For equipment built around imperial shaft and housing dimensions, the SKF EE series covers inch deep groove ball bearings that carry radial and axial loads in either direction. Their compact envelope suits tight assemblies that still need to run at speed without vibration or drag. MR Industrial Accessories LLC supplies this line to maintenance and purchasing teams across the United States and Latin America.
Reading the designation is the fastest way to confirm what you are ordering. The EE prefix marks the inch deep groove ball bearing family, and the figure after it is the size code for that particular bearing. A TN9 suffix means the unit runs a polyamide 6.6 cage with glass fiber reinforcement, a cage built for moderate operating temperatures. Two examples from the range, EE 2 TN9 and EE 3 TN9, differ only in size while sharing that same cage construction.
Centrifugal pumps, fans, conveyors, machine tools and power transmission assemblies are typical homes for these bearings. Because the dimensions follow imperial standards, they drop into shafts and housings sized to inch conventions, which is common on imported machinery and on older installations that predate a metric conversion. Food, chemical, petrochemical and general process plants are the sectors that call for them most often.
Selection comes down to four points: the radial load, the axial load, the running speed and the surrounding conditions. Where dust or moisture is present, a variant with seals or shields is the better choice. At assembly, align shaft and housing carefully and lubricate to suit the actual temperature and speed. Getting those steps right is what keeps the bearing running quietly between service intervals.
Interchange is possible with bearings from other makers that carry the same designation and inch dimensions, but the tolerances and the cage style have to line up with the application. Equivalent references are not identical in every respect, so it pays to check the specification against the original before substituting. Have the complete part number of the existing bearing on hand when you ask for a cross.
To request a quote, send the full part number, for example EE 2 TN9 or EE 3 TN9, through WhatsApp or by email. The team answers quickly, can point you to equivalent references and will help you match the right bearing to the application. MR Industrial Accessories LLC also manufactures split plummer block housings, roller chains and sheaves at its Miami operation.

Frequently asked questions
- What does the TN9 suffix tell me about an SKF bearing?
- It identifies a polyamide 6.6 cage reinforced with glass fiber. The cage is light, resists corrosion and works at moderate temperatures, and it leaves the bearing's outer dimensions unchanged.
- How can I tell whether an inch bearing fits my equipment?
- Check the shaft and housing dimensions in inches, then confirm the load type and the speed the equipment runs at. The full part number of the bearing you are replacing is the surest way to pin down the correct item.
- Are there equivalents to SKF EE series bearings from other makers?
- Other manufacturers offer bearings with comparable designations and inch dimensions. Tolerances and performance can differ, so review the technical data and confirm the cross with a specialist before you install it.
