SKF series 22 self-aligning ball bearings are double-row ball bearings with a spherical raceway in the outer ring, which allows them to align themselves automatically and compensate for angular misalignment. They are used in applications where the shaft may flex or the housings are not perfectly aligned. MR Accesorios Industriales sells this series with sealing and polyamide cage, ready to quote.
The designation of these bearings reads as follows: the base number indicates the size and load capacity. The suffix E indicates an optimized internal design with higher capacity. Then, 2RS1 indicates contact rubber sealing on both sides, which retains the lubricant and blocks contaminants. Finally, TN9 identifies a glass fiber reinforced polyamide cage, suitable for high speeds and moderate temperatures.
These bearings are used in equipment with long shafts or housings that may become misaligned: conveyors, fans, centrifugal pumps, textile machines, bottling equipment and mixers. In Argentine industry, they are common in food, chemical and water treatment plants. Their self-aligning capability reduces the risk of premature failures due to shaft flexing or imperfect mounting, and the 2RS1 sealing makes them suitable for environments with moderate dust or humidity.
To select correctly, take into account the radial and axial load, the rotation speed and the environment. The 2RS1 sealing is already lubricated at the factory and requires no additional maintenance; if the equipment operates at high temperatures or high speeds, a metal cage may be preferable. During mounting, ensure reasonable initial alignment: although the bearing compensates for misalignment, an excessive angle shortens its life. Avoid striking the rings during mounting and verify that the shaft and housing have the appropriate tolerances.
Regarding equivalents, SKF series 22 self-aligning ball bearings can be interchanged with those of other brands that follow the same dimensional designation, such as FAG, NSK or NTN, as long as the type, dimensions and sealing match. However, verify the tolerances and load capacity, because they may vary between manufacturers. For replacements, the safest approach is to compare the complete part number and the service conditions. If you have doubts, ask us with the original part number.
If you need to replace a self-aligning ball bearing or assemble new equipment, send us the complete part number by WhatsApp to MR Accesorios Industriales.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What are the dimensions of the SKF 2213 E-2RS1TN9 bearing?
- The SKF 2213 E-2RS1TN9 bearing has a 65 mm bore, a 120 mm outside diameter and a 31 mm width (65 x 120 x 31 mm). These are the standardised boundary dimensions (ISO 15) of the basic designation 2213.
- What does the 2RS1 suffix mean on an SKF bearing?
- It indicates that the bearing has contact rubber seals on both sides. These seals retain the lubricant and prevent the entry of dust, water or contaminants, so it requires no relubrication and is suitable for moderately aggressive environments.
- Does this bearing allow misalignment?
- Yes, self-aligning ball bearings compensate for angular misalignment between the shaft and the housing, thanks to their spherical raceway in the outer ring. This reduces stresses and extends service life in applications with flexible shafts or misaligned housings.
- Can I replace a bearing from another brand with this SKF one?
- In general, yes, if the main dimensions, sealing type and load capacity match. We recommend verifying the complete part number and the operating conditions. Ask us with the original part number and we will help you find the right equivalent.
