How the 22316EMKD1 model number is decoded
22316EMKD1 is the EM machined-brass-cage execution of NTN's spherical roller range for a 80 mm shaft — 541 kN basic dynamic capacity in a 6150 g, open ISO 15 envelope. On the NTN nameplate the suffix cluster after the size reads in order: cage design (EM), bore (K), lubrication feature (D1); 22316EMKD1 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 80 mm bore assembly. Speed planning: 2,700 r/min grease limiting speed is the cage/kinematic ceiling and 3,400 r/min is the oil-lubricated value for the 80 mm bore; vibrating screens rarely approach either and are load/cage limited instead. 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
- paper-machine dryer and press rolls
- cement-mill and kiln auxiliary drives
- large gearbox and marine gear shafts
- wind-turbine gearbox and rotor bearings
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
- micro-pitting when the EHL film is thinner than the raceway composite roughness
- water-induced pitting in washdown or outdoor duty without effective external seals
- fretting corrosion between adapter sleeve and tapered bore when the drive-up is insufficient
Selection pitfalls — read before you substitute
- Mount the 80 mm ring with induction heat or the sleeve drive-up procedure; at 6150 g cocking damages the spherical raceways, and repositioning after seating is impractical.
- Self-aligning does not mean unlimited misalignment: beyond the catalogue angle the outer ring's spherical travel is exhausted and the 541 kN rating no longer applies.
- Self-aligning does not mean unlimited misalignment: beyond the catalogue angle the outer ring's spherical travel is exhausted and the 541 kN rating no longer applies.
- The D1/W33 groove only helps if the housing has a matching grease passage; mounting a D1 22316EMKD1 in a solid block with no port wastes the feature and leaves the centre rows under-lubricated.
- Do not confuse EA and EM at the same number: 22316EMKD1 carries EM machined-brass-cage; swapping to the other cage execution changes mass, speed behaviour and sometimes suitability for vibration, even though the 80×170 mm envelope is identical.
- The 541/522 kN ratings, 32.5 kN Pu and 6150 g mass are NTN Ball and Roller Bearings CAT.No.2203E values for 22316EMKD1 (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 22316EMKD1?
22316EMKD1 is an NTN double-row spherical roller bearing to ISO 15: 80 mm bore, 170 mm OD and 58 mm width (3.15 × 6.693 × 2.283 in). From NTN Ball and Roller Bearings CAT.No.2203E: C 541 kN, C0 522 kN, Pu 32.5 kN, grease limiting speed 2,700 r/min, oil 3,400 r/min, mass about 6150 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. 22316EMKD1 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 22316EMD1.
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. 22316EMKD1 is the EM machined-brass-cage execution, listed with the ＊ ULTAGE new-generation mark.
What do D1 and W33 mean on 22316EMKD1?
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. 22316EMKD1 carries D1; W33 is the equivalent industry-spelled annular-groove-and-holes feature seen on other executions.
How much misalignment and axial load can 22316EMKD1 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 — 541 kN C / 522 kN C0 — but sustained pure axial load is not recommended because it unloads one row.
