How the 5310S model number is decoded
From the heavy-duty 5300S double-row family, 5310S measures 50 mm across the bore, 110 mm over the outer ring and 44.4 mm across the faces. Reading the code: 53 is the double-row dimension series (heavy-duty 5300S double-row family), 10 encodes the 50 mm bore (bore code x 5), and the trailing S marks the current internal design of the family. NTN prints 81.5 kN dynamic and 61.5 kN static for this size and a 3.8 kN fatigue load limit Pu. Where the same envelope must also be sealed, or where mounting mistakes are likely, compare with the double-row 52/53 catalogue pages before fixing the bill of materials. After mounting, check axial float or preload with a dial gauge on the shaft end — the specification, not hand feel, decides whether the contact angle works as rated.
Typical equipment & failure modes
Common applications
- gearbox input shafts under helical-gear thrust
- electric motor shafts with axial locating duty
- conveyor drive and tension-drum shafts
- agricultural gearbox and PTO shaft supports
Known failure patterns
- impact brinelling dents on the 30 deg contact path after a shaft-side hammer blow during mounting, because axial shock travels straight through the contact angle
- loss of preload after housing-fret or shaft creep, leaving the pair loose — ball skidding, cage rattle and a falling natural frequency follow
- resin-cage cracking on the 7900-series sizes after hot, dry running or solvent attack on the polymer
- edge loading and early spalling from housing bores that are out of round or shoulders that are too small for the ring face
- edge loading and early spalling from housing bores that are out of round or shoulders that are too small for the ring face
Selection pitfalls — read before you substitute
- In this size class the common miss is lubrication interval, not fit — a 50 mm spindle at the catalogue speeds needs a calculated relubrication plan, not a calendar one.
- The double-row bearing takes reversing thrust in one envelope, but its two contact lines mean more heat than a single row at the same speed — check the thermal balance before copying a single-row speed figure.
- The 4,300 r/min speed figure assumes the catalogue lubrication state and a correctly set pair; real limits drop fast with excess grease fill or heavy preload.
- Do not pair two random 5310S bearings from stock and expect catalogue paired ratings — matched-set grinding is what makes DB/DF/DT preload behave, and NTN sells those as separate order numbers.
- Never use a four-point or double-row bearing as a like-for-like swap for a single 5310S without re-checking axial float, heat and housing width — the kinematics differ.
- The 81.5/61.5 kN ratings and 3.8 kN Pu here are NTN Ball and Roller Bearings CAT.No.2203E figures for 5310S; internal geometry legitimately differs between manufacturers, so re-verify ratings, contact angle and suffix before substituting another make on a rated drive.
Frequently asked questions
What are the dimensions and catalogue ratings of NTN 5310S?
5310S is a double-row angular contact ball bearing to ISO 15: 50 mm bore, 110 mm outside diameter, 44.4 mm width (1.969 x 4.331 x 1.748 in). From NTN Ball and Roller Bearings CAT.No.2203E: C 81.5 kN, C0 61.5 kN and a 3.8 kN fatigue load limit Pu; the grease limiting speed is 4,300 r/min and the oil rating 5,600 r/min; mass about 1840 g.
How is the 5310S designation structured?
53 is the double-row dimension series (heavy-duty 5300S double-row family); 10 encodes the 50 mm bore (bore code x 5), and the trailing S marks the current internal design of the family. The 110 mm OD and 44.4 mm width follow the ISO 15 boundary-dimension plan for that series.
Which axial direction does 5310S support?
5310S is a double-row bearing working like a built-in back-to-back pair: it takes thrust in both directions plus radial load and moment (tilting) load in a single envelope.
What lubrication speeds does NTN print for 5310S?
Per NTN Ball and Roller Bearings CAT.No.2203E, the grease limiting speed is 4,300 r/min and the oil rating 5,600 r/min. These are catalogue ceilings for a correctly mounted bearing with the stated lubricant; preload, fill quantity, ambient heat and paired arrangements all move the real limit.
What should be checked before substituting another make for 5310S?
The 50/110/44.4 mm envelope is ISO 15 interchangeable, but internal geometry — contact angle, osculation, cage and shoulder details — is maker-specific. Re-verify C 81.5 kN / C0 61.5 kN, the speed figures, contact angle and suffix meaning against the donor catalogue before swapping on a rated drive.
