These bearings are designed to accommodate shaft deflection when running and will also cope with initial misalignment. The double row bearing is designed primarily to withstand radial load with a small capacity for axial load. Also available with ring seals (rubbing seals) made from oil-resistant, non-wearing synthetic rubber with steel reinforcement on both sides (Type 2RS1).

ETN9 and KTN9 are Open self-aligning bearings without a seal available in parallel or Taper bores.

2RS1TN9 are sealed (NBR) bearings packed with grease with a lithium thickener suitable for temperatures from -40°C to + 100°C. They are sealed for life, so should not be heated above 80°C before mounting and must not be washed out under any circumstances.

TN suffix denotes polyamide cage

This double-row ball bearing from SKF is designed to withstand both radial and axial loads. It's self-aligning, so it copes well with any initial misalignment. With an oil-resistant, non-wearing synthetic rubber seal on both ends, it keeps out water, dirt, dust and other particles that could result in increased friction or damage to the bearing. It's also sealed with grease containing a lithium thickener that's safe for use at temperatures between -40°C and +100°C, making it useful in a wide range of industrial environments. Stainless steel gives the bearing a durable, rust-resistant finish.
