SKF E2 Energy Efficient Bearings are deep-groove, shielded, ultra-low friction bearings that feature an optimised design, balanced between internal geometry, grease and cage type.

With 30 to 50% lower friction when compared with standard SKF bearings, the energy savings achievable when using SKF Energy Efficient Bearings are substantial, and the bearing life is extended significantly - in most cases more than double.

SKF E2 Energy Efficient Bearings offer ultra-low friction and typically generate less heat and can operate at higher speeds than ISO or SKF Explorer Bearings.

Dimensionally fully-compatible with standard bearings

Typical applications for SKF Energy Efficient Bearings include:

Electric motors up to 37kW (50HP)
Light to medium-loaded machines with shaft diameters up to 60mm
Excellent drop-in replacement for in-service electric motors

This deep groove ball bearing is engineered to enable smooth rotational movement while handling radial and axial loads in machinery. Its sturdy design is vital in various automation, electronics, and mechanical applications. The double shielded configuration enhances durability while maintaining functionality in challenging environments.
