How the SL182240 model number is decoded

envelope 200×360×98 mm with a 80.0 mm radial section; every available circumferential space carries a roller because there is no cage C is 1410 kN and C0 2010 kN; with a C/C0 ratio of 0.70 the 98 mm-wide full complement concentrates on extreme static and steady radial capacity rather than speed the fatigue load limit Cur is 245 kN, the limiting speed 1,150 r/min and the thermal reference speed 770 r/min — full-complement roller-to-roller contact keeps both speeds well below caged cylindrical bearings of the same size the dynamic rating is 7.05 kN per millimetre of the 200 mm bore and 14.39 kN per millimetre of the 98 mm width, figures that explain the use of this bearing in compact, heavily loaded gearbox positions mass is 43.12 kg (43120 g) (1.22 g per mm² of the 360×98 mm envelope); the stiff, thick rings keep raceway deformation low under peak loads the 200 mm bore puts this execution at the top of the HR1 range — the 360 mm outside diameter, 98 mm width and 43.12 kg mass are built for primary-industry load cases In the 360 mm envelope the cageless pack raises C0 to 2010 kN; the trade is the 1,150 r/min limiting speed, set by roller-to-roller sliding rather than by a cage The semi-locating function means this bearing locates the shaft in one axial direction and floats in the other — useful in two-bearing shafts where one position is fixed and the other absorbs expansion Typical applications include rope drums and winch drums, vibrating and oscillating machinery and marine and offshore winch arrangements, where the 360 mm outside diameter and 1410 kN dynamic rating match the duty. In rope drums and winch drums the unit fits a compact 200 mm seat, and in vibrating and oscillating machinery the 43.12 kg mass is part of the rotor inertia calculation. Designers also specify it for marine and offshore winch arrangements, relying on the 98 mm width and the published 2010 kN static rating. The split outer ring of SL0149 is joined by retaining rings for handling only; never use those rings as a thrust face in the design. 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.

Typical equipment & failure modes

Common applications

  • construction machinery slewing drives
  • marine and offshore winch arrangements
  • planetary gear bearing positions
  • compact slow-speed agitator drives

Known failure patterns

  • raceway pitting from overloaded slow-speed positions where the cageless rollers repeatedly stress one contact band
  • rib and roller-end scoring when applied axial thrust exceeds the semi-locating capacity
  • roller smearing from roller-to-roller sliding at speeds above the limiting value
  • edge loading and premature spalling caused by undetected shaft/housing misalignment (full-complement rows cannot self-align)
  • brinelling of the raceways from static shock during mounting or transport of the heavy rotor
  • lubricant starvation in the tightly packed roller set, especially in the double-row executions
  • freting and creep on a loose ring seat under a rotating load
  • contamination wear in open gearbox positions with damaged seals or breathers
  • false brinelling from micro-movement while the shaft is stationary under vibration

Selection pitfalls — read before you substitute

  • The split outer ring of SL0149 is joined by retaining rings for handling only; never use those rings as a thrust face in the design.
  • 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.
  • C0 is the number that tempts overload in slow machinery, but fatigue life is still governed by the dynamic C rating and lubricant film.

Frequently asked questions

What are the dimensions of the SL182240?

The SL182240 is a SL1822 single-row full-complement semi-locating cylindrical roller bearing with 360 mm outside diameter, 200 mm bore and 98 mm width, envelope 200×360×98 mm. Mass is 43.12 kg.

What does the SL182240 designation mean in the FAG/INA HR1 catalogue?

SL182240 identifies this SL1822 single-row full-complement semi-locating cylindrical roller bearing in the Schaeffler HR1 rolling bearings catalogue. The envelope is 200×360×98 mm and the catalogue ratings are C 1410 kN, C0 2010 kN, Cur 245 kN.

What is the load capacity of the SL182240?

The basic dynamic load rating C is 1410 kN and the basic static load rating C0 is 2010 kN; the fatigue load limit Cur is 245 kN.

What is the maximum speed of the SL182240?

The limiting speed is 1,150 r/min and the thermal reference speed is 770 r/min. In the Schaeffler catalogue the reference speed is the thermally permissible running speed under defined load; the lower of the two values governs each application.

What is the locating function of the SL182240?

This is a semi-locating bearing: one rib on the outer ring and two on the inner ring guide the shaft axially in one direction, while the other direction is free for thermal expansion.
