How the NU1007 model number is decoded
NU1007 is an NTN NU cylindrical roller bearing: two integral ribs on the outer ring and a ribless, separable inner ring — a non-locating bearing that lets the shaft float axially, inside the 35×62×14 mm ISO 15 envelope. Reading the code: NU for the non-locating separable-inner-ring type, then the ISO 15 diameter/width series and the bore code — ×5 = 35 mm (00–03 use the 10/12/15/17 exception table). Minimum radial load matters: an unloaded NU1007 at high speed skids its rollers and smears the raceway; spring preload or the rotor weight typically covers the requirement in motors and pumps. Speed ratio check: limiting 12,000 r/min is .80 of the 15,000 r/min oil value for NU1007; grease-churn heating closes that gap as fill quantity rises. After mounting verify the outer ring slides axially by hand at ambient temperature; a stuck float ring in a NU1007 non-locating position preloads the bearing when the shaft grows.
Typical equipment & failure modes
Common applications
- papermaking and printing auxiliary drives
- fan and blower rotor positions
- industrial gearbox input and output shafts
- medium electric-motor and generator 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
- rolling-contact fatigue after the catalogue L10 life is exceeded
- false brinelling on standby machines exposed to external vibration
Selection pitfalls — read before you substitute
- On this 35 mm bore, shaft thermal growth can preload the inner ring if the fit is too tight; verify residual interference at temperature and confirm the float ring still slides after mounting NU1007.
- Never press either ring through the roller complement when fitting: mounting force goes through the ring faces, or the 62 mm race brinells and releases as vibration within hours.
- Minimum radial load is frequently missed in oversized motor and fan selections: an underloaded NU1007 skids at 12,000 r/min and fails by smearing long before L10 fatigue.
- Grease limiting speed 12,000 r/min and oil 15,000 r/min are different limits for NU1007: the first is the cage/lubricant mechanical ceiling, the second assumes real oil flow rather than an oil bath.
- Do not replace NU1007 with a deep-groove ball bearing on rating alone: line contact gives 25.1 kN radial capacity but the bearing cannot carry the thrust duty a ball bearing can and misalignment tolerance is only 3–4 arc-minutes.
- The 25.1/23.2 kN ratings, 2.82 kN Pu and 176 g mass are NTN Ball and Roller Bearings CAT.No.2203E values for NU1007 (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 NU1007?
NU1007 is an NTN NU single-row cylindrical roller bearing to ISO 15: 35 mm bore, 62 mm OD and 14 mm width (1.378 × 2.441 × 0.551 in). From NTN Ball and Roller Bearings CAT.No.2203E: C 25.1 kN, C0 23.2 kN, Pu 2.82 kN, grease limiting speed 12,000 r/min, oil 15,000 r/min, mass about 176 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. NU1007 is two integral ribs on the outer ring and a ribless, separable inner ring — a non-locating bearing that lets the shaft float axially.
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. NU1007 is supplied in the standard open execution shown in the table.
Can NU1007 take axial load and locate a shaft?
the NU design carries no axial load and floats axially on both sides. 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 NU1007?
Fw is the inner sub-assembly raceway/roller-set envelope diameter and Ew the outer-ring raceway diameter printed for geometric checks: Fw 42 mm, Ew 55 mm. The nominal bore/OD remain 35/62 mm; Fw/Ew describe the rolling-contact path, and speeds still run to 12,000 r/min grease / 15,000 r/min oil.
