How the SL024932 model number is decoded

envelope 160×220×60 mm with a 30.0 mm radial section; every available circumferential space carries a roller because there is no cage C is 425 kN and C0 880 kN; with a C/C0 ratio of 0.48 the 60 mm-wide full complement concentrates on extreme static and steady radial capacity rather than speed the fatigue load limit Cur is 112 kN, the limiting speed 1,660 r/min and the thermal reference speed 1,080 r/min — full-complement roller-to-roller contact keeps both speeds well below caged cylindrical bearings of the same size the dynamic rating is 2.66 kN per millimetre of the 160 mm bore and 7.08 kN per millimetre of the 60 mm width, figures that explain the use of this bearing in compact, heavily loaded gearbox positions mass is 6.8 kg (6800 g) (0.52 g per mm² of the 220×60 mm envelope); the stiff, thick rings keep raceway deformation low under peak loads 160 mm bore, 220 mm outside diameter: at this size the 880 kN C0 rating and rigid full-complement pack replace multi-bearing arrangements in compact heavy-duty designs At 160 mm bore and 6.8 kg, the SL0249 is specified in rolling-mill gearboxes, travelling mechanisms and construction machinery where thermal shaft growth must not induce thrust The cageless double pack is speed-limited to 1,660 r/min (reference 1,080 r/min) but accepts purely radial loads with the rigidity required in heavy industrial gearboxes Typical applications include crane travelling-wheel mechanisms, compact slow-speed agitator drives and heavy industrial gearbox shafts, where the 220 mm outside diameter and 425 kN dynamic rating match the duty. In crane travelling-wheel mechanisms the unit fits a compact 160 mm seat, and in compact slow-speed agitator drives the 6.8 kg mass is part of the rotor inertia calculation. Designers also specify it for heavy industrial gearbox shafts, relying on the 60 mm width and the published 880 kN static rating. Use the rib structure correctly: SL18/SL1850 give one-direction axial guidance, SL0149 locates both ways and SL0249 floats — pairing two locating bearings on one shaft binds thermal growth. Relubrication paths matter: specify the annular groove/hole executions where access is poor, because the tightly packed rows trap old grease.

Selection pitfalls — read before you substitute

• Use the rib structure correctly: SL18/SL1850 give one-direction axial guidance, SL0149 locates both ways and SL0249 floats — pairing two locating bearings on one shaft binds thermal growth.
• Relubrication paths matter: specify the annular groove/hole executions where access is poor, because the tightly packed rows trap old grease.
• Press-fit the correct ring: the rotating ring needs interference while the floating ring must slide on its seat to perform the non-locating function.
