2218-C3 is a self-aligning ball bearing, 90 mm bore × 160 mm OD × 40 mm wide (3.5433 × 6.2992 × 1.5748 in). It has C3 internal clearance.
The 2218-C3 is a self-aligning ball bearing with a 90mm bore diameter from the 22 series. It features C3 radial clearance, which is greater than normal clearance, allowing for thermal expansion and shaft deflection compensation. The double-row design with a sphered outer ring raceway enables the bearing to accommodate misalignment between shaft and housing.
