How the 1320K model number is decoded
In the 1300-series (ISO 15 dimension series) the leading digits 13 mark a double-row self-aligning ball bearing and the last two digits encode the bore: 1320 carries bore code 20 = 100 mm. Outside diameter 215 mm and width 47 mm follow the ISO 15 general plan. The K suffix denotes a 1:12 tapered bore for mounting on an adapter sleeve or tapered shaft seat; the cylindrical-bore equivalent is 1320. Two rows of balls run on a common sphered outer raceway, allowing the inner ring to pivot and compensate for shaft deflection or housing misalignment.
Typical equipment & failure modes
Common applications
- pulp, paper and steel mill machinery
- heavy industrial drive shafts
- large gearbox and reducer shafts
- industrial fan and blower rotors
Known failure patterns
- contamination wear from dust and dirt ingress through the open arrangement
- lubricant starvation when no regreasing interval is maintained
- rolling-contact fatigue spalling after the rated L10 life is exceeded
- cage wear or fracture from sustained vibration or shock loading
Selection pitfalls — read before you substitute
- Mount this 100 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 13xx medium section at 100 mm bore gains rating through a larger 215 mm OD and 47 mm width; verify the housing accepts the larger envelope before substituting for a 1220.
- Tapered-bore 1320K requires a matching adapter sleeve (e.g. H2xx for small bores, H3xx for larger); verify the sleeve bore code matches the 100 mm shaft before ordering.
- The adapter sleeve adds length and a small radial step; check that the housing bore and shaft shoulder clear the sleeve nut and that the withdrawal nut is accessible for future dismounting.
- A 100 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.
Frequently asked questions
What are the dimensions of a 1320K self-aligning ball bearing?
A 1320K self-aligning ball bearing has a 100 mm bore, 215 mm outer diameter and 47 mm width, per ISO 15 boundary dimensions. The K suffix indicates a 1:12 tapered bore for adapter-sleeve mounting; the cylindrical-bore version is 1320.
How does the 1320 bore code work?
The last two digits of 1320 are bore code 20, giving 20 × 5 = 100 mm bore. The 215 mm outside diameter and 47 mm width follow the ISO 15 diameter series, not the bore code alone.
What does the K suffix mean on 1320K?
The K suffix denotes a 1:12 tapered bore for mounting with an adapter sleeve. The cylindrical-bore equivalent is 1320. Adapter sleeves are sold separately and must match the bore code.
How does the 1300 compare with other self-aligning series at the same 100 mm bore?
The 13xx is the medium section: 215×47 mm, 57.5 mm radial section at 100 mm bore, carrying more load than a 1220 but needing a larger housing bore.
