How the 1305-ETN9 model number is decoded

The 13xx series is the medium/normal-section self-aligning ball bearing (ISO dimension series 03). the last two digits encode the bore: 1305 carries code 05 = 25 mm (code × 5). Envelope 25×62×17 mm (0.984×2.441×0.669 in) with a 18.5 mm radial section height, C 19 kN, C0 5.4 kN and Pu 0.28 kN. The open 1305 ETN9 carries no shields or seals and relies on application lubrication and external sealing. The ETN9 suffix identifies the glass-fibre-reinforced polyamide 66 cage execution. The bore is cylindrical (straight), for a press-fit on a 25 mm shaft. Reference (thermal) speed 22000 r/min, limiting speed 15000 r/min, catalogue mass 260 g.

Typical equipment & failure modes

Common applications

  • small electric motors
  • conveyor idler rollers
  • agricultural machinery shafts
  • textile spindles and looms

Known failure patterns

  • lubricant starvation where no regreasing interval is maintained
  • contamination wear when the open arrangement is used without adequate external sealing
  • false brinelling from vibration while the shaft stands idle
  • fretting corrosion on a creeping shaft or housing seat

Selection pitfalls — read before you substitute

  • Fillet radii must clear the 1305-ETN9 chamfer so the 17 mm-wide ring seats square; an oversized shaft radius creates point contact on the ring face.
  • Mount 1305-ETN9 by heating the inner ring (max 120 °C) on a cylindrical bore — driving it home through the outer ring or balls brinells the raceways.
  • The ETN9 suffix on 1305-ETN9 denotes a glass-fibre-reinforced polyamide 66 cage: quiet and light at the 15000 r/min limiting speed, but it softens above roughly 120 °C — check the oil temperature in hot drives.
  • The spherical outer raceway lets 1305-ETN9 tolerate shaft deflection, but it does not increase thrust capacity — combined loads still need an angular-contact or deep-groove bearing.
  • Fillet radii must clear the 1305-ETN9 chamfer so the 17 mm-wide ring seats square; an oversized shaft radius creates point contact on the ring face.
  • Self-aligning ball bearings tolerate up to roughly 2–3° of static misalignment, but the sealed 1305-ETN9 (2RS1) allows less — the lip seal binds before the spherical raceway does.

Frequently asked questions

What are the dimensions of 1305-ETN9?

SKF 1305 ETN9 measures 25 mm bore × 62 mm OD × 17 mm width (0.984 × 2.441 × 0.669 in), mass about 260 g. It is open, with no shields or seals.

How does the bore code in 1305 work?

The final two digits of 1305 are bore code 05, multiplied by 5 to give 25 mm.

What load can 1305-ETN9 take?

Catalogue values for 1305 ETN9: dynamic C 19 kN, static C0 5.4 kN, fatigue limit Pu 0.28 kN. Use C in life calculation and C0 for static checks at 25 mm bore.

What is the speed rating of 1305-ETN9?

SKF lists a 22000 r/min thermal reference speed and a 15000 r/min mechanical limiting speed for 1305 ETN9; real limits also depend on lubrication and fits.
