SKF bearing reviews from the people who keep electric motors running.
Buyers of SKF bearings from Electrical Equipment describe the work in their own words: motor rewinds, a water treatment plant, motor-bearing arrangements, remanufacturing lines, change-outs on client sites and VFD-driven motors.
Reviews from Germany, Ireland, Spain, Hungary, Australia and India
Electrical Equipment supplies SKF bearings to buyers worldwide, and these reviews come from motor and maintenance work in Europe, Asia and Australia. Select a point to read that buyer's review.
A water treatment plant's downed motor returned to service within the week.
We needed SKF bearings for a large industrial motor that had gone down at our water treatment plant. The supplier confirmed the drive-end and fan-end bearings, shipped same-day, and the motor was back in service within the week. Fast when it matters.

Motor Repair Workshops
Motor repair workshops rate two things: C3 clearance and bearing arrangement
Workshops judge a bearing supply by what happens on the test bench and after the motor leaves. These two reviews cover clearance on rewind jobs and the questions asked before SKF references are confirmed.
Rewind jobs · C3 clearance
C3 clearance that matches the OEM motor spec
Our electric motor repair shop sources SKF bearings for rewind jobs. Every deep groove and cylindrical roller bearing we have received matches the OEM motor spec, including the C3 clearance. Our rebuilt motors pass end-of-line noise and vibration tests without issue.

Drive end · Fan end
Bearing arrangement confirmed before the references
What stands out is their knowledge of motor-bearing arrangements. They asked about the bearing fixation on the drive end and the shield configuration on the fan end before confirming the SKF references. That level of detail is what prevents warranty returns.

Remanufacturers and Contractors
Production lines and site crews need SKF bearings that arrive as planned
A motor remanufacturer and an electrical maintenance contractor buy for different jobs, and both plan work around the delivery. One supplies a line in Budapest. The other schedules motor change-outs on client sites.
Motor remanufacturing line, Budapest
Bulk pricing on SKF ball bearings for our motor remanufacturing line was competitive. The packaging was genuine SKF, the quantities matched our order, and delivery to our plant in Budapest was on schedule. We have placed repeat orders.

Motor change-outs on client sites, Australia
We are an electrical maintenance contractor in Australia. We source SKF bearings for motor change-outs on client sites. Lead time to Sydney is around 10 days, and the parts are always correct. It makes our scheduling predictable.

Insulated Bearings
Insulated SKF bearings for a VFD-driven motor, supplied to the correct execution
Electrically insulated variants are supplied to the required SKF designation, so the execution specified for a variable frequency drive application is the one that gets fitted.
The SKF insulated bearings we ordered for a VFD-driven motor were supplied to the correct execution. The shaft voltage readings after installation were within spec, and the motor has not had a premature bearing failure. Good product, good support.
