SKF RL TN series self-aligning ball bearings are ball bearings with a spherical outer ring and two rows of balls, which allows them to self-align and compensate for angular misalignment between shaft and housing. They are used in equipment where shaft deflection or mounting errors are unavoidable, such as fans, conveyors and agricultural machinery. Their robust design and their ability to withstand radial and moderate axial loads make them a reliable solution for demanding industrial applications.

The designation of the RL TN series is interpreted as follows: RL identifies the series of self-aligning ball bearings with a spherical outer ring; the number that follows (for example, 4 or 5 in RL 4 TN9 and RL 5 TN9) indicates the size or bore diameter according to the series table; and the suffix TN9 indicates that the cage is made of polyamide reinforced with glass fiber, suitable for moderate temperatures and normal speeds. Knowing these codes allows you to quickly identify the correct bearing for your equipment.

In Argentine industry, these bearings are found in centrifugal fans, conveyor belts, vibrating screens, agricultural machines (seeders, harvesters) and process equipment in food and chemical plants. Their self-aligning capacity makes them ideal for long shafts that deflect under load or for assemblies where perfect alignment between supports is not achieved. MR Accesorios Industriales carries the SKF brand, a world reference in bearings, with more than 80 years of experience in the field.

To select the appropriate bearing, take into account the radial and axial load it must withstand, the rotation speed and the environmental conditions. Sealing is key: if there is dust or moisture, choose variants with seals or shields. Lubrication must be the one indicated by the manufacturer, generally high-quality grease. During installation, verify that the housing has the appropriate sphericity to allow self-alignment and avoid blows that could damage the raceways. Careful initial alignment prolongs service life.

As for equivalences, SKF RL TN series self-aligning ball bearings can be interchanged with products from other brands that follow the same international nomenclature, such as FAG, NSK or NTN, as long as dimensions and tolerances match. It is essential to verify the complete code and the technical specifications before replacing one bearing with another of a different brand. If in doubt, consult our technical team.
