How the SL182996-TB model number is decoded

envelope 480×650×100 mm with a 85.0 mm radial section; every available circumferential space carries a roller because there is no cage C is 2390 kN and C0 4800 kN; with a C/C0 ratio of 0.50 the 100 mm-wide full complement concentrates on extreme static and steady radial capacity rather than speed the fatigue load limit Cur is 480 kN, the limiting speed 530 r/min and the thermal reference speed 280 r/min — full-complement roller-to-roller contact keeps both speeds well below caged cylindrical bearings of the same size the dynamic rating is 4.98 kN per millimetre of the 480 mm bore and 23.90 kN per millimetre of the 100 mm width, figures that explain the use of this bearing in compact, heavily loaded gearbox positions mass is 94.7 kg (94700 g) (1.46 g per mm² of the 650×100 mm envelope); the stiff, thick rings keep raceway deformation low under peak loads the 480 mm bore puts this execution at the top of the HR1 range — the 650 mm outside diameter, 100 mm width and 94.7 kg mass are built for primary-industry load cases 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 The dimension-series digits place this bearing in the SL18 section of the HR1 plan, giving the 85.0 mm section height between the 480 mm bore and the 650 mm outside diameter The -TB suffix denotes the increased axial-load design: profiled roller ends and optimised rib contact geometry lower edge stress and friction at the guide ribs. Typical applications include rolling-mill and steel-industry drives, hydraulic pumps and radial piston pumps and material handling conveyor pulleys, where the 650 mm outside diameter and 2390 kN dynamic rating match the duty. In rolling-mill and steel-industry drives the unit fits a compact 480 mm seat, and in hydraulic pumps and radial piston pumps the 94.7 kg mass is part of the rotor inertia calculation. Designers also specify it for material handling conveyor pulleys, relying on the 100 mm width and the published 4800 kN static rating. There is no cage: do not apply caged-bearing speed rules — the printed limiting speed is a hard kinematic ceiling set by roller-to-roller contact. 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.

Selection pitfalls — read before you substitute

• There is no cage: do not apply caged-bearing speed rules — the printed limiting speed is a hard kinematic ceiling set by roller-to-roller contact.
• 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.
