How the 30336UTG model number is decoded
30336UTG belongs to the NTN metric 4T tapered roller range (large-OD 30300 family with the steeper contact angle); the open bearing leaves sealing to the application and is normally ordered and mounted as an adjustable matched pair. The last two digits 36 are the ISO bore code, ×5 = 180 mm (codes 00–03 use the 10/12/15/17 exception table) under the ISO 355 numbering; the 83 mm value printed here is T, the width of the fully assembled cone-plus-cup set, not the inner-ring width alone. A tapered roller bearing reacts combined radial and one-direction axial load; NTN mounts 30336UTG cone and cup separately and adjusts end play or preload against a second bearing, so the arrangement locates the shaft in both directions. Speed planning uses both catalogue columns: grease 960 r/min is the cage/rib mechanical ceiling for 30336UTG, oil 1,400 r/min is available with circulating oil — a 440 r/min margin at this size. Re-adjustment after bedding-in is standard practice: re-check end play once the paired 30336UTG arrangement has run in, because initial seat seating relaxes the set preload slightly.
Typical equipment & failure modes
Common applications
- offshore crane and drawworks drums
- heavy haul railway traction gearboxes
- large marine propulsion reduction gears
- cement-plant kiln and mill drive trains
Known failure patterns
- cone-raceway spalling at the large rib when preload is set too high for the lubricant film
- rib scoring when axial load is carried beyond the cone rib capacity of the adjusted pair
- preload loss from racewear when one bearing of the paired set is replaced without re-adjusting end play
- cage damage from a mounting blow delivered through the roller complement instead of the ring face
- brinell marks on cone and cup raceways from impact during handling or hammering during fitting
Selection pitfalls — read before you substitute
- At 180 mm bore the 30336UTG set is adjusted with hydraulic nuts on large mill and wind positions; follow the drive-up angle/end-play procedure, because manual torque methods cannot control preload at the 1170 kN C level.
- The steeper contact angle of the large-OD 30300 family with the steeper contact angle raises axial capacity but lowers the speed ceiling against a 302/322 bearing at 180 mm bore; do not swap to the lighter family without re-checking the 960 r/min grease limit and the thrust load split.
- The U/UTG/X/C/CA/D suffix variants of a base number share the bore but not the article: ordering 30336UTG by size alone can deliver the wrong contact-angle execution for a pinion position.
- Do not confuse T (83 mm assembled width of cone + cup) with the cone width when drawing spacers; an abutment sized to T instead of the ring width leaves the cup unseated.
- Do not confuse T (83 mm assembled width of cone + cup) with the cone width when drawing spacers; an abutment sized to T instead of the ring width leaves the cup unseated.
- The 1170/1190 kN ratings and 107 kN Pu here are NTN Ball and Roller Bearings CAT.No.2203E figures for 30336UTG; internal geometry legitimately differs between manufacturers, so re-verify ratings, adjustment and suffix before substituting another make on a rated drive.
Frequently asked questions
What are the dimensions and catalogue ratings of NTN 30336UTG?
30336UTG is a metric 4T tapered roller bearing to ISO 355: 180 mm bore, 380 mm outside diameter and 83 mm assembled width T (7.087 × 14.961 × 3.268 in). From NTN Ball and Roller Bearings CAT.No.2203E: C 1170 kN, C0 1190 kN, Pu 107 kN, grease limiting speed 960 r/min, oil speed 1,400 r/min, mass about 38900 g. It is an open, separable cone/cup bearing with a pressed-steel cage.
What does the 4T prefix mean on 30336UTG?
4T is NTN's tapered roller bearing brand mark, stamped on the cone and cup in the factory. It identifies the NTN 4T programme and is not a dimension, so the catalogue and this page list the bare ISO 355 number (30336UTG); the lower-case 4t- factory spelling of the code is retained among the search aliases.
How does the 30336UTG designation encode the 180 mm bore?
last two digits 36 are the ISO bore code, ×5 = 180 mm (codes 00–03 use the 10/12/15/17 exception table). The 380 mm OD and 83 mm assembled T follow the ISO 355 dimension-series plan.
Why does 30336UTG list two speeds, 960 and 1,400 r/min?
The lower figure, 960 r/min, is the grease-lubricated limiting speed — the mechanical ceiling for the cage, rollers and cone-rib contact. With oil lubrication NTN rates 30336UTG at 1,400 r/min because oil removes rib-contact heat better. Real limits still depend on preload, oil flow and cooling.
What does the suffix on 30336UTG mean?
Suffix reading on 30336UTG: the UTG suffix marks the ULTAGE specification for large NTN tapered rollers — upgraded material and internal design for longer life inside the unchanged ISO 355 envelope; the suffix is part of the order number and the variants are not interchangeable articles.
