How the 22315EAKD1 model number is decoded
In NTN Ball and Roller Bearings CAT.No.2203E, 22315EAKD1 denotes the 75 mm bore spherical roller bearing (491 kN C / 467 kN C0) in the 22300 series, the self-aligning choice for heavy combined load. On the NTN nameplate the suffix cluster after the size reads in order: cage design (EA), bore (K), lubrication feature (D1); 22315EAKD1 is assembled exactly in that order. The 1:12 tapered bore mounts on an adapter/withdrawal sleeve (or tapered seat); drive-up sets the residual radial clearance and fixes the axial position of the 75 mm bore assembly. Speed planning: 2,900 r/min grease limiting speed is the cage/kinematic ceiling and 3,600 r/min is the oil-lubricated value for the 75 mm bore; vibrating screens rarely approach either and are load/cage limited instead. Supply grease through the D1 feature during commissioning and at the calculated interval, rotating the 75 mm bore assembly by hand to distribute it across both rows.
Typical equipment & failure modes
Common applications
- heavy conveyor and bucket-excavator pulleys
- jaw/cone crusher eccentric and shaft positions
- paper-machine dryer and press rolls
- cement-mill and kiln auxiliary drives
Known failure patterns
- raceway spalling at the roller ends when misalignment or deflection concentrates the line contact
- cage damage when a mounting force is applied through the roller set instead of the ring face
- micro-pitting when the EHL film is thinner than the raceway composite roughness
- brinelling from static overload or a hammer blow during sleeve mounting
- hard-particle indentation through the open arrangement in dusty mining duty
Selection pitfalls — read before you substitute
- Mount the 75 mm ring with induction heat or the sleeve drive-up procedure; at 5070 g cocking damages the spherical raceways, and repositioning after seating is impractical.
- 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 75 mm bearing, and drive-up procedures differ.
- The D1/W33 groove only helps if the housing has a matching grease passage; mounting a D1 22315EAKD1 in a solid block with no port wastes the feature and leaves the centre rows under-lubricated.
- Never substitute 22315EAKD1 by envelope alone: the 467 kN C0 and 29.8 kN Pu are specific to the NTN EA pressed-steel-cage execution, and vibrating duty depends heavily on cage identity.
- Do not confuse EA and EM at the same number: 22315EAKD1 carries EA pressed-steel-cage; swapping to the other cage execution changes mass, speed behaviour and sometimes suitability for vibration, even though the 75×160 mm envelope is identical.
- The 491/467 kN ratings, 29.8 kN Pu and 5070 g mass are NTN Ball and Roller Bearings CAT.No.2203E values for 22315EAKD1 (EA pressed-steel-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 22315EAKD1?
22315EAKD1 is an NTN double-row spherical roller bearing to ISO 15: 75 mm bore, 160 mm OD and 55 mm width (2.953 × 6.299 × 2.165 in). From NTN Ball and Roller Bearings CAT.No.2203E: C 491 kN, C0 467 kN, Pu 29.8 kN, grease limiting speed 2,900 r/min, oil 3,600 r/min, mass about 5070 g. It is open, with pressed sheet-steel window cage (EA 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. 22315EAKD1 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 22315EAD1.
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. 22315EAKD1 is the EA pressed-steel-cage execution, listed with the * ULTAGE new-generation mark.
What do D1 and W33 mean on 22315EAKD1?
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. 22315EAKD1 carries D1; W33 is the equivalent industry-spelled annular-groove-and-holes feature seen on other executions.
How much misalignment and axial load can 22315EAKD1 take?
The sphered outer raceway compensates static and dynamic misalignment in the order of 1–2° (verify the exact 2203E figure for the 22300 series); beyond that, load concentrates on one roller row. Load is predominantly radial with a moderate axial share in either direction — 491 kN C / 467 kN C0 — but sustained pure axial load is not recommended because it unloads one row.
