How the 24032EMK30D1 model number is decoded
The NTN order number 24032EMK30D1 identifies a 160×240×80 mm (6.299 × 9.449 × 3.15 in) spherical roller bearing, 1:30 tapered bore (K30), to the ISO 15 boundary plan. Digit by digit the code reads as spherical-roller dimension series plus 160 mm bore; the 80 mm width is the wide ISO 15 section, which is why spherical rollers interchange dimensionally but not in cage or rating detail. The sphered outer raceway lets the inner-ring assembly pivot, accommodating shaft deflection and housing misalignment (around 1–2° for this class; use the 2203E value for the exact series) without edge loading the rollers. Pu 56.8 kN against C0 1290 kN anchors the contamination derating; for dirty mining duty the adjusted life of 24032EMK30D1 moves with cleanliness far more than with small C variations. 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
- offshore and marine propulsion shaftlines
- large wind-turbine main-shaft arrangements
- steel-mill and heavy crusher main shafts
- mining shovel and dragline swing shafts
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
- roller-end smearing during skidding starts under light load and high viscosity grease
- rolling-contact fatigue after the catalogue L10 life at the actual load
- brinelling from static overload or a hammer blow during sleeve mounting
Selection pitfalls — read before you substitute
- At 160 mm bore 24032EMK30D1 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.
- Minimum load must be maintained even at rest under vibration: an unloaded 24032EMK30D1 on a stopped screen false-brinells; parking brakes and shaker isolation both matter.
- The 1:30 tapered bore is the only difference from the cylindrical-bore 24032EMD1: envelopes and ratings match, but drive-up tooling, sleeve and seat do not — never mix the two mounting methods.
- The D1/W33 groove only helps if the housing has a matching grease passage; mounting a D1 24032EMK30D1 in a solid block with no port wastes the feature and leaves the centre rows under-lubricated.
- Minimum load must be maintained even at rest under vibration: an unloaded 24032EMK30D1 on a stopped screen false-brinells; parking brakes and shaker isolation both matter.
- The 901/1290 kN ratings, 56.8 kN Pu and 12400 g mass are NTN Ball and Roller Bearings CAT.No.2203E values for 24032EMK30D1 (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 24032EMK30D1?
24032EMK30D1 is an NTN double-row spherical roller bearing to ISO 15: 160 mm bore, 240 mm OD and 80 mm width (6.299 × 9.449 × 3.15 in). From NTN Ball and Roller Bearings CAT.No.2203E: C 901 kN, C0 1290 kN, Pu 56.8 kN, grease limiting speed 1,600 r/min, oil 2,000 r/min, mass about 12400 g. It is open, with one-piece machined brass cage (EM high-capacity design) and a 1:30 tapered bore.
What is the difference between the K/K30 tapered bore and the cylindrical bore versions?
K30 denotes a 1:30 tapered bore (the wide 24000 series). 24032EMK30D1 mounts on a matching adapter or withdrawal sleeve on a plain 160 mm shaft and is driven up to a measured radial clearance; the cylindrical-bore counterpart is 24032EMD1.
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. 24032EMK30D1 is the EM machined-brass-cage execution, listed with the * ULTAGE new-generation mark.
What do D1 and W33 mean on 24032EMK30D1?
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. 24032EMK30D1 carries D1; W33 is the equivalent industry-spelled annular-groove-and-holes feature seen on other executions.
How much misalignment and axial load can 24032EMK30D1 take?
The sphered outer raceway compensates static and dynamic misalignment in the order of 1–2° (verify the exact 2203E figure for the 24000 series); beyond that, load concentrates on one roller row. Load is predominantly radial with a moderate axial share in either direction — 901 kN C / 1290 kN C0 — but sustained pure axial load is not recommended because it unloads one row.
