How the 11207-TN9 model number is decoded
The 112xx series is SKF's extended-inner-ring self-aligning ball bearing: the inner ring is wider than the outer, giving a longer shaft seat for locating-bearing duty. the last two digits encode the bore: 11207 carries code 07 = 35 mm (code × 5). Envelope 35×72×17 mm (1.378×2.835×0.669 in) with a 18.5 mm radial section height, C 19 kN, C0 6 kN and Pu 0.305 kN. The open 11207 TN9 carries no shields or seals and relies on application lubrication and external sealing. The TN9 suffix identifies the glass-fibre-reinforced polyamide 66 cage execution. The bore is cylindrical (straight), for a press-fit on a 35 mm shaft. Limiting speed 5600 r/min, catalogue mass 540 g.
Typical equipment & failure modes
Common applications
- woodworking machine cutter shafts
- locating-bearing positions on long shafts
- conveyor pulleys needing a wide inner-ring seat
- shafts with a single locating bearing against a shoulder
Known failure patterns
- contamination wear when the open arrangement is used without adequate external sealing
- lubricant starvation where no regreasing interval is maintained
- the extended inner ring acting as a thrust collar: never use it to carry axial load — locate with a shaft shoulder or locknut instead
- uneven loading of the two ball rows if the extended ring is not seated square on the shaft
- fretting corrosion on a creeping shaft or housing seat
- cage damage from running beyond the limiting speed
Selection pitfalls — read before you substitute
- Self-aligning ball bearings tolerate up to roughly 2–3° of static misalignment, but the sealed 11207-TN9 (2RS1) allows less — the lip seal binds before the spherical raceway does.
- Catalogue ratings for 11207-TN9 (C 19 kN, C0 6 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.
- The 112xx extended inner ring of 11207-TN9 gives a wider shaft seat but the same 35×72×17 mm envelope as a 12xx of the same bore — the outer ring is interchangeable, the inner is not.
- The TN9 suffix on 11207-TN9 denotes a glass-fibre-reinforced polyamide 66 cage: quiet and light at the 5600 r/min limiting speed, but it softens above roughly 120 °C — check the oil temperature in hot drives.
- Catalogue ratings for 11207-TN9 (C 19 kN, C0 6 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.
- Mount 11207-TN9 by heating the inner ring (max 120 °C) on a cylindrical bore — driving it home through the outer ring or balls brinells the raceways.
Frequently asked questions
What are the dimensions of 11207-TN9?
SKF 11207 TN9 measures 35 mm bore × 72 mm OD × 17 mm width (1.378 × 2.835 × 0.669 in), mass about 540 g. It is open, with no shields or seals.
How does the bore code in 11207 work?
The final two digits of 11207 are bore code 07, multiplied by 5 to give 35 mm.
What is the speed rating of 11207-TN9?
SKF publishes only the 5600 r/min limiting speed for this execution; sealed variants have no thermal reference speed because seal and grease life govern.
How much misalignment can 11207-TN9 tolerate?
Self-aligning ball bearings tolerate roughly 2–3° of static misalignment for open executions; sealed 2RS1 variants like 11207-TN9 allow less (about 1°) because the seal lip binds first.
