How the 6314-RSR model number is decoded

In the 6300-series (diameter series 3 of ISO 15) the last two digits encode the bore: 6314 carries bore code 14 = 70 mm. Outside diameter 150 mm and width 35 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 70 mm shaft, typical catalogue practice is a k5 shaft seat with an H7 housing bore — verify against the actual load direction and magnitude. NSK's non-contact seal suffix is VV (catalogue number 6314VV), mapped here from the industry-neutral -RSR spelling; speed capability is close to the open bearing but VV is not liquid-tight.

Typical equipment & failure modes

Selection pitfalls — read before you substitute

• Interference on a 70 mm shaft plus running heat consumes radial clearance: where the shaft runs hot or the fit is tight, order 6314 with C3 clearance and re-check the residual value after mounting.
• The 63xx medium section at 70 mm bore gains dynamic rating through larger rolling elements on a 150 mm OD; the penalty is mass and a lower limiting speed than the 6214 — do not specify it for speed-critical shafts.
• RSR low-friction seals on 6314-RSR run faster than contact-seal 6314-2RS but let fine dust and moisture past the non-contact lip; in dirty or wet duty specify 6314-2RS instead.
• The low-drag lip of 6314-RSR barely touches the inner ring; after long shelf storage the grease can separate, so rotate the rings by hand and confirm smooth, silent running before fitting.
• Assign fits by which ring rotates: an interference shaft fit for a rotating inner ring; if the outer ring rotates instead, reverse the logic — a loose rotating ring creeps and frets its seat.
• Suffixes stack in a defined order — clearance follows the seal code, e.g. 6314-C3. No clearance suffix means normal CN clearance.
• NSK catalogues this low-friction non-contact seal as 6314VV (suffix VV), mapped here from the industry-neutral -RSR spelling. NSK rates its speed capability close to the open bearing, but VV is not liquid-tight — for wet or fine-dust duty step up to the DDU contact seal (industry-neutral -2RS).
• At 70 mm bore 6314 is in NSK's upper general-purpose range; the pressed-steel cage is standard, but mid-section 63xx sizes at this bore can be ordered with a machined brass cage (suffix M) for heavy-shock or very-low-speed duty — confirm cage material with the NSK channel if the application sees impact loads.
• At 115 kN dynamic load rating (C) and 68 kN static (C0), 6314 is a heavy-load NSK bearing for industrial gearboxes and large conveyors; NSK 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 2570 g (2.6 kg), 6314 needs mechanical handling for mounting; NSK recommends induction heating the inner ring (max 120 °C) rather than pressing cold, and a lifting eye if the housing is pre-assembled.
• The 70×150×35 mm envelope of 6314 gives a D/d ratio of 2.14 and 40.0 mm radial section height — a heavy NSK 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 115/68 kN load ratings, mass 2570 g here are NSK Rolling Bearings E1103 Part C catalogue figures for 6314VV on the 70×150×35 mm ISO 15 envelope; internal geometry and ratings legitimately differ between brands, so re-verify before substituting another manufacturer's 6314 in a rated drive. NSK does not tabulate reference or limiting speeds in the E1103 Part C dimension tables used for this page — consult NSK's separate speed-rating tables before high-speed service.
• Standard P0 runout from NSK is adequate up to the catalogue limiting speed on ground shaft seats; spindle or instrument positions should specify P6/P5 accuracy explicitly — it is a different order code, not a sorting of standard stock.
• Keep NSK bearings in the original packaging until fitting: the wrapper carries the production lot, and the unopened shelf life of greased sealed units is typically quoted at three to five years in dry, vibration-free storage.
