How the 24056EMD1 model number is decoded
The NTN order number 24056EMD1 identifies a 280×420×140 mm (11.024 × 16.535 × 5.512 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 (EM), bore (cylindrical), lubrication feature (D1); 24056EMD1 is assembled exactly in that order. Pu 150 kN is the catalogue fatigue load limit for 24056EMD1, used in the adjusted-life equation at contaminated or partial-film conditions typical of mining and vibrating duty. With about 9.4 kN of C per millimetre of the 280 mm bore, 24056EMD1 screens interchange candidates quickly — then verify cage (EA/EM), bore (K/K30) and lubrication feature (D1/W33) suffixes. Fillet radii on shaft and housing must clear the ring chamfers of the 140 mm-wide set; use the NTN shoulder/withdrawal-groove table rather than copying a ball-bearing layout.
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
- 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
- water-induced pitting in washdown or outdoor duty without effective external seals
- fretting corrosion between adapter sleeve and tapered bore when the drive-up is insufficient
Selection pitfalls — read before you substitute
- At 280 mm bore 24056EMD1 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.
- Do not confuse EA and EM at the same number: 24056EMD1 carries EM machined-brass-cage; swapping to the other cage execution changes mass, speed behaviour and sometimes suitability for vibration, even though the 280×420 mm envelope is identical.
- The D1/W33 groove only helps if the housing has a matching grease passage; mounting a D1 24056EMD1 in a solid block with no port wastes the feature and leaves the centre rows under-lubricated.
- Adapter-sleeve mounting requires the correct sleeve series and locknut for the 280 mm shaft; a sleeve sized to bore alone ignores thread, width and the oil-injection option on large K seats.
- The D1/W33 groove only helps if the housing has a matching grease passage; mounting a D1 24056EMD1 in a solid block with no port wastes the feature and leaves the centre rows under-lubricated.
- The 2620/4060 kN ratings, 150 kN Pu and 67300 g mass are NTN Ball and Roller Bearings CAT.No.2203E values for 24056EMD1 (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 24056EMD1?
24056EMD1 is an NTN double-row spherical roller bearing to ISO 15: 280 mm bore, 420 mm OD and 140 mm width (11.024 × 16.535 × 5.512 in). From NTN Ball and Roller Bearings CAT.No.2203E: C 2620 kN, C0 4060 kN, Pu 150 kN, grease limiting speed 880 r/min, oil 1,100 r/min, mass about 67300 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?
24056EMD1 has a cylindrical bore and mounts directly on a machined shaft seat. Its tapered-bore counterpart is 24056EMK30D1 (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. 24056EMD1 is the EM machined-brass-cage execution, listed with the ＊ ULTAGE new-generation mark.
What do D1 and W33 mean on 24056EMD1?
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. 24056EMD1 carries D1; W33 is the equivalent industry-spelled annular-groove-and-holes feature seen on other executions.
How much misalignment and axial load can 24056EMD1 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 — 2620 kN C / 4060 kN C0 — but sustained pure axial load is not recommended because it unloads one row.
