How the SL183016 model number is decoded

envelope 80×125×34 mm with a 22.5 mm radial section; every available circumferential space carries a roller because there is no cage C is 170 kN and C0 220 kN; with a C/C0 ratio of 0.77 the 34 mm-wide full complement concentrates on extreme static and steady radial capacity rather than speed the fatigue load limit Cur is 33.5 kN, the limiting speed 3,200 r/min and the thermal reference speed 2,470 r/min — full-complement roller-to-roller contact keeps both speeds well below caged cylindrical bearings of the same size the dynamic rating is 2.13 kN per millimetre of the 80 mm bore and 5.00 kN per millimetre of the 34 mm width, figures that explain the use of this bearing in compact, heavily loaded gearbox positions mass is 1.43 kg (1430 g) (0.34 g per mm² of the 125×34 mm envelope); the stiff, thick rings keep raceway deformation low under peak loads the 80 mm bore belongs to the large band, where HR1 full-complement and track-roller designs deliver their highest kilonewton ratings in slow, heavily loaded machinery SL18 bearings are separable for mounting: the inner ring with the self-retained roller set can be fitted separately from the plain-bored outer ring, which simplifies interference-fit assembly In the 125 mm envelope the cageless pack raises C0 to 220 kN; the trade is the 3,200 r/min limiting speed, set by roller-to-roller sliding rather than by a cage Typical applications include rolling-mill and steel-industry drives, hydraulic pumps and radial piston pumps and material handling conveyor pulleys, where the 125 mm outside diameter and 170 kN dynamic rating match the duty. In rolling-mill and steel-industry drives the unit fits a compact 80 mm seat, and in hydraulic pumps and radial piston pumps the 1.43 kg mass is part of the rotor inertia calculation. Designers also specify it for material handling conveyor pulleys, relying on the 34 mm width and the published 220 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. 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.

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.
• 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.
