How the SL182984-TB model number is decoded
envelope 420×560×82 mm with a 70.0 mm radial section; every available circumferential space carries a roller because there is no cage C is 1730 kN and C0 3600 kN; with a C/C0 ratio of 0.48 the 82 mm-wide full complement concentrates on extreme static and steady radial capacity rather than speed the fatigue load limit Cur is 370 kN, the limiting speed 630 r/min and the thermal reference speed 340 r/min — full-complement roller-to-roller contact keeps both speeds well below caged cylindrical bearings of the same size the dynamic rating is 4.12 kN per millimetre of the 420 mm bore and 21.10 kN per millimetre of the 82 mm width, figures that explain the use of this bearing in compact, heavily loaded gearbox positions mass is 56.9 kg (56900 g) (1.24 g per mm² of the 560×82 mm envelope); the stiff, thick rings keep raceway deformation low under peak loads at 420 mm bore this is among the largest catalogue sizes; the 630 r/min limiting speed confirms a slow-speed, extreme-load application such as a slewing or rolling-mill position The dimension-series digits place this bearing in the SL18 section of the HR1 plan, giving the 70.0 mm section height between the 420 mm bore and the 560 mm outside diameter Reading -TB: Schaeffler's enhanced-rib design for full-complement bearings; axial friction torque is reduced while radial ratings stay at 1730 kN C. Typical applications include material handling conveyor pulleys, rolling-mill and steel-industry drives and construction machinery slewing drives, where the 560 mm outside diameter and 1730 kN dynamic rating match the duty. In material handling conveyor pulleys the unit fits a compact 420 mm seat, and in rolling-mill and steel-industry drives the 56.9 kg mass is part of the rotor inertia calculation. Designers also specify it for construction machinery slewing drives, relying on the 82 mm width and the published 3600 kN static rating. 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. C0 is the number that tempts overload in slow machinery, but fatigue life is still governed by the dynamic C rating and lubricant film.
Typical equipment & failure modes
Common applications
- marine and offshore winch arrangements
- crane travelling-wheel mechanisms
- hydraulic pumps and radial piston pumps
- rolling-mill and steel-industry 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
- 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.
- C0 is the number that tempts overload in slow machinery, but fatigue life is still governed by the dynamic C rating and lubricant film.
- The bearings cannot accommodate angular misalignment; check shaft and housing parallelism before blaming the bearing for edge spalling.
Frequently asked questions
What are the dimensions of the SL182984-TB?
The SL182984-TB is a SL1829 single-row full-complement semi-locating cylindrical roller bearing with 560 mm outside diameter, 420 mm bore and 82 mm width, envelope 420×560×82 mm. Mass is 56.9 kg.
What does the SL182984-TB designation mean in the FAG/INA HR1 catalogue?
SL182984-TB identifies this SL1829 single-row full-complement semi-locating cylindrical roller bearing in the Schaeffler HR1 rolling bearings catalogue. The envelope is 420×560×82 mm and the catalogue ratings are C 1730 kN, C0 3600 kN, Cur 370 kN.
What is the load capacity of the SL182984-TB?
The basic dynamic load rating C is 1730 kN and the basic static load rating C0 is 3600 kN; the fatigue load limit Cur is 370 kN.
What is the maximum speed of the SL182984-TB?
The limiting speed is 630 r/min and the thermal reference speed is 340 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 SL182984-TB?
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.
