How the YSPAG-209-111 model number is decoded
Listed in SKF 17000 chapter 2, YSPAG 209-111 is a SKF ConCentra insert bearing with concentric stepped-sleeve locking and symmetrically extended inner ring, 42.8625x85x44.2 mm overall, whose convex spherical outer ring pivots in the spherical bore of a Y-pillow, Y-flange or take-up housing. Construction is a sealed deep-groove insert, a symmetrically extended inner ring and the stepped ConCentra sleeve — uniform grip, minimal run-out, no shaft damage from screw points or an eccentric mass. reading YSP: SKF ConCentra technology locks the shaft through a stepped sleeve that contracts uniformly, chosen for high run-out accuracy and for shafts that must not be marked by screw points or an eccentric. for inch shafts the order number carries the bore as whole-inches plus sixteenths: -111 = 42.862 mm, which is why this row sits beside, not on, the metric bore size. AG is the application variant for agricultural equipment — the same bore and OD as the standard sealed size but an application-specific grease/seal build and a conservative limiting speed for field machinery. Envelope 42.8625x85x44.2 mm (1.688x3.346x1.74 in), outer ring 22 mm wide, C 33.2 kN, C0 21.6 kN, Pu 0.915 kN. The catalogue publishes a single speed ceiling, the limiting speed: 850 r/min; mass 690 g. Mass-to-load ratio for YSPAG-209-111: 20.783 g of catalogue mass per rated kN of C, and 16.098 g per millimetre of bore — useful when comparing executions of the same 42.8625x85 mm envelope on the drawing. Grease-life arithmetic is dominated by speed: at dn approx 0.54x10^5 the sealed-for-life fill is planned for the catalogue's grease-life regime, which is why the AG variant caps speed so aggressively, and high-temperature mounts shorten both even when load is light. The s1 26.7 mm dimension is printed for the locking zone — the pre-drive position of the ConCentra stepped sleeve — and it is verified at mounting, not recoverable from d/D/B alone. Selection figures for YSPAG 209-111: C0/C is 0.651, Pu 0.915 kN is 2.756 % of the 33.2 kN dynamic rating, and the 690 g catalogue mass works out to roughly 16.098 g per millimetre of the 42.8625 mm bore. Imperial procurement cross-check: 1.688 in bore, 3.346 in OD, 1.74 in overall width; the 690 g mass converts to 0.690 kg (24.3 oz) for the bill of materials. Reuse note for YSPAG-209-111: the stepped locking sleeve is a one-time clamping component in most over-torque cases; if the 42.8625 mm shaft shows a polished sleeve imprint after withdrawal, fit a new sleeve rather than re-driving the old one.
Typical equipment & failure modes
Common applications
- food and packaging conveyors
- vibrating conveyors and sieves where screws loosen
- high-speed textile and processing rollers
Known failure patterns
- sleeve re-driven after a first seating without cleaning gives false drive-up and creep under load
- stepped sleeve driven crooked scores the shaft and leaves one clamping arc unloaded
- relubricated with incompatible grease that hardens the factory fill and drags the seals
- sphered OD and spherical housing bore left dry or painted over: the static self-aligning feature freezes solid with corrosion
- pressure-greasing through the housing fitting at excessive pressure balloons the NBR seals out of their grooves
Selection pitfalls — read before you substitute
- The SB shortened-inner-ring ConCentra unit needs its matching mounting sleeve and procedure; substituting a standard YSP sleeve or a generic drift is the usual cause of crooked drive-up on the 42.8625 mm shaft.
- Inspect the shaft before sleeve mounting: a single deep keyway burr or old screw-point dimple under the 44.2 mm-wide sleeve causes a local unclamped arc that later frets.
- ConCentra solves run-out and fretting but not gross misalignment — the housing spherical seat still carries that function; do not use the sleeve grip as an excuse to skip housing alignment.
- Catalogue ratings belong to YSPAG 209-111 as the concentra two ag execution; other order numbers of the YSPAG 209-111 size are different articles (open vs sealed, plain vs rubberized flinger, stainless vs carbon steel) and may carry different ratings or speeds — always quote the full designation.
Frequently asked questions
What are the dimensions and catalogue data of YSPAG-209-111?
The catalogue envelope is 42.8625x85x44.2 mm with a spherical outside surface; mass 690 g. Ratings C 33.2/21.6 kN, Pu 0.915 kN, limiting speed 850 r/min.
What does the designation YSPAG 209-111 mean?
reading YSP: SKF ConCentra technology locks the shaft through a stepped sleeve that contracts uniformly, chosen for high run-out accuracy and for shafts that must not be marked by screw points or an eccentric. for inch shafts the order number carries the bore as whole-inches plus sixteenths: -111 = 42.862 mm, which is why this row sits beside, not on, the metric bore size. AG is the application variant for agricultural equipment — the same bore and OD as the standard sealed size but an application-specific grease/seal build and a conservative limiting speed for field machinery.
Can the locking sleeve be reused?
Usually not after a full service life or an over-torqued first mounting: the stepped sleeve takes a permanent set. SKF recommends a new sleeve whenever the bearing is replaced on the same shaft.
When should I choose YSP over YAR or YEL?
Choose ConCentra for high run-out accuracy, vibrating or reversing shafts, and shafts that must not be marked: fans, vibrating conveyors, sieves and balanced rotors. It needs the correct sleeve and drive procedure rather than simple screw tightening.
