Mounting, lubrication & life for 6307-RSR-NTN

Recommended fits & mounting

  • Rotating inner ring on a 35 mm shaft: k5; housing bore H7 for normal stationary-load outer rings. Reverse the logic if the outer ring rotates.
  • Fit by induction heating (max 120 °C) where practical — never drive the ring home through the rolling elements.
  • Keep shaft and housing fillet radii below the bearing chamfer so the 21 mm-wide ring seats square on its shoulder.

Lubrication strategy

Non-contact low-drag seal lips retain the factory grease but are not liquid-tight. Treat as grease-for-life in light, dry duty; in dirty or wet positions plan replacement around contamination rather than fatigue.

Worked L10 life example (illustrative duty)

For ball bearings, L10h = (C/P)3 · 106 / (60·n). Taking an example radial equivalent load P = 3 kN at n = 1,500 r/min (a small belted motor duty — substitute the real equivalent load from the application calculation):

C = 37.0 kN → L10h ≈ 20,845 hours

How the 6307-RSR-NTN model number is decoded

In the 6300-series (diameter series 3 of ISO 15) the last two digits encode the bore: 6307 carries bore code 07 = 35 mm. Outside diameter 80 mm and width 21 mm come from the ISO 15 boundary-dimensions general plan. Suffix -RSR denotes two low-friction non-contact elastomer seals; they keep coarse debris out with minimal drag but are not liquid-tight. For normal-load mounting with a rotating inner ring on a 35 mm shaft, typical catalogue practice is a k5 shaft seat with an H7 housing bore — verify against the actual load direction and magnitude. NTN's non-contact seal suffix is LLB/LLF (catalogue number 6307LLB), mapped here from the industry-neutral -RSR spelling; speed capability matches the open bearing but it is not liquid-tight.

Typical equipment & failure modes

Common applications

  • fans and blowers
  • electric motors
  • centrifugal pumps
  • small gearboxes

Known failure patterns

  • ingress of fine dust or moisture past the non-contact lip in dirty or wet duty (RSR is not liquid-tight)
  • lip-lubricant starvation if the bearing runs dry for extended periods
  • cage damage from operation beyond the limiting speed
  • electrical pitting in VFD-driven motors without grounding protection

Selection pitfalls — read before you substitute

  • Sizes around 35 mm bore are normally pressed on cold with a sleeve against the inner-ring face; the press force must never route through the outer ring or the balls of 6307-RSR-NTN.
  • The 63xx medium series gains rating at 35 mm bore through a 80 mm OD and 21 mm width; the heavier rolling elements also trade away some speed versus a 6207.
  • RSR low-friction seals on 6307-RSR-NTN run faster than contact-seal 6307-2RS but let fine dust and moisture past the non-contact lip; in dirty or wet duty specify 6307-2RS instead.
  • The non-contact lip of 6307-RSR-NTN does not retain a lifetime grease fill the way a contact seal does; confirm the regreasing interval for the 35 mm bore position before relying on it as sealed-for-life.
  • Grease compatibility is not guaranteed between fills: mixing lithium and polyurea thickeners in a 6300-series position can soften the mixture and leak — clean out the old fill before switching grease types.
  • Do not quieten a noisy bearing by preloading it: the 6300-series is a deep-groove design, not angular-contact; axial preload raises temperature and shortens grease life.
  • NTN catalogues this low-friction non-contact seal as 6307LLB (suffix LLB), mapped here from the industry-neutral -RSR spelling. NTN rates its speed capability the same as the open bearing, but it is not liquid-tight — for wet or fine-dust duty step up to the LLU contact seal (industry-neutral -2RS).
  • The 35 mm bore puts 6307 in NTN's general-purpose industrial range; the standard pressed-steel cage and CN clearance cover most electric-motor and pump duty, but for continuous high-speed use specify the LLH low-torque seal (not LLU) and confirm the housing allows the listed limiting speed.
  • At 7300 r/min the grease limiting speed for 6307 covers medium-duty industrial drives; the open or shielded execution can run continuously at this speed with standard lithium-soap grease.
  • NTN rates 6307 at 37 kN dynamic (C) and 19.1 kN static (C0), 1.47 kN fatigue load limit Cu; this upper-medium rating covers conveyor and gearbox drives, but at these loads the pressed-steel cage can be the limiting factor under shock — consider the machined brass cage (suffix M) for impact duty.
  • At 457 g, 6307 requires a soft-jaw vise or arbor press for mounting — never hammer it onto the shaft, and support the opposite ring to avoid brinelling the raceways.
  • The 35×80×21 mm envelope of 6307 gives a D/d ratio of 2.29 and 22.5 mm radial section height — a heavy section built for high-load, lower-speed duty; specifying it in a high-rpm motor generates excess heat and shortens grease life, so prefer a 62/63-series there.
  • The 37/19.1 kN load ratings, 1.47 kN fatigue load limit Cu NTN lists the grease limiting speed at 7300 r/min for this designation; oil-mist or jet lubrication raises the ceiling but requires a sealed-housing review. and 457 g mass here are NTN Ball and Roller Bearings CAT.No.2203-3/E figures for 6307LLB on the 35×80×21 mm ISO 15 envelope; internal geometry and ratings legitimately differ between brands, so re-verify before substituting another manufacturer's 6307 in a rated drive.
  • Standard catalogue stock of 6307 is the general-purpose execution; for low-noise motor duty NTN offers low-torque seal and special-grease variants in this size class, which are separate order numbers.
  • Order the C3 internal-clearance version (6307 with C3 after the seal code) when the shaft fit is tight or the shaft-to-housing temperature gradient exceeds roughly 10 °C — the residual clearance after mounting, not the catalogue CN figure, decides service life.

Frequently asked questions

What are the dimensions of a 6307-RSR-NTN bearing?

A 6307-RSR-NTN deep-groove ball bearing has a 35 mm bore, 80 mm outer diameter and 21 mm width (1.378 × 3.15 × 0.827 in), per ISO 15 boundary dimensions. It is fitted with two low-friction non-contact rubber seals.

How does the 6307 bore code work?

The last two digits of 6307 are bore code 07, giving 07 × 5 = 35 mm bore. The 80 mm outside diameter and 21 mm width follow the ISO 15 diameter series, not the bore code alone.

What does the RSR suffix on 6307-RSR mean?

RSR means two low-friction non-contact rubber seals. They keep coarse debris out with minimal drag (speed close to the open bearing) but are not liquid-tight; use -2RS contact seals for wet or fine-dust environments.

What is the NTN suffix for a sealed 6307?

NTN uses suffix LLU for the contact rubber seal (catalogue number 6307LLB), LLB/LLF for non-contact rubber seals, LLH for the low-torque contact seal and ZZ for steel shields. The industry-neutral spellings on this page (-2RS / -RSR / -ZZ) map to those NTN suffixes while keeping the 35×80×21 mm ISO 15 envelope.

What cage does NTN fit in 6307LLB?

Standard is a pressed-steel cage with no suffix; larger sizes or shock-loaded duty can be supplied with a machined brass cage (suffix M) as a separate order number. The catalogue figures quoted here are for the pressed-steel execution.
