How the 23036EAKD1 model number is decoded
For heavy radial load with misalignment on a 180 mm shaft, NTN supplies 23036EAKD1: sphered outer raceway, two roller rows, pressed sheet-steel window cage (EA high-capacity design), oil speed 2,000 r/min. On the NTN nameplate the suffix cluster after the size reads in order: cage design (EA), bore (K), lubrication feature (D1); 23036EAKD1 is assembled exactly in that order. The D1 outer-ring annular oil groove with holes makes relubrication part of the design: fresh grease reaches the rolling elements through the outer-ring feature rather than relying solely on end-side packing. Selection: the C0/C ratio of 1.34 (1450/1080 kN) reflects the heavy static and shock proportioning of 23036EAKD1; size the equivalent load at the required L10 with shock factor for the application. Mount 23036EAKD1 on its adapter or withdrawal sleeve on the 180 mm plain shaft: oil the sleeve, fit the lock nut, drive up to the NTN-specified residual clearance (or use oil injection on large seats), then lock the tab washer.
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
- 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
- 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
- At 180 mm bore 23036EAKD1 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 1,600 r/min grease rating is lost to abrasive wear long before fatigue.
- Never substitute 23036EAKD1 by envelope alone: the 1450 kN C0 and 78.6 kN Pu are specific to the NTN EA pressed-steel-cage execution, and vibrating duty depends heavily on cage identity.
- The D1/W33 groove only helps if the housing has a matching grease passage; mounting a D1 23036EAKD1 in a solid block with no port wastes the feature and leaves the centre rows under-lubricated.
- 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 180 mm bearing, and drive-up procedures differ.
- The 1080/1450 kN ratings, 78.6 kN Pu and 16300 g mass are NTN Ball and Roller Bearings CAT.No.2203E values for 23036EAKD1 (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 23036EAKD1?
23036EAKD1 is an NTN double-row spherical roller bearing to ISO 15: 180 mm bore, 280 mm OD and 74 mm width (7.087 × 11.024 × 2.913 in). From NTN Ball and Roller Bearings CAT.No.2203E: C 1080 kN, C0 1450 kN, Pu 78.6 kN, grease limiting speed 1,600 r/min, oil 2,000 r/min, mass about 16300 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. 23036EAKD1 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 23036EAD1.
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. 23036EAKD1 is the EA pressed-steel-cage execution, listed with the ＊ ULTAGE new-generation mark.
What do D1 and W33 mean on 23036EAKD1?
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. 23036EAKD1 carries D1; W33 is the equivalent industry-spelled annular-groove-and-holes feature seen on other executions.
How much misalignment and axial load can 23036EAKD1 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 — 1080 kN C / 1450 kN C0 — but sustained pure axial load is not recommended because it unloads one row.
