What is the equivalent of a 4T-30205-C3 bearing?

The 4T-30205-C3 is a 25×52×16.25mm ball bearing with verified equivalents across multiple brands: NSK HR30205J C3, NTN 4T-30205 C3, SKF 30205 J2/Q C3, Timken 30205 C3. All equivalents share the same bore, outer diameter, width, and load ratings.

What are the dimensions of a 4T-30205-C3 bearing?

The 4T-30205-C3 bearing has a bore diameter of 25mm, outer diameter of 52mm, and width of 16.25mm. It has a dynamic load rating of 17.8 kN, static load rating of 10.1 kN, and weighs 100g. Maximum speed with grease lubrication is 9,000 rpm.

Can I replace a FAG 4T-30205-C3 with a NSK equivalent?

Yes. FAG and NSK bearings with the same ISO designation are dimensionally interchangeable. The 4T-30205-C3 (25×52×16.25mm) can be replaced with the equivalent NSK part number as long as the seal type (open) and clearance class (C3) match. Always verify load ratings and speed limits for your specific application.

Technical Details & Applications

Specification variations and common equipment types.

Internal Clearance

Greater Than Normal (C3)

Increased radial internal clearance. Required when bearings operate at elevated temperatures or with tight shaft fits.

Temperature70-150°C operating temperature

Seal Type

Open (No Seal)

No seals or shields. Allows external lubrication and cooling. Lowest friction, highest speed capability.

Avoid forDirty, dusty, or wet environments. Applications without planned lubrication maintenance.
