How the 2210-EKTN9 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 33.8 kN, C0 11.2 kN and Pu 0.57 kN. The open 2210 EKTN9 carries no shields or seals and relies on application lubrication and external sealing. The EKTN9 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. Reference (thermal) speed 14000 r/min, limiting speed 9500 r/min, catalogue mass 600 g.
Typical equipment & failure modes
Common applications
- material-handling equipment
- industrial electric motors
- conveyor drum and pulley shafts
- agricultural gearboxes
Known failure patterns
- contamination wear when the open arrangement is used without adequate external sealing
- lubricant starvation where no regreasing interval is maintained
- adapter-sleeve fretting when the sleeve is not locked against the shaft shoulder
- incorrect sleeve tightening that leaves the tapered bore loose or over-expanded, changing internal clearance
- raceway smearing under marginal lubrication at start-up
- electrical pitting in VFD-driven motors without shaft grounding
Selection pitfalls — read before you substitute
- Catalogue ratings for 2210-EKTN9 (C 33.8 kN, C0 11.2 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.

- Tighten the adapter sleeve to the SKF-recommended starting clearance, not to feel — an over-tightened sleeve expands the inner ring and removes all internal clearance.
- The EKTN9 suffix on 2210-EKTN9 denotes a glass-fibre-reinforced polyamide 66 cage: quiet and light at the 9500 r/min limiting speed, but it softens above roughly 120 °C — check the oil temperature in hot drives.

- Mount 2210-EKTN9 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 2210-EKTN9?
SKF 2210 EKTN9 measures 50 mm bore × 90 mm OD × 23 mm width (1.969 × 3.543 × 0.906 in), mass about 600 g. It is open, with no shields or seals.
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.
Can 2210-EKTN9 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.
Which fits should I use for 2210-EKTN9?
With a rotating inner ring use roughly k5 on the shaft and H7 in the 90 mm housing; reverse the interference if the outer ring rotates.
