How the NUP407 model number is decoded
NTN lists NUP407 on the 35×100 mm envelope, 25 mm wide: a line-contact radial bearing with a pressed sheet-steel cage and a grease limiting speed of 6,400 r/min. On the NTN nameplate NUP states which ring carries the ribs, which determines whether NUP407 floats or locates; the numeric remainder is the ISO 15 series and 35 mm bore reference, not a fit or clearance instruction. NTN ships these bearings open with normal (CN) radial clearance and P0 tolerance as standard; precision classes and C3/C4 clearance are separate order suffixes, not part of NUP407. Speed ratio check: limiting 6,400 r/min is .85 of the 7,500 r/min oil value for NUP407; grease-churn heating closes that gap as fill quantity rises. On NUP arrangements confirm which ring is separable before heating: forcing the ribbed ring off over the roller complement damages the cage and rib faces.
Typical equipment & failure modes
Common applications
- material-handling drum and wheel shafts
- papermaking and printing auxiliary drives
- fan and blower rotor positions
- industrial gearbox input and output shafts
Known failure patterns
- inner-ring raceway spalling from overload in the line-contact Hertzian zone
- cage wear accelerated when the EA high-capacity roller complement runs continuously above its thermal balance
- grease starvation and cage drag when relubrication intervals are extended past the grease life
- fretting corrosion on a loose rotating shaft seat
- edge loading from shaft deflection beyond the 3–4 arc-minute alignment limit
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 NUP407.
- Open NUP407 units need application-supplied sealing and a defined lubricant schedule; film thickness is the first failure mode for line contact when viscosity drops at the 35 mm contact.
- Grease limiting speed 6,400 r/min and oil 7,500 r/min are different limits for NUP407: the first is the cage/lubricant mechanical ceiling, the second assumes real oil flow rather than an oil bath.
- Open NUP407 units need application-supplied sealing and a defined lubricant schedule; film thickness is the first failure mode for line contact when viscosity drops at the 35 mm contact.
- Never press either ring through the roller complement when fitting: mounting force goes through the ring faces, or the 100 mm race brinells and releases as vibration within hours.
- The 83.5/69 kN ratings, 8.4 kN Pu and 965 g mass are NTN Ball and Roller Bearings CAT.No.2203E values for NUP407 (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 NUP407?
NUP407 is an NTN NUP single-row cylindrical roller bearing to ISO 15: 35 mm bore, 100 mm OD and 25 mm width (1.378 × 3.937 × 0.984 in). From NTN Ball and Roller Bearings CAT.No.2203E: C 83.5 kN, C0 69 kN, Pu 8.4 kN, grease limiting speed 6,400 r/min, oil 7,500 r/min, mass about 965 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. NUP407 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. NUP407 is supplied in the standard open execution shown in the table.
Can NUP407 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 NUP407?
Fw is the inner sub-assembly raceway/roller-set envelope diameter and Ew the outer-ring raceway diameter printed for geometric checks: Fw 53 mm, Ew 83 mm. The nominal bore/OD remain 35/100 mm; Fw/Ew describe the rolling-contact path, and speeds still run to 6,400 r/min grease / 7,500 r/min oil.
