How the 32084UTG model number is decoded
32084UTG belongs to the NTN metric 4T tapered roller range (low-section 32000 family tuned for low friction); the open bearing leaves sealing to the application and is normally ordered and mounted as an adjustable matched pair. The last two digits 84 are the ISO bore code, ×5 = 420 mm (codes 00–03 use the 10/12/15/17 exception table) under the ISO 355 numbering; the 125 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 32084UTG cone and cup separately and adjusts end play or preload against a second bearing, so the arrangement locates the shaft in both directions. Selection: C 2920 kN against C0 4550 kN gives a C0/C ratio of 1.56 for the 420 mm bore, and the equivalent combined load must keep below the rating at the target L10 with the pair counted as one unit. After mounting check the contact pattern with marking blue: a pattern biased to the large or small roller end means the 420 mm pair is misadjusted and the 125 mm T set will edge-load in service.
Typical equipment & failure modes
Common applications
- rolling-mill roll-neck and gearbox positions
- large crusher and SAG/AG-mill drive shafts
- wind-turbine gearbox and main-shaft arrangements
- offshore crane and drawworks drums
Known failure patterns
- cup creep and housing fretting when the specified outer-ring press fit is not achieved
- preload loss from racewear when one bearing of the paired set is replaced without re-adjusting end play
- rib scoring when axial load is carried beyond the cone rib capacity of the adjusted pair
- cage fatigue when the pair is run continuously near the grease limiting speed without oil cooling
- rolling-contact fatigue after the catalogue L10 life at the actual combined load
Selection pitfalls — read before you substitute
- At 420 mm bore the 32084UTG 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 2920 kN C level.
- The thin 125 mm section of 32084UTG is built for low friction and tight envelopes, not the heavy preload of a 322/323 set; over-tightening adjustment on this 420 mm bore smears the roller ends against the rib.
- Grease packs must leave free volume in the 125 mm-wide set; over-greasing a paired bearing churning at the 660 r/min oil-band speed raises temperature and destroys the preload setting.
- Do not confuse T (125 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 (125 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 2920/4550 kN ratings and 340 kN Pu here are NTN Ball and Roller Bearings CAT.No.2203E figures for 32084UTG; 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 32084UTG?
32084UTG is a metric 4T tapered roller bearing to ISO 355: 420 mm bore, 620 mm outside diameter and 125 mm assembled width T (16.535 × 24.409 × 4.921 in). From NTN Ball and Roller Bearings CAT.No.2203E: C 2920 kN, C0 4550 kN, Pu 340 kN, grease limiting speed 460 r/min, oil speed 660 r/min, mass about 120000 g. It is an open, separable cone/cup bearing with a pressed-steel cage.
What does the 4T prefix mean on 32084UTG?
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 (32084UTG); the lower-case 4t- factory spelling of the code is retained among the search aliases.
How does the 32084UTG designation encode the 420 mm bore?
last two digits 84 are the ISO bore code, ×5 = 420 mm (codes 00–03 use the 10/12/15/17 exception table). The 620 mm OD and 125 mm assembled T follow the ISO 355 dimension-series plan.
Why does 32084UTG list two speeds, 460 and 660 r/min?
The lower figure, 460 r/min, is the grease-lubricated limiting speed — the mechanical ceiling for the cage, rollers and cone-rib contact. With oil lubrication NTN rates 32084UTG at 660 r/min because oil removes rib-contact heat better. Real limits still depend on preload, oil flow and cooling.
What does the suffix on 32084UTG mean?
Suffix reading on 32084UTG: 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.
