How the 22328EMKD1 model number is decoded
NTN lists 22328EMKD1 with a 1:12 tapered bore (K) and D1 outer-ring annular oil groove with holes: 140 mm bore, 300 mm OD, 102 mm width, rated 1,500 r/min on grease. The leading digits are the ISO 15 dimension series (22300 series); the bore code resolves to 140 mm (two-digit code ×5, with the 00–03 exception table), and 300 mm OD / 102 mm width follow the general plan. At 1540 kN C and 34700 g mass the 22300 series part is built for shock and vibration; the 102 mm-wide ring needs square abutments to keep both rows equally loaded. Pu 88.8 kN against C0 1720 kN anchors the contamination derating; for dirty mining duty the adjusted life of 22328EMKD1 moves with cleanliness far more than with small C variations. On vibrating-duty shafts verify the radial clearance class and cage choice at order time; the open 22328EMKD1 leaves sealing and the C3/C4 clearance decision to the application drawing.
Typical equipment & failure modes
Common applications
- heavy vibrating screens and grizzly feeders
- offshore and marine propulsion shaftlines
- large wind-turbine main-shaft arrangements
- steel-mill and heavy crusher main shafts
Known failure patterns
- lubricant starvation at the centre rib area when the D1/W33 groove is not connected to a relubrication supply
- pressed EA cage fatigue under sustained vibration when minimum load is not maintained
- 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
- fretting corrosion between adapter sleeve and tapered bore when the drive-up is insufficient
Selection pitfalls — read before you substitute
- At 140 mm bore 22328EMKD1 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.
- Open spherical rollers swallow dust in mining duty; specify labyrinth or taconite seals externally, or the 1,500 r/min grease rating is lost to abrasive wear long before fatigue.
- Self-aligning does not mean unlimited misalignment: beyond the catalogue angle the outer ring's spherical travel is exhausted and the 1540 kN rating no longer applies.
- 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 140 mm bearing, and drive-up procedures differ.
- Open spherical rollers swallow dust in mining duty; specify labyrinth or taconite seals externally, or the 1,500 r/min grease rating is lost to abrasive wear long before fatigue.
- The 1540/1720 kN ratings, 88.8 kN Pu and 34700 g mass are NTN Ball and Roller Bearings CAT.No.2203E values for 22328EMKD1 (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 22328EMKD1?
22328EMKD1 is an NTN double-row spherical roller bearing to ISO 15: 140 mm bore, 300 mm OD and 102 mm width (5.512 × 11.811 × 4.016 in). From NTN Ball and Roller Bearings CAT.No.2203E: C 1540 kN, C0 1720 kN, Pu 88.8 kN, grease limiting speed 1,500 r/min, oil 1,900 r/min, mass about 34700 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. 22328EMKD1 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 22328EMD1.
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. 22328EMKD1 is the EM machined-brass-cage execution, listed with the ＊ ULTAGE new-generation mark.
What do D1 and W33 mean on 22328EMKD1?
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. 22328EMKD1 carries D1; W33 is the equivalent industry-spelled annular-groove-and-holes feature seen on other executions.
How much misalignment and axial load can 22328EMKD1 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 — 1540 kN C / 1720 kN C0 — but sustained pure axial load is not recommended because it unloads one row.
