How the 24052EMD1 model number is decoded

24052EMD1 is the EM machined-brass-cage execution of NTN's spherical roller range for a 260 mm shaft — 2520 kN basic dynamic capacity in a 63600 g, open ISO 15 envelope. On the NTN nameplate the suffix cluster after the size reads in order: cage design (EM), bore (cylindrical), lubrication feature (D1); 24052EMD1 is assembled exactly in that order. The cylindrical bore fits a machined 260 mm shaft seat directly; the same envelope in 24052EMK30D1 (tapered) is the sleeve-mounted alternative when clearance must be set by drive-up. Grease/oil ratio: the 960 r/min limiting value is .80 of the 1,200 r/min oil value; heavy 140 mm-wide cages run hot in churning grease, so quantity and groove supply both matter. Never mount 24052EMD1 by striking the outer ring through the roller set; drive through ring faces (or the adapter sleeve nut) and support the ring square to avoid brinelling the 400 mm race.

Typical equipment & failure modes

Common applications

  • cement-rotary-kiln support and trunnion rolls
  • large SAG/ball-mill trunnion and pinion shafts
  • heavy vibrating screens and grizzly feeders
  • offshore and marine propulsion shaftlines

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
  • micro-pitting when the EHL film is thinner than the raceway composite roughness
  • fretting corrosion between adapter sleeve and tapered bore when the drive-up is insufficient
  • asymmetric wear on the two roller rows from sustained angular misalignment beyond the self-aligning range

Selection pitfalls — read before you substitute

  • At 260 mm bore 24052EMD1 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.
  • Adapter-sleeve mounting requires the correct sleeve series and locknut for the 260 mm shaft; a sleeve sized to bore alone ignores thread, width and the oil-injection option on large K seats.
  • Open spherical rollers swallow dust in mining duty; specify labyrinth or taconite seals externally, or the 960 r/min grease rating is lost to abrasive wear long before fatigue.
  • Oil relubrication toward 1,200 r/min needs drain and level design; flooding the 140 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: 24052EMD1 carries EM machined-brass-cage; swapping to the other cage execution changes mass, speed behaviour and sometimes suitability for vibration, even though the 260×400 mm envelope is identical.
  • The 2520/3820 kN ratings, 139 kN Pu and 63600 g mass are NTN Ball and Roller Bearings CAT.No.2203E values for 24052EMD1 (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 24052EMD1?

24052EMD1 is an NTN double-row spherical roller bearing to ISO 15: 260 mm bore, 400 mm OD and 140 mm width (10.236 × 15.748 × 5.512 in). From NTN Ball and Roller Bearings CAT.No.2203E: C 2520 kN, C0 3820 kN, Pu 139 kN, grease limiting speed 960 r/min, oil 1,200 r/min, mass about 63600 g. It is open, with one-piece machined brass cage (EM high-capacity design).

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

24052EMD1 has a cylindrical bore and mounts directly on a machined shaft seat. Its tapered-bore counterpart is 24052EMK30D1 (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. 24052EMD1 is the EM machined-brass-cage execution, listed with the * ULTAGE new-generation mark.

What do D1 and W33 mean on 24052EMD1?

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. 24052EMD1 carries D1; W33 is the equivalent industry-spelled annular-groove-and-holes feature seen on other executions.

How much misalignment and axial load can 24052EMD1 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 — 2520 kN C / 3820 kN C0 — but sustained pure axial load is not recommended because it unloads one row.
