How the SL183064-TB model number is decoded

envelope 320×480×121 mm with a 80.0 mm radial section; every available circumferential space carries a roller because there is no cage C is 2080 kN and C0 3450 kN; with a C/C0 ratio of 0.60 the 121 mm-wide full complement concentrates on extreme static and steady radial capacity rather than speed the fatigue load limit Cur is 350 kN, the limiting speed 770 r/min and the thermal reference speed 480 r/min — full-complement roller-to-roller contact keeps both speeds well below caged cylindrical bearings of the same size the dynamic rating is 6.50 kN per millimetre of the 320 mm bore and 17.19 kN per millimetre of the 121 mm width, figures that explain the use of this bearing in compact, heavily loaded gearbox positions mass is 71.7 kg (71700 g) (1.23 g per mm² of the 480×121 mm envelope); the stiff, thick rings keep raceway deformation low under peak loads the 320 mm bore puts this execution at the top of the HR1 range — the 480 mm outside diameter, 121 mm width and 71.7 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 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 TB-design bearings use revised roller-end curvature to protect the ribs under combined load — relevant at 320 mm bore where the semi-locating function carries real thrust. Typical applications include rolling-mill and steel-industry drives, hydraulic pumps and radial piston pumps and material handling conveyor pulleys, where the 480 mm outside diameter and 2080 kN dynamic rating match the duty. In rolling-mill and steel-industry drives the unit fits a compact 320 mm seat, and in hydraulic pumps and radial piston pumps the 71.7 kg mass is part of the rotor inertia calculation. Designers also specify it for material handling conveyor pulleys, relying on the 121 mm width and the published 3450 kN static rating. 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.

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

  • 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.
  • 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.

Frequently asked questions

What are the dimensions of the SL183064-TB?

The SL183064-TB is a SL1830 single-row full-complement semi-locating cylindrical roller bearing with 480 mm outside diameter, 320 mm bore and 121 mm width, envelope 320×480×121 mm. Mass is 71.7 kg.

What does the SL183064-TB designation mean in the FAG/INA HR1 catalogue?

SL183064-TB identifies this SL1830 single-row full-complement semi-locating cylindrical roller bearing in the Schaeffler HR1 rolling bearings catalogue. The envelope is 320×480×121 mm and the catalogue ratings are C 2080 kN, C0 3450 kN, Cur 350 kN.

What is the load capacity of the SL183064-TB?

The basic dynamic load rating C is 2080 kN and the basic static load rating C0 is 3450 kN; the fatigue load limit Cur is 350 kN.

What is the maximum speed of the SL183064-TB?

The limiting speed is 770 r/min and the thermal reference speed is 480 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 SL183064-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.
