How the NJ2219 model number is decoded

For pure radial duty on a 95 mm shaft NTN supplies NJ2219: two integral ribs on the inner ring and one rib on the outer ring; the open execution is rated 3,600 r/min on grease and 4,300 r/min on oil. Numbering ties NJ2219 to its envelope: type code NJ, series NJ2200, 95 mm bore; the 170×43 mm outline therefore swaps dimensionally with other ISO 15 bearings of the same code, though rib arrangements differ by prefix. The separable ring comes off without removing the roller assembly from the other ring, which eases inspection and lets the non-locating arrangement accommodate thermal shaft growth. Selection arithmetic: Pu 33.5 kN is the fatigue load limit feeding the adjusted-life equation, and the C0/C ratio of 1.16 (298/256 kN) shows the high-static-capacity proportioning of this 95 mm bore. On NJ arrangements confirm which ring is separable before heating: forcing the ribbed ring off over the roller complement damages the cage and rib faces.

Typical equipment & failure modes

Common applications

  • marine gearbox and deck-machinery shafts
  • large electric-motor and generator rotors
  • cement and mining conveyor drive pulleys
  • heavy industrial gearbox and reducer shafts

Known failure patterns

  • roller smearing (microwelding) at start-up before the oil film builds under insufficient radial load
  • pressed-steel cage pocket wear when rollers skid at light load or too-thin lubricant
  • roller-end and raceway scoring from inadequate oil flow under heavy radial load
  • false brinelling on standby machines exposed to external vibration
  • false brinelling on standby machines exposed to external vibration

Selection pitfalls — read before you substitute

  • Induction-heat the 95 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 170 mm raceway.
  • Open NJ2219 units need application-supplied sealing and a defined lubricant schedule; film thickness is the first failure mode for line contact when viscosity drops at the 95 mm contact.
  • Never press either ring through the roller complement when fitting: mounting force goes through the ring faces, or the 170 mm race brinells and releases as vibration within hours.
  • The 43 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 95 mm inner ring.
  • The EA high-capacity roller complement changes the load figure versus the basic execution of the same number; the 256/298 kN pair here belongs to NJ2219 as printed, not to the bare size.
  • The 256/298 kN ratings, 33.5 kN Pu and 3710 g mass are NTN Ball and Roller Bearings CAT.No.2203E values for NJ2219 (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 NJ2219?

NJ2219 is an NTN NJ single-row cylindrical roller bearing to ISO 15: 95 mm bore, 170 mm OD and 43 mm width (3.74 × 6.693 × 1.693 in). From NTN Ball and Roller Bearings CAT.No.2203E: C 256 kN, C0 298 kN, Pu 33.5 kN, grease limiting speed 3,600 r/min, oil 4,300 r/min, mass about 3710 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. NJ2219 is two integral ribs on the inner ring and one rib on the outer ring — it locates the shaft in one axial direction.

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. NJ2219 is supplied in the standard open execution shown in the table.

Can NJ2219 take axial load and locate a shaft?

the NJ design accepts axial load in one direction and provides one-way shaft location. For two-direction location use an NUP execution or an NJ pair with loose rib rings.

What do Fw and Ew mean for NJ2219?

Fw is the inner sub-assembly raceway/roller-set envelope diameter and Ew the outer-ring raceway diameter printed for geometric checks: Fw 113.5 mm, Ew 151.5 mm. The nominal bore/OD remain 95/170 mm; Fw/Ew describe the rolling-contact path, and speeds still run to 3,600 r/min grease / 4,300 r/min oil.
