How the NN3092 model number is decoded
In NTN Ball and Roller Bearings CAT.No.2203E, NN3092 appears as a 460 mm bore single-row cylindrical roller bearing (2830 kN C / 5350 kN C0) with a machined or stamped steel cage per the precision execution, listed to the ISO 15 boundary plan. On the NTN nameplate NN states which ring carries the ribs, which determines whether NN3092 floats or locates; the numeric remainder is the ISO 15 series and 460 mm bore reference, not a fit or clearance instruction. Line contact between rollers and raceways gives NN3092 high radial capacity but no tolerance for misalignment: beyond roughly 3–4 arc-minutes the roller ends edge-load and fatigue accelerates. The 460 mm (18.11 in) bore and 680 mm (26.772 in) OD are ISO 15 boundary values; fillet and shoulder dimensions must still come from the NTN mounting table for the 163 mm-wide ring. After mounting verify the outer ring slides axially by hand at ambient temperature; a stuck float ring in a NN3092 non-locating position preloads the bearing when the shaft grows.
Typical equipment & failure modes
Common applications
- high-rpm motorised grinding and milling spindles
- CNC lathe and machining-centre spindle radial sets
- precision rotary-table and dividing-head bearings
- high-speed turbine and turbo-blower rotor supports
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
- grease starvation and cage drag when relubrication intervals are extended past the grease life
- brinelling from static overload or impact during handling
- edge loading from shaft deflection beyond the 3–4 arc-minute alignment limit
Selection pitfalls — read before you substitute
- At 460 mm bore, oil-lubricated arrangements toward 890 r/min need positive flow and drain design; the 202000 g NN3092 ring stores enough heat that grease-only duty needs a careful relubrication calculation.
- Grease limiting speed 750 r/min and oil 890 r/min are different limits for NN3092: the first is the cage/lubricant mechanical ceiling, the second assumes real oil flow rather than an oil bath.
- The EA high-capacity roller complement changes the load figure versus the basic execution of the same number; the 2830/5350 kN pair here belongs to NN3092 as printed, not to the bare size.
- Wide (22/23) and light (10/49) executions at 460 mm bore share bore but not OD/width; check the full NN3000 series code before substituting, because housing and shoulder geometry will not interchange.
- Wide (22/23) and light (10/49) executions at 460 mm bore share bore but not OD/width; check the full NN3000 series code before substituting, because housing and shoulder geometry will not interchange.
- The 2830/5350 kN ratings, 385 kN Pu and 202000 g mass are NTN Ball and Roller Bearings CAT.No.2203E values for NN3092 (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 NN3092?
NN3092 is an NTN NN double-row precision cylindrical roller bearing to ISO 15: 460 mm bore, 680 mm OD and 163 mm width (18.11 × 26.772 × 6.417 in). From NTN Ball and Roller Bearings CAT.No.2203E: C 2830 kN, C0 5350 kN, Pu 385 kN, grease limiting speed 750 r/min, oil 890 r/min, mass about 202000 g. It is open, with a machined or stamped steel cage per the precision execution.
What is the difference between NU, NJ, NUP, N and NF cylindrical roller bearings?
NN and NNU are double-row precision designs rather than single-row rib variants: NN has a ribbed inner ring and separable outer ring, NNU the reverse; both give high radial stiffness for spindles and are commonly ordered with P5/P4 precision and a K 1:12 tapered bore for preload setting. NN3092 is the NN execution.
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. NN3092 is supplied in the standard open execution shown in the table.
What does the K tapered bore mean on a precision NN bearing like NN3092?
NN3092 has a cylindrical bore and mounts on a plain machined shaft seat; a K execution (1:12 taper) exists in the NN3000 series when preload must be set by drive-up on a tapered seat.
What speeds and lubrication apply to NN3092?
NTN rates NN3092 at 750 r/min with grease and 890 r/min with oil. The grease figure is the cage/film mechanical ceiling; the oil figure assumes circulating or carefully supplied oil that removes heat from the line-contact zone.
