How the SL183005-XL model number is decoded

envelope 25×47×16 mm with a 11.0 mm radial section; every available circumferential space carries a roller because there is no cage C is 35 kN and C0 32 kN; with a C/C0 ratio of 1.09 the 16 mm-wide full complement concentrates on extreme static and steady radial capacity rather than speed the fatigue load limit Cur is 5.6 kN, the limiting speed 9,500 r/min and the thermal reference speed 6,000 r/min — full-complement roller-to-roller contact keeps both speeds well below caged cylindrical bearings of the same size the dynamic rating is 1.40 kN per millimetre of the 25 mm bore and 2.19 kN per millimetre of the 16 mm width, figures that explain the use of this bearing in compact, heavily loaded gearbox positions mass is 120 g (0.16 g per mm² of the 47×16 mm envelope); the stiff, thick rings keep raceway deformation low under peak loads at 25 mm bore this size balances the 47 mm outside diameter against machineability of the adjacent parts — the most frequently specified band in the HR1 range High radial rigidity at 35 kN C is the point of this design: rib-guided rollers in a cageless pack resist deflection in planetary gears, rope drums and vibrating machinery X-life status (-XL) indicates the current Schaeffler premium execution at 25 mm bore; the 32 kN C0 rating reflects the improved rolling-contact geometry. Typical applications include material handling conveyor pulleys, rolling-mill and steel-industry drives and construction machinery slewing drives, where the 47 mm outside diameter and 35 kN dynamic rating match the duty. In material handling conveyor pulleys the unit fits a compact 25 mm seat, and in rolling-mill and steel-industry drives the 120 g mass suits the compact, space-optimised housing. Designers also specify it for construction machinery slewing drives, relying on the 16 mm width and the published 32 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. Relubrication paths matter: specify the annular groove/hole executions where access is poor, because the tightly packed rows trap old grease.

Typical equipment & failure modes

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.
• Relubrication paths matter: specify the annular groove/hole executions where access is poor, because the tightly packed rows trap old grease.
• 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.
