How the NJ2313EA model number is decoded
The NTN order number NJ2313EA denotes a 65×140×48 mm (2.559 × 5.512 × 1.89 in) cylindrical roller bearing in the NJ2300 family, the EA high-capacity pressed sheet-steel cage. Digit by digit, NJ2313EA reads as NJ (inner ring two ribs + one outer rib), 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. 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. The 65 mm (2.559 in) bore and 140 mm (5.512 in) OD are ISO 15 boundary values; fillet and shoulder dimensions must still come from the NTN mounting table for the 48 mm-wide ring. Mount the separable inner ring + roller assembly on the shaft first and slide the outer ring into the housing; never press the outer ring through the rollers of NJ2313EA.
Typical equipment & failure modes
Common applications
- large electric-motor and generator rotors
- cement and mining conveyor drive pulleys
- heavy industrial gearbox and reducer shafts
- large pump, turbine and compressor rotors
Known failure patterns
- inner-ring raceway spalling from overload in the line-contact Hertzian zone
- 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
- fretting corrosion on a loose rotating shaft seat
- hard-particle indentation of raceways in unfiltered oil or open arrangements
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.
- If the shaft must be located both ways, do not use NJ2313EA alone: pair it with a locating bearing or specify the NUP execution with the matching loose rib ring from the 2203E table.
- 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.
- The NJ rib arrangement is not interchangeable with another prefix on the same 65 mm seat: inner ring two ribs + one outer rib. Swapping NU for NJ changes axial location behaviour even though the 140×48 mm envelope matches.
- The EA high-capacity roller complement changes the load figure versus the basic execution of the same number; the 293/287 kN pair here belongs to NJ2313EA as printed, not to the bare size.
- The 293/287 kN ratings, 34.5 kN Pu and 3250 g mass are NTN Ball and Roller Bearings CAT.No.2203E values for NJ2313EA (EA pressed-steel-cage 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 NJ2313EA?
NJ2313EA is an NTN NJ 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 293 kN, C0 287 kN, Pu 34.5 kN, grease limiting speed 4,100 r/min, oil 5,800 r/min, mass about 3250 g. It is open, with the EA high-capacity 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. NJ2313EA 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. This page's bearing carries the EA pressed-steel-cage execution.
Can NJ2313EA 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 NJ2313EA?
Fw is the inner sub-assembly raceway/roller-set envelope diameter and Ew the outer-ring raceway diameter printed for geometric checks: Fw 82.5 mm, Ew 124.5 mm. The nominal bore/OD remain 65/140 mm; Fw/Ew describe the rolling-contact path, and speeds still run to 4,100 r/min grease / 5,800 r/min oil.
