23038-E1A-XL-M
Holding a bearing marked SKF 23038C or NSK 23038CAME4 or NTN 23038B? Ours is 23038-E1A-XL-M — the same seat size, the same type and the same sealing and clearance design.
What this bearing is
23038-E1A-XL-M is a spherical roller bearing with a 190 × 290 × 75 mm seat, execution: open · clearance CN. The manufacturer's cross-reference catalogue confirms full interchangeability for 11 designations, including SKF 23038C, SKF 23038C/W33, SKF 23038CC/W33.

Before you replace it
This is a dimensional and design equivalent: the same seat size, the same bearing type and the same sealing and clearance design. It is not the same product — load ratings, tolerance class and grease may differ between manufacturers. For duty close to the limits or a critical application, check the datasheet of the specific design.
The same seat in another execution
These items share the mounting size and have cross-reference tables of their own. They differ in sealing, clearance or cage — exactly what decides how the bearing behaves in the seat.

Where these equivalents come from
The base number of a standard bearing is an ISO standard — 6205 is 6205 at every manufacturer. Only the suffixes describing the design differ, and those are what we translate: shields, contact seals, cage and radial clearance. Designations that mean different things at different makers are deliberately omitted.
