How the 4215-ATN9 model number is decoded

4215 ATN9 is a double-row deep-groove ball bearing in the 4200-series: the last two digits encode the bore: 4215 carries code 15 = 75 mm (code × 5). Two complete ball sets share the 75×130×31 mm (2.953×5.118×1.22 in) envelope, giving C 72.8 kN, C0 80 kN and Pu 3.35 kN, with reversing axial capacity a single-row bearing cannot match. ATN9 is the glass-fibre PA66 cage. Limiting speed 4000 r/min, mass 1600 g. The arrangement is open and requires external sealing.

Typical equipment & failure modes

Common applications

  • lifting and hoisting gear
  • fans with axial thrust reversals
  • industrial wheel arrangements
  • double-supported pump impeller shafts

Known failure patterns

  • uneven load sharing between the two raceways when one ring is tilted
  • polyamide cage embrittlement after sustained high-temperature service
  • false brinelling from vibration while the shaft stands idle
  • fretting corrosion on a creeping shaft or housing seat

Selection pitfalls — read before you substitute

  • The wide 75×130×31 mm envelope is not interchangeable with a single-row 6215 — the housing and shaft shoulders differ, so design the seat for the double-row width from the start.
  • Double-row 4215 is open and needs application sealing and lubrication; in dusty drives add external seals rather than expecting the bearing itself to stay clean.
  • C 72.8 kN in a 31 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.
  • Fit both rings square on the shoulders: the narrow internal land between the two raceways of 4215-ATN9 is sensitive to cocking during pressing.
  • Double-row 4215 is open and needs application sealing and lubrication; in dusty drives add external seals rather than expecting the bearing itself to stay clean.
  • Catalogue ratings for 4215-ATN9 (C 72.8 kN, C0 80 kN) are SKF figures from PUB BU/P1 17000; geometry revisions can change ratings without changing the designation, so keep the catalogue edition with the specification.

Frequently asked questions

What are the dimensions of 4215-ATN9?

Double-row 4215 ATN9 measures 75×130×31 mm (2.953×5.118×1.22 in), about 1600 g.

What does ATN9 mean on 4215 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.

Is 4215-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; 75×130×31 mm is its own envelope.

Does 4215-ATN9 run as fast as a single-row bearing?

Somewhat slower: SKF rates it to 4000 r/min; the two cages and wider grease volume generate more drag than a single-row 6215.
