How the N2313 model number is decoded

NTN lists N2313 on the 65×140 mm envelope, 48 mm wide: a line-contact radial bearing with a pressed sheet-steel cage and a grease limiting speed of 4,400 r/min. Digit by digit, N2313 reads as N (inner ring ribbed, outer ring ribless), ISO 15 series, and bore 65 mm; trailing letters such as EA or E mark the cage/capacity execution and are part of the order number. Line contact between rollers and raceways gives N2313 high radial capacity but no tolerance for misalignment: beyond roughly 3–4 arc-minutes the roller ends edge-load and fatigue accelerates. Selection arithmetic: Pu 25.7 kN is the fatigue load limit feeding the adjusted-life equation, and the C0/C ratio of 1.02 (212/208 kN) shows the high-static-capacity proportioning of this 65 mm bore. Housing and shaft fillets must clear the ring chamfers of N2313; an oversized radius locks the ring on its face and tilts the 48 mm-wide seat.

Typical equipment & failure modes

Common applications

  • crusher and vibrating-screen drive shafts
  • marine gearbox and deck-machinery shafts
  • large electric-motor and generator rotors
  • cement and mining conveyor drive pulleys

Known failure patterns

  • roller smearing (microwelding) at start-up before the oil film builds under insufficient radial load
  • cage wear accelerated when the EA high-capacity roller complement runs continuously above its thermal balance
  • micro-pitting when the EHL film falls below the composite roughness at high specific load
  • hard-particle indentation of raceways in unfiltered oil or open arrangements
  • fretting corrosion on a loose rotating shaft seat

Selection pitfalls — read before you substitute

  • Induction-heat the 65 mm inner ring (max 120 °C) and mount it before fitting the outer ring; the ring mass makes square guidance essential — driving through the rollers brinells the 140 mm raceway.
  • The 48 mm width and abutment faces must be square to the axis; a tilted spacer concentrates load across the roller set and shows as uneven raceway polish on the 65 mm inner ring.
  • Wide (22/23) and light (10/49) executions at 65 mm bore share bore but not OD/width; check the full N2300 series code before substituting, because housing and shoulder geometry will not interchange.
  • Minimum radial load is frequently missed in oversized motor and fan selections: an underloaded N2313 skids at 4,400 r/min and fails by smearing long before L10 fatigue.
  • Wide (22/23) and light (10/49) executions at 65 mm bore share bore but not OD/width; check the full N2300 series code before substituting, because housing and shoulder geometry will not interchange.
  • The 208/212 kN ratings, 25.7 kN Pu and 3200 g mass are NTN Ball and Roller Bearings CAT.No.2203E values for N2313 (standard execution); other makes sharing the ISO 15 envelope revise internal geometry without changing the order number, so keep the 2203E reference with the specification for critical drives.

Frequently asked questions

What are the dimensions and catalogue data of N2313?

N2313 is an NTN N single-row cylindrical roller bearing to ISO 15: 65 mm bore, 140 mm OD and 48 mm width (2.559 × 5.512 × 1.89 in). From NTN Ball and Roller Bearings CAT.No.2203E: C 208 kN, C0 212 kN, Pu 25.7 kN, grease limiting speed 4,400 r/min, oil 5,200 r/min, mass about 3200 g. It is open, with a pressed sheet-steel cage.

What is the difference between NU, NJ, NUP, N and NF cylindrical roller bearings?

The prefix states the rib arrangement: NU has two outer-ring ribs and a ribless inner ring (float, no axial load); NJ adds ribs for one-direction location; NUP adds a loose L-ring to locate both directions; N has two inner-ring ribs and a separable outer ring; NF has one rib per ring for one-direction guidance. N2313 is two integral ribs on the inner ring and a ribless separable outer ring — equivalent float behaviour with the separable ring on the housing side.

What do the EA, E and * suffixes mean on NTN cylindrical roller bearings?

EA is NTN's high-capacity design with a pressed sheet-steel cage and optimised roller complement in the same ISO 15 envelope; E marks the high-capacity design at the larger bores; the * symbol printed before the code in the NTN catalogue marks the ULTAGE new-generation specification and is not typed as part of the order number. N2313 is listed among the * ULTAGE-marked executions in 2203E.

Can N2313 take axial load and locate a shaft?

the N design is non-locating like NU but floats with the separable outer ring in the housing. Provide axial location with an adjacent locating bearing (angular-contact, deep-groove or a paired NJ/NUP set).

What do Fw and Ew mean for N2313?

Fw is the inner sub-assembly raceway/roller-set envelope diameter and Ew the outer-ring raceway diameter printed for geometric checks: Fw 83.5 mm, Ew 121.5 mm. The nominal bore/OD remain 65/140 mm; Fw/Ew describe the rolling-contact path, and speeds still run to 4,400 r/min grease / 5,200 r/min oil.
