Suffix Chart
Decode cage, bore, clearance, and lubrication suffixes.
Cage references such as CA, CC, MB, and MA can affect load behavior, speed review, vibration suitability, and quote accuracy. Send the full bearing number, suffix, application, and quantity so TFL Bearing can review the right supply option.
| Cage reference | Typical buyer check | Enquiry implication |
|---|---|---|
| CA | Often requested with brass cage style references. | Send full suffix, load, speed, and application before quotation. |
| CC | Often appears in standard SRB model suffix comparisons. | Confirm clearance and application duty with the bearing model. |
| MB | Machined-brass cage references vary by manufacturer and internal design. | Review speed, heat, lubrication, load, and the complete suffix before quotation. |
| MA | May appear in older model references or brand-specific markings. | Photos of markings help avoid suffix misunderstanding. |
| Brass cage | Common in heavy-load or vibration-aware Enquiry discussions. | Do not choose by cage alone; review full model and application. |
