How the 6322-ZZ-NTN model number is decoded

In the 6300-series (diameter series 3 of ISO 15) the last two digits encode the bore: 6322 carries bore code 22 = 110 mm. Outside diameter 240 mm and width 50 mm come from the ISO 15 boundary-dimensions general plan. Suffix -ZZ denotes two non-contact metallic shields; they retain grease and block coarse debris but are not liquid-tight. For normal-load mounting with a rotating inner ring on a 110 mm shaft, typical catalogue practice is a m6 shaft seat with an H7 housing bore — verify against the actual load direction and magnitude. NTN catalogue order number: 6322ZZ (suffix ZZ), two non-contact steel shields, mapped here from the industry-neutral -ZZ spelling.

Typical equipment & failure modes

Selection pitfalls — read before you substitute

• Mount this 110 mm bore bearing by heating the inner ring (induction heater, max 120 °C) — never drive it home through the outer ring or balls, that brinells the raceways.
• The 63xx medium section at 110 mm bore gains dynamic rating through larger rolling elements on a 240 mm OD; the penalty is mass and a lower limiting speed than the 6222 — do not specify it for speed-critical shafts.
• ZZ shields are non-contact: 6322-ZZ-NTN blocks chips and coarse dust but is not waterproof — do not install it expecting a pressure-wash seal, step up to 6322-2RS for that.
• Shielded 6322-ZZ-NTN units are typically greased for life; prying the shields out for regreasing usually bends them and leaves a gap that throws grease in service.
• A 110 mm bore listing showing the right d/D/B but no standard or precision-class reference may be a loose-tolerance import; measure bore/OD spread before fitting it to a machined shaft.
• Vibration during standstill brinells the raceways of a 110 mm bearing at ball spacing; if the machine sits idle next to running equipment, turn the shaft over periodically or isolate the arrangement.
• NTN catalogues the shielded version as 6322ZZ — suffix ZZ, two non-contact steel shields. The industry-neutral page spelling is -ZZ; quote the NTN order number when buying through an NTN channel.
• At 110 mm bore 6322 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 2900 r/min for 6322; 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 227 kN dynamic load rating (C) and 179 kN static (C0), 10.5 kN fatigue load limit Cu, 6322 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 9540 g (9.5 kg), 6322 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 110×240×50 mm envelope of 6322 gives a D/d ratio of 2.18 and 65.0 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 227/179 kN load ratings, 10.5 kN fatigue load limit Cu NTN lists the grease limiting speed at 2900 r/min for this designation; oil-mist or jet lubrication raises the ceiling but requires a sealed-housing review. and 9540 g mass here are NTN Ball and Roller Bearings CAT.No.2203-3/E figures for 6322ZZ on the 110×240×50 mm ISO 15 envelope; internal geometry and ratings legitimately differ between brands, so re-verify before substituting another manufacturer's 6322 in a rated drive.
• Standard catalogue stock of 6322 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.
• 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.
