How the 61930-2RS-NTN model number is decoded

61930-2RS is closed by two contacting elastomer lips over a lifetime grease fill; the lips add friction, so the speed ceiling sits below the open execution. Within the thin 619xx section (diameter series 9 of ISO 15), multiplying bore code 30 by five gives the 150 mm bore; the 210 mm outside diameter and 28 mm width follow the same boundary-dimension plan. For a rotating inner ring on a 150 mm shaft under normal load, catalogue practice seats it on a m6 shaft fit with an H7 housing bore — confirm against the actual load direction and magnitude before committing. NTN's contact-seal catalogue number is 6930LLU (suffix LLU, or LLH low-torque variant), mapped here from the industry-neutral -2RS spelling; the contacting lip lowers the speed ceiling versus the open bearing.

Typical equipment & failure modes

Selection pitfalls — read before you substitute

• At 150 mm bore the ring mass is significant: heat 61930 on an induction heater (max 120 °C), never over an open flame, and plan puller access or a withdrawal sleeve now for the day it has to come off again.
• The 619xx thin section (30.0 mm section height at 150 mm bore) trades load capacity for compactness; stiff, accurately aligned seats are essential or edge loading will spall the raceway early.
• Heat is the enemy of the sealed 61930-2RS: sustained running near the lip temperature limit hardens the rubber, after which grease escapes and dirt tracks in — watch the housing temperature in hot drives.
• Never wash a sealed 61930-2RS-NTN in solvent or press it home via the outer ring; solvent destroys the grease thickener and mounting force through the seal deforms the lip.
• Suffixes stack in a defined order — clearance follows the seal code, e.g. 61930-2RS-NTN-C3. No clearance suffix means normal CN clearance.
• Deep-groove ball bearings tolerate only minutes of misalignment; if the 210 mm housing cannot be aligned, switch to a self-aligning type rather than shimming 61930-2RS-NTN.
• NTN catalogues the contact-sealed version as 6930LLU (suffix LU), mapped here from the industry-neutral -2RS spelling; it is greased for life and the contacting lip lowers the speed ceiling versus the open bearing.
• The 150 mm bore places 61930 at the lower end of NTN's large-size range; at these diameters the pressed-steel cage is speed-limited and NTN commonly supplies a machined brass cage (suffix M) as an option. Verify cage material and relubrication interval with the NTN distributor, and do not extrapolate small-bore speed ratings to this size.
• NTN lists the grease limiting speed at 1700 r/min for 61930; this is a large or heavy-section size where centrifugal force and cage inertia cap the speed — for higher shaft speeds either step to a smaller bearing on the same bore or consult NTN for an oil-lubricated, machined-cage variant.
• At 94 kN dynamic load rating (C) and 90.5 kN static (C0), 4.55 kN fatigue load limit Cu, 61930 is a heavy-load bearing for industrial gearboxes and large conveyors; NTN expects a machined brass cage (suffix M) at this rating for shock duty, and the static C0 must be checked against any mounting or lifting loads.
• At 2470 g (2.5 kg), 61930 needs mechanical handling for mounting; NTN recommends induction heating the inner ring (max 120 °C) rather than pressing cold, and a lifting eye if the housing is pre-assembled.
• The 150×210×28 mm envelope of 61930 gives a D/d ratio of 1.40 and 30.0 mm radial section height — this thin section saves space but is sensitive to misalignment and shock; confirm the housing stays round within IT7 and the shaft does not deflect past the raceway contact angle under load.
• The 94/90.5 kN load ratings, 4.55 kN fatigue load limit Cu NTN lists the grease limiting speed at 1700 r/min for this designation; oil-mist or jet lubrication raises the ceiling but requires a sealed-housing review. and 2470 g mass here are NTN Ball and Roller Bearings CAT.No.2203-3/E figures for 6930LLU on the 150×210×28 mm ISO 15 envelope; internal geometry and ratings legitimately differ between brands, so re-verify before substituting another manufacturer's 61930 in a rated drive.
• Factory-fill grease in NTN sealed units is a general-duty lithium-soap grease; food-grade, low-temperature and high-temperature fills are request options at order time, because LLU/LLB units are not meant to be opened and re-greased in the field.
• Two NTN bearings of the same designation from different production lots can carry minor internal-geometry revisions; for paired or preloaded arrangements on one shaft, order a single lot through the NTN distributor.
