How the RNA4919-XL model number is decoded
envelope 110×130×35 mm: 110 mm seat is the hardened and ground shaft journal itself — there is no inner ring, with a thin 10.0 mm radial section packed with small-diameter needle rollers C is 131 kN and C0 260 kN at the 110 mm seat; the C/C0 ratio of 0.50 is characteristic of a needle bearing — high static rating relative to dynamic in a compact 130 mm outside diameter the fatigue load limit Cur is 45 kN, the limiting speed 4,200 r/min and the thermal reference speed 2,500 r/min; for small needle bearings the reference speed can exceed the kinematic limit, so the lower of the two governs the application dynamic capacity per millimetre of bore is 1.19 kN/mm and per millimetre of width 3.74 kN/mm — the reason 35 mm-wide needle bearings routinely replace much larger ball or roller positions mass is 719 g, just 0.16 g per mm² of projected 130×35 mm envelope, which keeps unbalanced forces low in fast-actuating linkages the 110 mm bore belongs to the large band, where HR1 full-complement and track-roller designs deliver their highest kilonewton ratings in slow, heavily loaded machinery The thin 10.0 mm section makes the 719 g bearing sensitive to seat geometry — a tapered or lobed journal preloads part of the needle set and shows up as local pitting RNA4919-XL has no inner ring: the needle rollers run directly on the shaft journal, so the seat must be hardened (58–64 HRC) and ground to bearing raceway quality The -XL suffix is the Schaeffler X-life mark: interchangeable envelope with the basic bearing, but higher load capacity and lower running temperature at the 4,200 r/min limit. Typical applications include hydraulic and pneumatic pump eccentrics, copying and printing machine mechanisms and agricultural machine pivots and linkages, where the 130 mm outside diameter and 131 kN dynamic rating match the duty. In hydraulic and pneumatic pump eccentrics the unit fits a compact 110 mm seat, and in copying and printing machine mechanisms the 719 g mass keeps unbalanced forces low in fast linkages. Designers also specify it for agricultural machine pivots and linkages, relying on the 35 mm width and the published 260 kN static rating. Open ends draw contamination directly onto the needles; specify sealed or shielded positions in dusty environments rather than relying on grease alone. Adding an IR inner ring changes the envelope logic: the same outer assembly then fits a smaller shaft — recheck bore, clearance and ratings when substituting.
Typical equipment & failure modes
Common applications
- small electric motor accessory drives
- connecting-rod small ends
- planetary gear bearings
- gearbox selector and change linkages
Known failure patterns
- journal brinelling when a no-inner-ring bearing runs on a shaft hardened below 58 HRC or finished too rough
- needle skewing and jamming after momentary unloading of a flangeless (RNAO/NAO) pack
- raceway pitting from contamination drawn through the open ends of an unsealed bearing
- edge loading at the roller ends from a tapered or lobed shaft seat
- cage damage from shock loading or from pressing the bearing through the wrong ring
- lubricant starvation on fast reciprocating strokes that never fully rotate the needles
- false brinelling during stationary transport vibration
- spalling from excessive interference that removes the radial clearance
- roller wear from misaligned connecting-rod eyes and rocker bores
Selection pitfalls — read before you substitute
- Open ends draw contamination directly onto the needles; specify sealed or shielded positions in dusty environments rather than relying on grease alone.
- Adding an IR inner ring changes the envelope logic: the same outer assembly then fits a smaller shaft — recheck bore, clearance and ratings when substituting.
- Without an inner ring the shaft is the raceway: 58–64 HRC and a ground, polished journal are mandatory, not recommendations.
Frequently asked questions
What are the dimensions of the RNA4919-XL?
The RNA4919-XL is a RNA49 dimension-series 49 needle roller bearing without inner ring with 130 mm outside diameter, 110 mm bore and 35 mm width, envelope 110×130×35 mm. Mass is 719 g.
What does the RNA4919-XL designation mean in the FAG/INA HR1 catalogue?
RNA4919-XL identifies this RNA49 dimension-series 49 needle roller bearing without inner ring in the Schaeffler HR1 rolling bearings catalogue; the -XL suffix marks the X-life execution. The envelope is 110×130×35 mm and the catalogue ratings are C 131 kN, C0 260 kN, Cur 45 kN.
What is the load capacity of the RNA4919-XL?
The basic dynamic load rating C is 131 kN and the basic static load rating C0 is 260 kN; the fatigue load limit Cur is 45 kN.
What is the maximum speed of the RNA4919-XL?
The limiting speed is 4,200 r/min and the thermal reference speed is 2,500 r/min. In the Schaeffler catalogue the reference speed is the thermally permissible running speed under defined load; the lower of the two values governs each application.
Can the RNA4919-XL run directly on an ordinary shaft?
Not on a soft shaft. The RNA4919-XL has no inner ring, so the 110 mm journal itself is the raceway: harden it to 58–64 HRC and finish-grind to the catalogue journal tolerance. Where the shaft cannot be hardened, use the corresponding with-inner-ring execution instead.
