How the 6320-RSR-NTN model number is decoded
6320-RSR uses two non-contact elastomer lips with very low drag; coarse debris stays out, but the bearing is not liquid-tight. Within the medium 63xx section (diameter series 3 of ISO 15), multiplying bore code 20 by five gives the 100 mm bore; the 215 mm outside diameter and 47 mm width follow the same boundary-dimension plan. For a rotating inner ring on a 100 mm shaft under normal load, catalogue practice seats it on a k5 shaft fit with an H7 housing bore — confirm against the actual load direction and magnitude before committing. NTN's non-contact seal suffix is LLB/LLF (catalogue number 6320LLB), 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
- industrial fans and blowers
- hoists and winches
- heavy conveyors
- pulp and paper machinery
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
- edge loading from shaft deflection or housing misalignment
- rolling-contact fatigue spalling after the rated L10 life is exceeded
Selection pitfalls — read before you substitute
- At 100 mm bore the ring mass is significant: heat 6320 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 63xx medium section at 100 mm bore gains dynamic rating through larger rolling elements on a 215 mm OD; the penalty is mass and a lower limiting speed than the 6220 — do not specify it for speed-critical shafts.
- The low-drag lip of 6320-RSR-NTN 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.
- The non-contact lip of 6320-RSR-NTN does not retain a lifetime grease fill the way a contact seal does; confirm the regreasing interval for the 100 mm bore position before relying on it as sealed-for-life.
- Shaft and housing fillets must clear the bearing chamfer so the 47 mm-wide ring seats square; provide an undercut or withdrawal groove instead of relying on an oversized radius.
- 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.
- NTN catalogues this low-friction non-contact seal as 6320LLB (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).
- At 100 mm bore 6320 is in NTN's medium industrial range; the pressed-steel cage is standard but large-section 63xx/64xx 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 NTN channel if the application sees impact loads.
- NTN lists the grease limiting speed at 3200 r/min for 6320; 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 192 kN dynamic load rating (C) and 141 kN static (C0), 8.75 kN fatigue load limit Cu, 6320 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 7000 g (7.0 kg), 6320 is a heavy bearing that requires a crane or hoist for handling; induction-heat the inner ring (max 120 °C) and use a mechanical puller for removal — never apply heat directly to the balls or cage.
- The 100×215×47 mm envelope of 6320 gives a D/d ratio of 2.15 and 57.5 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 192/141 kN load ratings, 8.75 kN fatigue load limit Cu NTN lists the grease limiting speed at 3200 r/min for this designation; oil-mist or jet lubrication raises the ceiling but requires a sealed-housing review. and 7000 g mass here are NTN Ball and Roller Bearings CAT.No.2203-3/E figures for 6320LLB on the 100×215×47 mm ISO 15 envelope; internal geometry and ratings legitimately differ between brands, so re-verify before substituting another manufacturer's 6320 in a rated drive.
- 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.
- 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.
Frequently asked questions
What are the dimensions of a 6320-RSR-NTN bearing?
A 6320-RSR-NTN deep-groove ball bearing has a 100 mm bore, 215 mm outer diameter and 47 mm width (3.937 × 8.465 × 1.85 in), per ISO 15 boundary dimensions. It is fitted with two low-friction non-contact rubber seals.
What internal clearance does 6320-RSR-NTN have?
Unless a clearance suffix says otherwise, 6320-RSR-NTN is manufactured to normal (CN) radial internal clearance. Tight fits and hot shafts consume clearance in service — for those conditions order the C3 execution of 6320 and verify the residual clearance after mounting.
How should 6320-RSR-NTN be mounted?
Apply the mounting force to the ring being fitted: on a 100 mm shaft seat the press load must pass through the inner-ring face only. Induction heating of the inner ring (max 120 °C) is the clean method at this size. Never strike the outer ring, the cage or the seals.
What is the NTN suffix for a sealed 6320?
NTN uses suffix LLU for the contact rubber seal (catalogue number 6320LLB), 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 100×215×47 mm ISO 15 envelope.
Does NTN offer 6320 with C3 clearance?
Yes — most NTN deep-groove sizes can be ordered with C3 internal clearance (suffix C3 follows the seal code). C3 suits tight fits and hot shafts; for normal fits at moderate temperature the standard CN clearance of 6320LLB is the correct choice.
