How the 2210-E-2RS1KTN9 model number is decoded

The 22xx series is the wide light-section self-aligning ball bearing (ISO dimension series 22). the last two digits encode the bore: 2210 carries code 10 = 50 mm (code × 5). Envelope 50×90×23 mm (1.969×3.543×0.906 in) with a 20.0 mm radial section height, C 22.9 kN, C0 8.15 kN and Pu 0.42 kN. SKF spells the sealed execution 2210 E-2RS1KTN9 (suffix 2RS1): two contact elastomer lips over a lifetime grease fill; the lips add drag, and no thermal reference speed is published. The E-2RS1KTN9 suffix identifies the glass-fibre-reinforced polyamide 66 cage execution. The K suffix marks a 1:12 tapered bore for direct mounting on a tapered shaft or with an adapter sleeve. Limiting speed 4800 r/min, catalogue mass 570 g.

Typical equipment & failure modes

Common applications

  • agricultural gearboxes
  • textile machinery drives
  • industrial fans and blowers
  • woodworking machinery

Known failure patterns

  • fine dust or moisture passing a worn seal lip in dirty or wet duty
  • grease loss when the sealed-for-life cavity is overheated with no relubrication path
  • incorrect sleeve tightening that leaves the tapered bore loose or over-expanded, changing internal clearance
  • adapter-sleeve fretting when the sleeve is not locked against the shaft shoulder
  • rolling-contact fatigue spalling once the catalogue L10 life is exceeded
  • brinelling from static overload or hammer blows during mounting

Selection pitfalls — read before you substitute

  • At 50 mm bore, C3 clearance is the safe choice when interference fits plus temperature rise consume the CN clearance; a hot tight bearing with no residual clearance fails fast.
  • At 50 mm bore, C3 clearance is the safe choice when interference fits plus temperature rise consume the CN clearance; a hot tight bearing with no residual clearance fails fast.
  • Sealed self-aligning bearings tolerate less misalignment than open ones: keep static misalignment under roughly 1° on 2210-E-2RS1KTN9 to avoid seal-lip binding.
  • The K suffix means a 1:12 tapered bore: 2210-E-2RS1KTN9 is not a drop-in for the straight-bore version — it needs a tapered shaft or an H-series adapter sleeve.
  • The E-2RS1KTN9 suffix on 2210-E-2RS1KTN9 denotes a glass-fibre-reinforced polyamide 66 cage: quiet and light at the 4800 r/min limiting speed, but it softens above roughly 120 °C — check the oil temperature in hot drives.
  • The spherical outer raceway lets 2210-E-2RS1KTN9 tolerate shaft deflection, but it does not increase thrust capacity — combined loads still need an angular-contact or deep-groove bearing.

Frequently asked questions

What are the dimensions of 2210-E-2RS1KTN9?

SKF 2210 E-2RS1KTN9 measures 50 mm bore × 90 mm OD × 23 mm width (1.969 × 3.543 × 0.906 in), mass about 570 g. It has two contact rubber seals (2RS1) and a lifetime grease fill.

How does the bore code in 2210 work?

The final two digits of 2210 are bore code 10, multiplied by 5 to give 50 mm.

How much misalignment can 2210-E-2RS1KTN9 tolerate?

Self-aligning ball bearings tolerate roughly 2–3° of static misalignment for open executions; sealed 2RS1 variants like 2210-E-2RS1KTN9 allow less (about 1°) because the seal lip binds first.

Can 2210-E-2RS1KTN9 take axial load?

A self-aligning ball bearing can carry some axial load in addition to radial load, but its axial capacity is lower than an angular-contact bearing of the same envelope. Use it where misalignment, not thrust, is the main requirement.
