How the 22207EMW33 model number is decoded

The NTN order number 22207EMW33 identifies a 35×72×23 mm (1.378 × 2.835 × 0.906 in) spherical roller bearing, cylindrical bore, to the ISO 15 boundary plan. Reading the full code: the number gives the 35×72 mm envelope, EM names the cage/capacity execution, no bore suffix means cylindrical bore for a direct shaft seat, and W33 annular lubrication groove with outer-ring holes completes the order number. The W33 annular lubrication groove with outer-ring holes makes relubrication part of the design: fresh grease reaches the rolling elements through the outer-ring feature rather than relying solely on end-side packing. Equivalent-load planning keeps a radial plus moderate axial combination on 22207EMW33; if the axial component dominates, pair with a thrust bearing rather than running one roller row unloaded. Fillet radii on shaft and housing must clear the ring chamfers of the 23 mm-wide set; use the NTN shoulder/withdrawal-groove table rather than copying a ball-bearing layout.

Typical equipment & failure modes

Common applications

  • industrial gearbox and reducer shafts
  • conveyor pulley and elevator drum shafts
  • stone crusher and screen eccentric shafts
  • papermaking and printing press rolls

Known failure patterns

  • raceway spalling at the roller ends when misalignment or deflection concentrates the line contact
  • machined EM cage wear from inadequate oil film at the cage-guiding surfaces
  • roller-end smearing during skidding starts under light load and high viscosity grease
  • water-induced pitting in washdown or outdoor duty without effective external seals
  • hard-particle indentation through the open arrangement in dusty mining duty

Selection pitfalls — read before you substitute

  • Vibrating-duty 35 mm bearings need the right clearance class and secure fits; verify the k5/m5 seat and relubrication routing rather than assuming the open 22207EMW33 is greased for life.
  • Self-aligning does not mean unlimited misalignment: beyond the catalogue angle the outer ring's spherical travel is exhausted and the 100 kN rating no longer applies.
  • The two roller rows must share load equally — a tilted spacer or unequal abutment on the 23 mm-wide ring loads one row only and shows as asymmetric race polish during inspection.
  • Oil relubrication toward 9,400 r/min needs drain and level design; flooding the 23 mm cavity churns heat through the heavy roller set and cage despite the higher oil speed figure.
  • K and K30 are different tapers — K is 1:12 and K30 is 1:30 on the wide series; an adapter sleeve for one will not mount the other 35 mm bearing, and drive-up procedures differ.
  • The 100/92 kN ratings, 6.11 kN Pu and 442 g mass are NTN Ball and Roller Bearings CAT.No.2203E values for 22207EMW33 (EM machined-brass-cage/W33); another maker's same-envelope part revises internal geometry, so re-verify ratings and cage before substitution on vibrating or rated drives.

Frequently asked questions

What are the dimensions and catalogue data of 22207EMW33?

22207EMW33 is an NTN double-row spherical roller bearing to ISO 15: 35 mm bore, 72 mm OD and 23 mm width (1.378 × 2.835 × 0.906 in). From NTN Ball and Roller Bearings CAT.No.2203E: C 100 kN, C0 92 kN, Pu 6.11 kN, grease limiting speed 7,500 r/min, oil 9,400 r/min, mass about 442 g. It is open, with one-piece machined brass cage (EM high-capacity design).

What is the difference between the K/K30 tapered bore and the cylindrical bore versions?

22207EMW33 has a cylindrical bore and mounts directly on a machined shaft seat. Its tapered-bore counterpart is 22207EMKW33 (K = 1:12, or K30 = 1:30 on the wide series), intended for adapter/withdrawal-sleeve mounting.

What do EA and EM mean on NTN spherical roller bearings?

EA is the NTN standard-capacity/high-capacity execution with a pressed sheet-steel window cage; EM is the high-capacity execution with a one-piece machined brass cage. Both use the optimised symmetric-roller design, but cage identity changes mass, speed behaviour and suitability for duties like vibrating screens, so they are separate order numbers. 22207EMW33 is the EM machined-brass-cage execution, listed with the * ULTAGE new-generation mark.

What do D1 and W33 mean on 22207EMW33?

W33 denotes the annular lubrication groove with holes in the outer ring: the housing grease port feeds the groove and both roller rows directly. On NTN executions the same feature is spelled D1 in the NTN suffix language; 22207EMW33 carries W33.

How much misalignment and axial load can 22207EMW33 take?

The sphered outer raceway compensates static and dynamic misalignment in the order of 1–2° (verify the exact 2203E figure for the 22200 series); beyond that, load concentrates on one roller row. Load is predominantly radial with a moderate axial share in either direction — 100 kN C / 92 kN C0 — but sustained pure axial load is not recommended because it unloads one row.
