How the SL183012-XL model number is decoded

envelope 60×95×26 mm with a 17.5 mm radial section; every available circumferential space carries a roller because there is no cage C is 123 kN and C0 143 kN; with a C/C0 ratio of 0.86 the 26 mm-wide full complement concentrates on extreme static and steady radial capacity rather than speed the fatigue load limit Cur is 24.1 kN, the limiting speed 4,350 r/min and the thermal reference speed 3,000 r/min — full-complement roller-to-roller contact keeps both speeds well below caged cylindrical bearings of the same size the dynamic rating is 2.05 kN per millimetre of the 60 mm bore and 4.73 kN per millimetre of the 26 mm width, figures that explain the use of this bearing in compact, heavily loaded gearbox positions mass is 690 g (0.28 g per mm² of the 95×26 mm envelope); the stiff, thick rings keep raceway deformation low under peak loads at 60 mm bore this is a mainstream industrial size — conveyor drives, winches and medium gearboxes use the 26 mm width as a standard mounting space High radial rigidity at 123 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 SL183012-XL is a single-row full-complement cylindrical roller bearing: no cage is fitted, so the maximum number of rollers runs between the rings, and the rollers guide themselves on the two inner-ring ribs X-life status (-XL) indicates the current Schaeffler premium execution at 60 mm bore; the 143 kN C0 rating reflects the improved rolling-contact geometry. Typical applications include compact slow-speed agitator drives, planetary gear bearing positions and crane travelling-wheel mechanisms, where the 95 mm outside diameter and 123 kN dynamic rating match the duty. In compact slow-speed agitator drives the unit fits a compact 60 mm seat, and in planetary gear bearing positions the 690 g mass suits the compact, space-optimised housing. Designers also specify it for crane travelling-wheel mechanisms, relying on the 26 mm width and the published 143 kN static rating. C0 is the number that tempts overload in slow machinery, but fatigue life is still governed by the dynamic C rating and lubricant film. 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

• C0 is the number that tempts overload in slow machinery, but fatigue life is still governed by the dynamic C rating and lubricant film.
• Relubrication paths matter: specify the annular groove/hole executions where access is poor, because the tightly packed rows trap old grease.
• 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.
