How the YEL-209-112-2F model number is decoded

Listed in SKF 17000 chapter 2, YEL 209-112-2F is a eccentric-locking-collar insert bearing with the inner ring extended on both sides, 44.449999999999996x85x42.8 mm overall, whose convex spherical outer ring pivots in the spherical bore of a Y-pillow, Y-flange or take-up housing. Construction pairs capped deep-groove geometry with a one-piece eccentric locking collar and a convex outer ring — quick to mount on plain commercial shafts and tolerant of initial static misalignment. reading YEL: an eccentric locking collar does the shaft clamping (popular where shaft tolerance and quick removal matter), inner ring extended symmetrically both sides. for inch shafts the order number carries the bore as whole-inches plus sixteenths: -112 = 44.45 mm, which is why this row sits beside, not on, the metric bore size. -2F decodes to contact seals with additional plain flingers, one set per side; the unit is grease-filled for life and the flinger is why the sealed width exceeds the open one-side execution. Envelope 44.449999999999996x85x42.8 mm (1.75x3.346x1.685 in), outer ring 22 mm wide, C 33.2 kN, C0 21.6 kN, Pu 0.915 kN. Mounted width B1 56.3 mm includes the eccentric collar. The catalogue publishes a single speed ceiling, the limiting speed: 4,300 r/min; mass 810 g. Rating split for the maintenance file: dynamic 33.2 kN (L10), static 21.6 kN (s0 shock check), fatigue 0.915 kN (adjusted life) — three separate uses for YEL 209-112-2F, none interchangeable with another. At the printed limiting speed of 4,300 r/min the mean diameter dm = 64.725 mm implies dn about 2.78x10^5 mm.r/min — the speed-demand figure used when comparing this insert with open deep-groove sizes of the same bore. The s1 34.9 mm dimension is printed for the locking zone — the set-screw/collar seating reference — and it is verified at mounting, not recoverable from d/D/B alone. Pitch-diameter arithmetic: dm = (44.449999999999996+85)/2 = 64.725 mm; at the 4,300 r/min limiting speed the ball set runs at dn approx 2.78x10^5, reduced from an open bearing mainly by seal lip friction and the life-long grease fill. Width accounting: B1 56.3 mm covers the bearing WITH its eccentric locking collar against 42.8 mm for the bearing itself and 22 mm outer-ring width; housing axial space is drawn to B1, seal replacement space to B. Two-side sealed collar note: after driving the eccentric collar tight, lock the collar set screw against its recess and verify the collar cannot be turned by hand; a collar that was merely pressed on without the eccentric bite spins on the shaft and frets it within hours. Collar geometry for this size: over the 22 mm outer-ring width the inner ring runs to 42.8 mm overall (56.3 mm including the eccentric collar width), giving the collar its eccentric seating face clear of the seal.

Typical equipment & failure modes

Common applications

  • ventilation equipment with frequent bearing changes
  • one-direction conveyor drives
  • tiller and cultivator rotors

Known failure patterns

  • burr or paint under the eccentric faces prevents full bite, leaving an eccentric preload that runs hot
  • eccentric collar mounted against rotation direction works loose and spins, fretting the shaft
  • relubricated with incompatible grease that hardens the factory fill and drags the seals
  • misalignment beyond the static seat capability loads the seals continuously, wearing one lip through in weeks
  • water or slurry past the seal lip emulsifies the life-long grease and rusts the flinger recess

Selection pitfalls — read before you substitute

  • Never pin or weld the eccentric collar: the controlled eccentric friction is the locking principle, and pinning turns a demountable insert into a shaft-replacement job.
  • The eccentric collar is handed to running direction; fit it wrong on the 44.449999999999996 mm shaft and self-tightening becomes self-loosening. Mark the shaft rotation before stripping any YEL2 collar unit.
  • Overall width 56.3 mm includes collar space — a housing sized for a grub-screw insert of the same OD can be too narrow axially for the YEL collar.
  • Ordering discipline for the 44.449999999999996 mm size: the chapter lists several executions side by side (YEL2 locking style x seal package x application variant); a bare-number substitution needs a fresh dimension, speed and rating check rather than a like-for-like assumption.

Frequently asked questions

What are the dimensions and catalogue data of YEL-209-112-2F?

The catalogue envelope is 44.449999999999996x85x42.8 mm with a spherical outside surface; mass 810 g. Ratings C 33.2/21.6 kN, Pu 0.915 kN, limiting speed 4,300 r/min.

What does the designation YEL 209-112-2F mean?

reading YEL: an eccentric locking collar does the shaft clamping (popular where shaft tolerance and quick removal matter), inner ring extended symmetrically both sides. for inch shafts the order number carries the bore as whole-inches plus sixteenths: -112 = 44.45 mm, which is why this row sits beside, not on, the metric bore size. -2F decodes to contact seals with additional plain flingers, one set per side; the unit is grease-filled for life and the flinger is why the sealed width exceeds the open one-side execution.

Why is the collar sometimes wider than the bearing (B1)?

The B1 dimension includes the eccentric collar's axial width, so the housing needs that extra space beside the bearing. Draw housings to B1, not B, when replacing a grub-screw unit with a collar unit.

What is the difference between YET and YEL?

YET has the inner ring extended on one side; YEL extends it on both sides. Both lock with the eccentric collar and share bore/OD geometry; the sealed -2F executions sit in the YEL listings.
