How the 4210-ATN9 model number is decoded
4210 ATN9 is a double-row deep-groove ball bearing in the 4200-series: the last two digits encode the bore: 4210 carries code 10 = 50 mm (code × 5). Two complete ball sets share the 50×90×23 mm (1.969×3.543×0.906 in) envelope, giving C 41 kN, C0 40 kN and Pu 1.7 kN, with reversing axial capacity a single-row bearing cannot match. ATN9 is the glass-fibre PA66 cage. Limiting speed 6000 r/min, mass 580 g. The arrangement is open and requires external sealing.
Typical equipment & failure modes
Common applications
- double-supported pump impeller shafts
- gearbox layshafts with reversing axial load
- agricultural gearboxes
- belt take-up and tensioner units
Known failure patterns
- uneven load sharing between the two raceways when one ring is tilted
- polyamide cage embrittlement after sustained high-temperature service
- edge loading from shaft deflection or housing misalignment
- rolling-contact fatigue spalling once the catalogue L10 life is exceeded
Selection pitfalls — read before you substitute
- Two deep-groove raceways in 4210-ATN9 share the load but need parallel seats; tilting the 23 mm-wide assembly loads one row heavily and can spall it early.
- The wide 50×90×23 mm envelope is not interchangeable with a single-row 6210 — the housing and shaft shoulders differ, so design the seat for the double-row width from the start.
- Double-row 4210 is open and needs application sealing and lubrication; in dusty drives add external seals rather than expecting the bearing itself to stay clean.
- C 41 kN in a 23 mm width is the strength of the double-row design; use it for combined or reversing axial loads rather than pure radial duty where a slimmer single-row bearing would run cooler.
- C 41 kN in a 23 mm width is the strength of the double-row design; use it for combined or reversing axial loads rather than pure radial duty where a slimmer single-row bearing would run cooler.
- The fatigue load limit is 1.7 kN; it feeds the equivalent-mean-load check, not the basic life calculation — do not substitute one for the other.
Frequently asked questions
What are the dimensions of 4210-ATN9?
Double-row 4210 ATN9 measures 50×90×23 mm (1.969×3.543×0.906 in), about 580 g.
What does ATN9 mean on 4210 ATN9?
A = double-row deep-groove arrangement, TN9 is a glass-fibre-reinforced polyamide 66 cage; it limits continuous temperature to roughly 100–120 °C.
Why choose a double-row 42xx/43xx bearing?
Two ball rows give higher C (41 kN for 4210-ATN9), reversing axial capacity and some moment stiffness in one 23 mm-wide unit — useful on gearbox layshafts and pump shafts.
Is 4210-ATN9 interchangeable with a 62-series single-row bearing?
No: although bore matches, OD and width differ and the seat shoulders must suit the wide double-row ring; 50×90×23 mm is its own envelope.
