How the YSA-211-2FK-HA-2311 model number is decoded

Listed in SKF 17000 chapter 2, YSA 211-2FK HA 2311 is a tapered-bore (1:12) insert bearing supplied on its HA 2311 adapter sleeve, 49.212x100x40 mm overall, whose convex spherical outer ring pivots in the spherical bore of a Y-pillow, Y-flange or take-up housing. Construction combines capped deep-groove geometry, a tapered inner-ring bore and the supplied adapter sleeve with locknut seating — factory-grade concentricity on plain drawn shafting. YSA is the adapter-sleeve member of the Y range — tapered bore plus the HA 2311 sleeve converts a plain commercial shaft into a precisely located, demountable seat at 49.212 mm. adapter mounting means the effective bore is the sleeve bore: HA 2311 gives the 49.212 mm shaft fit with no machined shoulder required. -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 49.212x100x40 mm (1.937x3.937x1.575 in), outer ring 25 mm wide, C 43.6 kN, C0 29 kN, Pu 1.25 kN. Mounted width B1 59 mm includes the adapter sleeve. Supplied/specified with HA 2311. The catalogue publishes a single speed ceiling, the limiting speed: 3,600 r/min; mass 1300 g. Speed ceiling of 3,600 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. At the printed limiting speed of 3,600 r/min the mean diameter dm = 74.606 mm implies dn about 2.69x10^5 mm.r/min — the speed-demand figure used when comparing this insert with open deep-groove sizes of the same bore. The s1 32.5 mm dimension is printed for the locking zone — the distance before the adapter sleeve is driven up the taper — and it is verified at mounting, not recoverable from d/D/B alone. Inner-geometry cross-reference: the catalogue shoulder diameters (d1 69.06 mm, d3 75 mm) set the shaft-abutment and sleeve limits; an abutment larger than these numbers contacts the seal or the plain flinger. Envelope arithmetic: the radial section from 49.212 mm bore to 100 mm OD is 25.394 mm; dividing C 43.6 kN by that section gives 1.717 kN per section millimetre, and the 40 mm overall width is 1.575x the section. Adapter-sleeve note: tighten the sleeve locknut to the catalogue axial drive-up (s1 is printed as the starting distance before the sleeve is driven into the tapered bore); under-tightening lets the inner ring creep, over-tightening eliminates internal clearance and preloads the balls hot. Sleeve geometry on YSA-211-2FK-HA-2311: HA 2311 pulls the tapered inner ring onto the 49.212 mm plain shaft; the printed s1 32.5 mm is the pre-drive distance and 59 mm is the overall width including the sleeve hardware.

Typical equipment & failure modes

Common applications

  • conveyor positions needing easy removal without shaft damage
  • fan and blower shafts of plain commercial steel
  • general transmission arrangements on h6 plain shafts

Known failure patterns

  • sleeve under-tightened: the tapered inner ring creeps on the sleeve and polishes the taper bright
  • shaft shoulder absent or too small: the sleeve pulls through the bore instead of reacting the drive-up
  • 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

  • Plain-shaft advantage is also its trap: with no shoulders, axial location comes entirely from the sleeve/nut reaction — the abutment behind the sleeve must be square and present.
  • The order number is incomplete without the sleeve: YSA-211-2FK-HA-2311 specifies the HA 2311 adapter as part of the article; quoting only the YSA bearing risks delivery of a sleeve-less tapered bore that cannot mount.
  • Sleeve drive-up uses the printed s1 32.5 mm starting distance, not a torque value guessed from locknut size; re-measure the residual gap after tightening rather than trusting feel.
  • Ordering discipline for the 49.212 mm size: the chapter lists several executions side by side (YSA2 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 YSA-211-2FK-HA-2311?

The catalogue envelope is 49.212x100x40 mm with a spherical outside surface; mass 1300 g. Ratings C 43.6/29 kN, Pu 1.25 kN, limiting speed 3,600 r/min.

What does the designation YSA 211-2FK HA 2311 mean?

YSA is the adapter-sleeve member of the Y range — tapered bore plus the HA 2311 sleeve converts a plain commercial shaft into a precisely located, demountable seat at 49.212 mm. adapter mounting means the effective bore is the sleeve bore: HA 2311 gives the 49.212 mm shaft fit with no machined shoulder required. -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.

What shaft preparation is needed?

A plain commercial shaft in the recommended tolerance, clean and free of burrs, with a light abutment for the sleeve face. No shoulders, dimples or collar space are required — that is the main advantage of adapter mounting.

How tight should the adapter sleeve be?

Drive-up is controlled by the printed axial procedure using the s1 starting distance (32.5 mm for this size). Too loose creeps; too tight removes internal clearance and overheats the ball set. Secure the locknut when finished.
