How the NJ314EA model number is decoded
NJ314EA is an NTN NJ cylindrical roller bearing: two integral ribs on the inner ring and one rib on the outer ring — it locates the shaft in one axial direction, inside the 70×150×35 mm ISO 15 envelope. Numbering ties NJ314EA to its envelope: type code NJ, series NJ300, 70 mm bore; the 150×35 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. The 70 mm (2.756 in) bore and 150 mm (5.906 in) OD are ISO 15 boundary values; fillet and shoulder dimensions must still come from the NTN mounting table for the 35 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 NJ314EA.
Typical equipment & failure modes
Common applications
- large pump, turbine and compressor rotors
- rolling-mill auxiliary drive shafts
- crusher and vibrating-screen drive shafts
- marine gearbox and deck-machinery shafts
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
- false brinelling on standby machines exposed to external vibration
- brinelling from static overload or impact during handling
Selection pitfalls — read before you substitute
- Induction-heat the 70 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 150 mm raceway.
- If the shaft must be located both ways, do not use NJ314EA alone: pair it with a locating bearing or specify the NUP execution with the matching loose rib ring from the 2203E table.
- Wide (22/23) and light (10/49) executions at 70 mm bore share bore but not OD/width; check the full NJ300 series code before substituting, because housing and shoulder geometry will not interchange.
- If the shaft must be located both ways, do not use NJ314EA alone: pair it with a locating bearing or specify the NUP execution with the matching loose rib ring from the 2203E table.
- The EA high-capacity roller complement changes the load figure versus the basic execution of the same number; the 242/222 kN pair here belongs to NJ314EA as printed, not to the bare size.
- The 242/222 kN ratings, 26.2 kN Pu and 2750 g mass are NTN Ball and Roller Bearings CAT.No.2203E values for NJ314EA (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 NJ314EA?
NJ314EA is an NTN NJ single-row cylindrical roller bearing to ISO 15: 70 mm bore, 150 mm OD and 35 mm width (2.756 × 5.906 × 1.378 in). From NTN Ball and Roller Bearings CAT.No.2203E: C 242 kN, C0 222 kN, Pu 26.2 kN, grease limiting speed 4,200 r/min, oil 6,000 r/min, mass about 2750 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. NJ314EA 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 NJ314EA 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 NJ314EA?
Fw is the inner sub-assembly raceway/roller-set envelope diameter and Ew the outer-ring raceway diameter printed for geometric checks: Fw 89 mm, Ew 133 mm. The nominal bore/OD remain 70/150 mm; Fw/Ew describe the rolling-contact path, and speeds still run to 4,200 r/min grease / 6,000 r/min oil.
