200 000 mm/min, a super-precision cylindrical roller bearing, e.g. N 1009 KPHA/SP, is used at
the non-tool end. A matched set of super-precision angular contact ball bearings mounted back-to-back, e.g. 7012 CD/P4ADBB, are used at the tool end.

Lubrication
Heat resulting from friction is a constant
threat to production equipment. One way to
reduce heat and the wear associated with
friction, particularly in bearings, is to be sure
that the correct quantity of the appropriate
lubricant reaches all necessary parts.
Initial grease fill
In high-speed applications, less than 30% of
the free space in the bearings should be
filled with grease. The initial grease fill depends on the bearing size as well as the
speed factor, which is
A = n dm
Grease lubrication
In most applications with bearings in the
N 10 series, grease with a mineral base oil
and lithium thickener is suitable. These
greases, which adhere well to the bearing
surfaces, can accommodate operating temperatures ranging from –30 to +100 °C.
where
A = speed factor [mm/min]
n = rotational speed [r/min]
dm= bearing mean diameter
= 0,5 (d + D) [mm]
The initial grease fill can be estimated by
Running-in of grease
lubricated bearings
A grease lubricated super-precision bearing
will initially run with a relatively high frictional moment. If the bearing is run at high
speed without a running-in period, the temperature rise can be considerable. The time
required to stabilize the operating temperature depends on a number of factors – the
type of grease, the initial grease fill, how the
grease is applied to the bearings and the
running-in procedure.
For additional information about runningin of grease lubricated bearings, refer to the
SKF Interactive Engineering Catalogue

Oil lubrication
Oil-air lubrication method
Where speeds are constantly very high
(generally, speed factor A > 1 800 000
mm/min), bearings in the N 10 series
should be oil lubricated, as the service life of
grease is too short under these conditions
and oil provides the added benefit of cooling.
In some precision applications, the very high
operational speeds and requisite low operating temperatures require an oil-air lubrication system. Oil is supplied to the feed
lines at given intervals by a metering unit.
The oil coats the inside surface of the feed
lines and “creeps” toward the nozzles
(† fig. 1), where it is delivered to the bearings. The oil nozzles should be positioned
correctly († table 2) to make sure that the
oil is introduced into the contact area between the rollers and raceways and to avoid
interference with the cage.
Guidelines for the oil quantity to be supplied to each bearing for very high speed
operation can be obtained from

qdB
Q = –––––
100
where
Q= oil flow rate [mm3/h]
d = bearing bore diameter [mm]
B= bearing width [mm]
q = a factor of 1 to 2
Different bearing types and designs show
varying sensitivity to oil quantity change.
Roller bearings, which are very sensitive to
lubricant quantity, can experience a significant increase in operating temperature.
Therefore, SKF recommends testing and
verifying the calculated oil flow rate prior to
operation in a production environment.
High quality lubricating oils with a viscosity of 40 to 100 mm2/s at 40 °C are typically
used, as are oils with EP additives, which are
preferable for roller bearings. A filter that
prevents particles > 5 μm from reaching the
bearings should also be incorporated.

stiffness cannot be quoted. Exact values of
radial stiffness, for bearings in the N 10 series, for a given load can be calculated using
advanced computer methods, but guideline
values are listed in table 6. These values apply to mounted bearings with zero clearance
under static conditions and subjected to
moderate loads.
Equivalent loads
The equivalent dynamic bearing load can be
calculated using
P = Fr
The equivalent static bearing load can be
calculated using
• Housing and shaft seats and abutments
meet the accuracy requirements for precision applications.
The speed ratings must be reduced when:
• operational clearance is smaller than
2 μm
• preload is set
• the housing and shaft seats and abutments do not meet accuracy
requirements
Rollers of hybrid bearings are made of bearing grade silicon nitride Si3N4.
The bearings undergo a special heat
treatment to achieve a good balance between hardness and dimensional stability.
The hardness of the rings and rolling elem­
ents is optimized for wear-resistance and
the bearing rings are heat stabilized to accommodate temperatures up to 150 °C.

Setting the highest standard for
precision bearings
SKF has developed and is continuing to
develop a new, improved generation of superprecision bearings. The new assortment
delivers improved accuracy and extended
bearing service life when compared to
previous designs.
Super-precision
angular contact ball
bearings
Bearings in the 718 (SEA)
series
Bearings in the 718 (SEA) series provide
optimum performance in applications where
a low cross section and high degree of rigidity, speed and superior accuracy are critical
design parameters. They are particularly
suitable for machine tool applications, multi­
spindle drilling heads, robotic arms, measuring devices, racing car wheels and other
precision applications. The standard assortment accommodates shaft diameters ranging from 10 to 160 mm.
Bearings in the 719 .. D (SEB)
and 70 .. D (EX) series
For applications where a high load carrying
capacity is an additional operational requirement, SKF offers high-capacity bearings in
the 719 .. D (SEB) and 70 .. D (EX) series.
The ability of the new design super-precision bearings in these two series to accommodate heavy loads in applications where
radial space is often limited, makes them an
excellent choice for demanding applications.
Open bearings in the 719 .. D (SEB) series
accommodate shaft diameters ranging from
10 to 360 mm; sealed bearings from 10 to
150 mm.
Open bearings in the 70 .. D (EX) series
accommodate shaft diameters ranging from
6 to 240 mm; sealed bearings from 10 to
150 mm.
Bearings in the S719 .. B
(HB .. /S) and S70 .. B
(HX .. /S) series
High-speed sealed bearings in the S719 .. B
(HB .. /S) and S70 .. B (HX .. /S) series can
virtually eliminate the problem of premature
bearing failures resulting from contamin­
ation. The standard assortment accommodates shaft diameters ranging from 30 to
120 mm. These relubrication-free bearings
are particularly suitable for metal cutting
and woodworking machines. The bearings
are also available in an open variant.
Bearings in the 719 .. E (VEB)
and 70 .. E (VEX) series
Bearings in the 72 .. D (E 200)
series
High-capacity bearings in the 72 .. D (E 200)
series offer solutions to many bearing
arrangement challenges. Their ability, among
others, to provide a high degree of rigidity and
accommodate heavy loads at relatively high
speeds, is beneficial for a variety of applications. The extended range of bearings in this
series now accommodates shaft diameters
ranging from 7 to 140 mm. And, there is
also a relubrication-free, sealed variant,
available on request.
20
Compared to high-speed B design bearings,
high-speed E design bearings have a higher
speed capability and can accommodate
heavier loads. This desirable combination
makes these bearings an excellent choice
for demanding applications.
Open bearings in the 719 .. E (VEB) series
accommodate shaft diameters ranging from
8 to 120 mm; sealed bearings from 20 to
120 mm.
Open bearings in the 70 .. E (VEX) series
accommodate shaft diameters ranging from
6 to 120 mm; sealed bearings from 10 to
120 mm.
Bearings made from
NitroMax steel
In extremely demanding applications such
as high-speed machining centres and milling machines, bearings are frequently subjected to difficult operating conditions such
as very high speeds, thin-film lubrication
conditions, and contaminated and corrosive
environments. To enable longer bearing
service life and reduce the costs associated
with downtime, SKF has developed a superior high-nitrogen steel.
The SKF assortment of super-precision
angular contact ball bearings made from
NitroMax steel have ceramic (bearing grade
silicon nitride) rolling elements as standard.
Super-precision
cylindrical roller
bearings
SKF produces super-precision single row
and double row cylindrical roller bearings.
The characteristic features of these bearings
are a low cross sectional height, high load
carrying capacity, high rigidity and highspeed capability. They 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.
Single row cylindrical roller bearings are
produced in the N 10 series as basic design
bearings and as high-speed design bearings. High-speed single row cylindrical roller
bearings in the N 10 series are available
with a tapered bore only and for shaft diameters ranging from 40 to 80 mm. Compared
to previous high-speed design, they can
accommodate a speed increase of up to 30%
in grease lubricated applications and up to
15% in oil-air lubricated applications.
Double row cylindrical roller bearings are
produced as standard in the NN design and
NNU design.
Super-precision
double direction
angular contact thrust
ball bearings
Super-precision
angular contact thrust
ball bearings for screw
drives
Double direction angular contact bearings,
as their name implies, were developed by
SKF to axially locate machine tool spindles
in both directions.
The new optimized design of super-precision bearings in the BTW series consists
of a set of two single row angular contact
thrust ball bearings, arranged back-to-back.
This configuration enables the bearings to
accommodate axial loads in both directions
while providing a high degree of system
rigidity. These bearings can accommodate
higher speeds compared to bearings in the
former 2344(00) series. The bearings are
available for shaft diameters ranging from
35 to 200 mm.
The redesigned high-speed BTM series
accommodate higher speeds, anywhere
from 6% to 12% depending on the size;
minimize heat generation, even at higher
speeds; provide high load carrying capacity
and maintain a high degree of system rigidity. The range of BTM bearings series has
been expanded to accommodate shaft
diameters from 60 to 180 mm.
Single direction angular contact thrust ball
bearings in the BSA and BSD (BS) series are
available for shaft diameters ranging from
12 to 75 mm. These bearings are characterized by superior axial stiffness and high
axial load carrying capacity.
Double direction angular contact thrust
ball bearings in the BEAS series have been
developed for machine tool applications
where space is tight and easy mounting is
required. The bearings are available for shaft
diameters ranging from 8 to 30 mm. Bearings in the BEAM series, which can accommodate shaft diameters ranging from 12 to
60 mm, can be bolt-mounted to an associated component.
Cartridge units are another solution for
simple and quick mounting. Units in the
FBSA (BSDU and BSQU) series incorporate
SKF single direction angular contact thrust
ball bearings and can accommodate shaft
diameters ranging from 20 to 60 mm.
Super-precision axial­
radial cylindrical roller
bearings
SKF axial-radial cylindrical roller bearings
are suitable for arrangements that have
simultaneously acting (radial and axial)
loads as well as moment loads.
Their internal design, together with close
tolerance manufacturing processes, enable
these bearings to attain better than P4 running accuracy.
Axial-radial cylindrical roller bearings are
commonly used to support rotating tables,
indexing tables and milling heads.
