How the 22317EMKD1 model number is decoded

22317EMKD1 is the EM machined-brass-cage execution of NTN's spherical roller range for a 85 mm shaft — 599 kN basic dynamic capacity in a 7150 g, open ISO 15 envelope. The leading digits are the ISO 15 dimension series (22300 series); the bore code resolves to 85 mm (two-digit code ×5, with the 00–03 exception table), and 180 mm OD / 60 mm width follow the general plan. Open by design, 22317EMKD1 requires application seals and a grease or oil system; NTN vibrating-duty executions of this envelope are selected with cage and clearance choices that are separate order codes. Selection: the C0/C ratio of 1.01 (604/599 kN) reflects the heavy static and shock proportioning of 22317EMKD1; size the equivalent load at the required L10 with shock factor for the application. After mounting on a tapered seat, lock the nut and re-check clearance after a short running-in period, because sleeve seating and ring lift-off can change the residual clearance of the 85 mm set.

Typical equipment & failure modes

Common applications

  • wind-turbine gearbox and rotor bearings
  • large vibrating screens and mining feeders
  • heavy conveyor and bucket-excavator pulleys
  • jaw/cone crusher eccentric and shaft positions

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
  • sliding wear and heat when relubrication intervals ignore the groove (D1/W33) supply path
  • hard-particle indentation through the open arrangement in dusty mining duty
  • asymmetric wear on the two roller rows from sustained angular misalignment beyond the self-aligning range

Selection pitfalls — read before you substitute

  • Mount the 85 mm ring with induction heat or the sleeve drive-up procedure; at 7150 g cocking damages the spherical raceways, and repositioning after seating is impractical.
  • Never substitute 22317EMKD1 by envelope alone: the 604 kN C0 and 36.4 kN Pu are specific to the NTN EM machined-brass-cage execution, and vibrating duty depends heavily on cage identity.
  • Never substitute 22317EMKD1 by envelope alone: the 604 kN C0 and 36.4 kN Pu are specific to the NTN EM machined-brass-cage execution, and vibrating duty depends heavily on cage identity.
  • The two roller rows must share load equally — a tilted spacer or unequal abutment on the 60 mm-wide ring loads one row only and shows as asymmetric race polish during inspection.
  • Self-aligning does not mean unlimited misalignment: beyond the catalogue angle the outer ring's spherical travel is exhausted and the 599 kN rating no longer applies.
  • The 599/604 kN ratings, 36.4 kN Pu and 7150 g mass are NTN Ball and Roller Bearings CAT.No.2203E values for 22317EMKD1 (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 22317EMKD1?

22317EMKD1 is an NTN double-row spherical roller bearing to ISO 15: 85 mm bore, 180 mm OD and 60 mm width (3.346 × 7.087 × 2.362 in). From NTN Ball and Roller Bearings CAT.No.2203E: C 599 kN, C0 604 kN, Pu 36.4 kN, grease limiting speed 2,600 r/min, oil 3,200 r/min, mass about 7150 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. 22317EMKD1 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 22317EMD1.

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. 22317EMKD1 is the EM machined-brass-cage execution, listed with the * ULTAGE new-generation mark.

What do D1 and W33 mean on 22317EMKD1?

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. 22317EMKD1 carries D1; W33 is the equivalent industry-spelled annular-groove-and-holes feature seen on other executions.

How much misalignment and axial load can 22317EMKD1 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 — 599 kN C / 604 kN C0 — but sustained pure axial load is not recommended because it unloads one row.
