How the YET-210 model number is decoded

Listed in SKF 17000 chapter 2, YET 210 is a eccentric-locking-collar insert bearing with a one-side-extended inner ring, 50x90x30.2 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 YET: an eccentric locking collar does the shaft clamping (popular where shaft tolerance and quick removal matter), inner ring extended on one side. the size code 210 carries the usual bore arithmetic — 50 mm (code 10 x 5) — while the leading 2 marks the ISO 15 diameter series 2 sphered-OD envelope. the bare designation means no factory seal package: unlike the -2F executions this bearing relies on enclosure by the Y-housing and its own re-greasing path, which is why it is normally specified inside well-sealed plummer and flange units. Envelope 50x90x30.2 mm (1.969x3.543x1.189 in), outer ring 22 mm wide, C 35.1 kN, C0 23.2 kN, Pu 0.98 kN. Mounted width B1 43.7 mm includes the eccentric collar. The catalogue publishes a single speed ceiling, the limiting speed: 4,000 r/min; mass 740 g. Speed ceiling of 4,000 r/min is the catalogue mechanical limit for THIS execution; seal lip and flinger drag, not steel fatigue, are normally what cap it, so real fan duty is planned well below it. Inner-geometry cross-reference: the catalogue shoulder diameters (d1 62.5 mm, d2 67.2 mm) set the shaft-abutment and sleeve limits; an abutment larger than these numbers contacts the seal or the inner flinger. Width accounting: B1 43.7 mm covers the bearing WITH its eccentric locking collar against 30.2 mm for the bearing itself and 22 mm outer-ring width; housing axial space is drawn to B1, seal replacement space to B. The s1 32.7 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. Grease-life arithmetic is dominated by speed: at dn approx 2.80x10^5 the sealed-for-life fill is planned for the catalogue's grease-life regime, which is why the limiting speed and the relubrication interval move together, and high-temperature mounts shorten both even when load is light. One-side collar note: the eccentric collar mounts on the extended side only and must turn in the shaft rotation direction to self-tighten; on reversing drives this design can loosen by design intent — choose grub-screw or ConCentra locking for true bidirectional shafts. Collar geometry for this size: over the 22 mm outer-ring width the inner ring runs to 30.2 mm overall (43.7 mm including the eccentric collar width), giving the collar its eccentric seating face clear of the seal.

Typical equipment & failure modes

Selection pitfalls — read before you substitute

• Overall width 43.7 mm includes collar space — a housing sized for a grub-screw insert of the same OD can be too narrow axially for the YET collar.
• The eccentric collar is handed to running direction; fit it wrong on the 50 mm shaft and self-tightening becomes self-loosening. Mark the shaft rotation before stripping any YEL2 collar unit.
• 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 35.1/23.2 kN figures belong specifically to YET 210; HV stainless, AG agricultural and VE495 zinc-plated variants of the same envelope publish derated values, so write the complete order number including suffixes on the purchase and maintenance records.
