How the 22240EMKD1 model number is decoded

22240EMKD1 belongs to the 22200 series of NTN spherical rollers and carries the * ULTAGE new-generation mark in the 2203E table: self-aligning, high radial capacity, moderate axial load in either direction. On the NTN nameplate the suffix cluster after the size reads in order: cage design (EM), bore (K), lubrication feature (D1); 22240EMKD1 is assembled exactly in that order. The sphered outer raceway lets the inner-ring assembly pivot, accommodating shaft deflection and housing misalignment (around 1–2° for this class; use the 2203E value for the exact series) without edge loading the rollers. With about 9.1 kN of C per millimetre of the 200 mm bore, 22240EMKD1 screens interchange candidates quickly — then verify cage (EA/EM), bore (K/K30) and lubrication feature (D1/W33) suffixes. Check the self-aligning movement after fitting: the housing should pivot freely around the sphered outer raceway; a pinched outer ring removes the alignment capacity the bearing was selected for.

Typical equipment & failure modes

Common applications

  • cement-rotary-kiln support and trunnion rolls
  • large SAG/ball-mill trunnion and pinion shafts
  • heavy vibrating screens and grizzly feeders
  • offshore and marine propulsion shaftlines

Known failure patterns

  • lubricant starvation at the centre rib area when the D1/W33 groove is not connected to a relubrication supply
  • cage damage when a mounting force is applied through the roller set instead of the ring face
  • roller-end smearing during skidding starts under light load and high viscosity grease
  • hard-particle indentation through the open arrangement in dusty mining duty
  • fretting corrosion between adapter sleeve and tapered bore when the drive-up is insufficient

Selection pitfalls — read before you substitute

  • At 200 mm bore 22240EMKD1 is normally mounted on adapter/withdrawal sleeves with hydraulic assistance; follow the NTN drive-up angle or oil-injection procedure — manual nut tightening cannot set the multi-tonne seating correctly.
  • The 1:12 tapered bore is the only difference from the cylindrical-bore 22240EMD1: envelopes and ratings match, but drive-up tooling, sleeve and seat do not — never mix the two mounting methods.
  • Do not confuse EA and EM at the same number: 22240EMKD1 carries EM machined-brass-cage; swapping to the other cage execution changes mass, speed behaviour and sometimes suitability for vibration, even though the 200×360 mm envelope is identical.
  • Do not confuse EA and EM at the same number: 22240EMKD1 carries EM machined-brass-cage; swapping to the other cage execution changes mass, speed behaviour and sometimes suitability for vibration, even though the 200×360 mm envelope is identical.
  • Minimum load must be maintained even at rest under vibration: an unloaded 22240EMKD1 on a stopped screen false-brinells; parking brakes and shaker isolation both matter.
  • The 1810/2100 kN ratings, 124 kN Pu and 41800 g mass are NTN Ball and Roller Bearings CAT.No.2203E values for 22240EMKD1 (EM machined-brass-cage/D1); 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 22240EMKD1?

22240EMKD1 is an NTN double-row spherical roller bearing to ISO 15: 200 mm bore, 360 mm OD and 98 mm width (7.874 × 14.173 × 3.858 in). From NTN Ball and Roller Bearings CAT.No.2203E: C 1810 kN, C0 2100 kN, Pu 124 kN, grease limiting speed 1,400 r/min, oil 1,700 r/min, mass about 41800 g. It is open, with one-piece machined brass cage (EM high-capacity design) and a 1:12 tapered bore.

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

K denotes a 1:12 tapered bore. 22240EMKD1 mounts on an adapter sleeve (or tapered shaft seat) and is driven up to the specified residual clearance; its cylindrical-bore counterpart in the same envelope and ratings is 22240EMD1.

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. 22240EMKD1 is the EM machined-brass-cage execution, listed with the * ULTAGE new-generation mark.

What do D1 and W33 mean on 22240EMKD1?

D1 is NTN's outer-ring lubrication feature: an annular groove with oil holes around the outer ring, aligned with a housing grease port so lubricant reaches both roller rows directly. 22240EMKD1 carries D1; W33 is the equivalent industry-spelled annular-groove-and-holes feature seen on other executions.

How much misalignment and axial load can 22240EMKD1 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 — 1810 kN C / 2100 kN C0 — but sustained pure axial load is not recommended because it unloads one row.
