How the 23034EAD1 model number is decoded

The NTN order number 23034EAD1 identifies a 170×260×67 mm (6.693 × 10.236 × 2.638 in) spherical roller bearing, cylindrical bore, to the ISO 15 boundary plan. On the NTN nameplate the suffix cluster after the size reads in order: cage design (EA), bore (cylindrical), lubrication feature (D1); 23034EAD1 is assembled exactly in that order. The cylindrical bore fits a machined 170 mm shaft seat directly; the same envelope in 23034EAKD1 (tapered) is the sleeve-mounted alternative when clearance must be set by drive-up. The 45.0 mm section height hosts the spherical roller geometry; shaft and housing fillet radii must clear the chamfer table so the 67 mm-wide ring seats fully on both sides. 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 170 mm set.

Typical equipment & failure modes

Common applications

  • mining shovel and dragline swing shafts
  • cement-rotary-kiln support and trunnion rolls
  • large SAG/ball-mill trunnion and pinion shafts
  • heavy vibrating screens and grizzly feeders

Known failure patterns

  • raceway spalling at the roller ends when misalignment or deflection concentrates the line contact
  • pressed EA cage fatigue under sustained vibration when minimum load is not maintained
  • roller-end smearing during skidding starts under light load and high viscosity grease
  • false brinelling on stopped machines exposed to screen or crusher vibration
  • rolling-contact fatigue after the catalogue L10 life at the actual load

Selection pitfalls — read before you substitute

  • At 170 mm bore 23034EAD1 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.
  • Never substitute 23034EAD1 by envelope alone: the 1240 kN C0 and 68.8 kN Pu are specific to the NTN EA pressed-steel-cage execution, and vibrating duty depends heavily on cage identity.
  • Open spherical rollers swallow dust in mining duty; specify labyrinth or taconite seals externally, or the 1,700 r/min grease rating is lost to abrasive wear long before fatigue.
  • Oil relubrication toward 2,200 r/min needs drain and level design; flooding the 67 mm cavity churns heat through the heavy roller set and cage despite the higher oil speed figure.
  • Do not confuse EA and EM at the same number: 23034EAD1 carries EA pressed-steel-cage; swapping to the other cage execution changes mass, speed behaviour and sometimes suitability for vibration, even though the 170×260 mm envelope is identical.
  • The 914/1240 kN ratings, 68.8 kN Pu and 12700 g mass are NTN Ball and Roller Bearings CAT.No.2203E values for 23034EAD1 (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 23034EAD1?

23034EAD1 is an NTN double-row spherical roller bearing to ISO 15: 170 mm bore, 260 mm OD and 67 mm width (6.693 × 10.236 × 2.638 in). From NTN Ball and Roller Bearings CAT.No.2203E: C 914 kN, C0 1240 kN, Pu 68.8 kN, grease limiting speed 1,700 r/min, oil 2,200 r/min, mass about 12700 g. It is open, with pressed sheet-steel window cage (EA high-capacity design).

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

23034EAD1 has a cylindrical bore and mounts directly on a machined shaft seat. Its tapered-bore counterpart is 23034EAKD1 (K = 1:12, or K30 = 1:30 on the wide series), intended for adapter/withdrawal-sleeve mounting.

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. 23034EAD1 is the EA pressed-steel-cage execution, listed with the * ULTAGE new-generation mark.

What do D1 and W33 mean on 23034EAD1?

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. 23034EAD1 carries D1; W33 is the equivalent industry-spelled annular-groove-and-holes feature seen on other executions.

How much misalignment and axial load can 23034EAD1 take?

The sphered outer raceway compensates static and dynamic misalignment in the order of 1–2° (verify the exact 2203E figure for the 23000 series); beyond that, load concentrates on one roller row. Load is predominantly radial with a moderate axial share in either direction — 914 kN C / 1240 kN C0 — but sustained pure axial load is not recommended because it unloads one row.
