How the NUP313 model number is decoded
NUP313 belongs to the NTN cylindrical roller range in NTN Ball and Roller Bearings CAT.No.2203E, under the ＊ ULTAGE new-generation specification: line-contact rollers between ground raceways for a 150 kN dynamic rating in the 65 mm bore. Numbering ties NUP313 to its envelope: type code NUP, series NUP300, 65 mm bore; the 140×33 mm outline therefore swaps dimensionally with other ISO 15 bearings of the same code, though rib arrangements differ by prefix. the bare number is the standard-capacity open execution with the normal pressed-steel cage; the ＊ symbol printed before the number in 2203E marks the ULTAGE new-generation specification — upgraded material/geometry and longer rating life, not part of the order code; quote the full NUP313 designation when purchasing. With the inner ring rotating, catalogue practice is a k5/m5 shaft seat and an H7/H6 housing; the outer ring must remain free to creep slightly axially in non-locating NUP arrangements. Heat the inner ring to max 120 °C for the 65 mm interference fit and support the ring face square during fitting; cocking over a keyway brinells the raceway before first rotation.
Typical equipment & failure modes
Common applications
- heavy industrial gearbox and reducer shafts
- large pump, turbine and compressor rotors
- rolling-mill auxiliary drive shafts
- crusher and vibrating-screen drive shafts
Known failure patterns
- roller smearing (microwelding) at start-up before the oil film builds under insufficient radial load
- cage distortion after a mounting blow carried through the roller set
- roller-end and raceway scoring from inadequate oil flow under heavy radial load
- fretting corrosion on a loose rotating shaft seat
- electrical pitting on VFD-driven motor shafts without grounding protection
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.
- The 37.5 mm section at 65 mm bore leaves a narrow oil path; with the standard cage the relubrication groove and oil-level design must keep grease from churning in the 33 mm-wide cavity.
- The 33 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.
- Minimum radial load is frequently missed in oversized motor and fan selections: an underloaded NUP313 skids at 5,100 r/min and fails by smearing long before L10 fatigue.
- The 33 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 150/139 kN ratings, 16.8 kN Pu and 2180 g mass are NTN Ball and Roller Bearings CAT.No.2203E values for NUP313 (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 NUP313?
NUP313 is an NTN NUP single-row cylindrical roller bearing to ISO 15: 65 mm bore, 140 mm OD and 33 mm width (2.559 × 5.512 × 1.299 in). From NTN Ball and Roller Bearings CAT.No.2203E: C 150 kN, C0 139 kN, Pu 16.8 kN, grease limiting speed 5,100 r/min, oil 6,000 r/min, mass about 2180 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. NUP313 is the NJ rib arrangement plus a loose L-shaped rib ring on the inner ring — it locates the shaft in both axial directions.
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. NUP313 is listed among the ＊ ULTAGE-marked executions in 2203E.
Can NUP313 take axial load and locate a shaft?
the NUP design provides two-direction axial location via its loose rib ring, for light/moderate thrust guidance. The loose rib ring still only suits light/short-duration axial guidance; heavy thrust belongs to a dedicated thrust bearing.
What do Fw and Ew mean for NUP313?
Fw is the inner sub-assembly raceway/roller-set envelope diameter and Ew the outer-ring raceway diameter printed for geometric checks: Fw 83.5 mm, Ew 121.5 mm. The nominal bore/OD remain 65/140 mm; Fw/Ew describe the rolling-contact path, and speeds still run to 5,100 r/min grease / 6,000 r/min oil.
