How the 24160EMK30D1 model number is decoded

24160EMK30D1 belongs to the 24100 series of NTN spherical rollers and carries the * ULTAGE new-generation mark in the 2203E table: self-aligning, high radial capacity, moderate axial load in either direction. Numbering ties 24160EMK30D1 to its envelope and execution: same-number EA versus EM or plain variants share the 300 mm bore but differ in cage and sometimes mass, so they are quoted as separate articles. The 100.0 mm radial section over the 300 mm bore carries two roller rows; capacity per millimetre of bore is about 14.2 kN/mm, among the highest of rolling bearings for the ISO 15 envelope. Pu 198 kN against C0 6610 kN anchors the contamination derating; for dirty mining duty the adjusted life of 24160EMK30D1 moves with cleanliness far more than with small C variations. Fillet radii on shaft and housing must clear the ring chamfers of the 200 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

  • 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
  • sliding wear and heat when relubrication intervals ignore the groove (D1/W33) supply path
  • 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 300 mm bore 24160EMK30D1 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.
  • Oil relubrication toward 950 r/min needs drain and level design; flooding the 200 mm cavity churns heat through the heavy roller set and cage despite the higher oil speed figure.
  • 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 300 mm bearing, and drive-up procedures differ.
  • Never substitute 24160EMK30D1 by envelope alone: the 6610 kN C0 and 198 kN Pu are specific to the NTN EM machined-brass-cage execution, and vibrating duty depends heavily on cage identity.
  • The 1:30 tapered bore is the only difference from the cylindrical-bore 24160EMD1: envelopes and ratings match, but drive-up tooling, sleeve and seat do not — never mix the two mounting methods.
  • The 4270/6610 kN ratings, 198 kN Pu and 157000 g mass are NTN Ball and Roller Bearings CAT.No.2203E values for 24160EMK30D1 (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 24160EMK30D1?

24160EMK30D1 is an NTN double-row spherical roller bearing to ISO 15: 300 mm bore, 500 mm OD and 200 mm width (11.811 × 19.685 × 7.874 in). From NTN Ball and Roller Bearings CAT.No.2203E: C 4270 kN, C0 6610 kN, Pu 198 kN, grease limiting speed 750 r/min, oil 950 r/min, mass about 157000 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 24100 series). 24160EMK30D1 mounts on a matching adapter or withdrawal sleeve on a plain 300 mm shaft and is driven up to a measured radial clearance; the cylindrical-bore counterpart is 24160EMD1.

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. 24160EMK30D1 is the EM machined-brass-cage execution, listed with the * ULTAGE new-generation mark.

What do D1 and W33 mean on 24160EMK30D1?

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. 24160EMK30D1 carries D1; W33 is the equivalent industry-spelled annular-groove-and-holes feature seen on other executions.

How much misalignment and axial load can 24160EMK30D1 take?

The sphered outer raceway compensates static and dynamic misalignment in the order of 1–2° (verify the exact 2203E figure for the 24100 series); beyond that, load concentrates on one roller row. Load is predominantly radial with a moderate axial share in either direction — 4270 kN C / 6610 kN C0 — but sustained pure axial load is not recommended because it unloads one row.
