How the 423056UTG model number is decoded

4T-423056UTG belongs to the light-duty 430-family TDO double-row series of NTN double-row tapered roller bearings; the unit is mounted as one article and its internal clearance is set at the factory, not on the shaft. Reading the designation: the last two digits 56 are the bore code, ×5 = 280 mm (codes 00–03 use the 10/12/15/17 exception table); the leading digits place the bearing in the light-duty 430-family TDO double-row series. The 5.5 kN of dynamic capacity per millimetre of bore summarises the 1540 kN rating over the 280 mm bore — compare substitution candidates on this ratio and on the 133 mm width. Because the unit is preset, mounting 4T-423056UTG resembles mounting a double-row spherical or cylindrical bearing: seat the unit, clamp axially to the stated end cover torque, and verify rotation — no end-play measurement is required. With a rotating shaft a m6/n6 seat on the 280 mm journal and a located cup in the housing are typical practice for 4T-423056UTG.

Typical equipment & failure modes

Common applications

  • cement-plant mill and kiln drive trains
  • port-crane hoist and luffing gearboxes
  • heavy press and forging-machine drives
  • large shredder and recycler main shafts

Known failure patterns

  • roller large-end smearing against the cone ribs when one row of the unit runs starved of lubricant
  • brinelling of both rows from a mounting blow transmitted through the roller complements
  • preload loss and hammering noise when the cup clamping loosens and the unit gains axial float
  • cage fatigue after continuous running near the grease limiting speed without oil cooling
  • thermal distress when the oil supply sized for one row starves the second row

Selection pitfalls — read before you substitute

  • At 280 mm bore the 4T-423056UTG unit needs hydraulic or crane-assisted fitting and a verified oil supply; manual methods cannot control seating at the 1540 kN C level.
  • The 430 light plan keeps 4T-423056UTG narrower and faster than the 432 heavy execution of the same 280 mm bore; where shock or a high thrust share dominates, verify whether the heavier 432-family row is the intended position.
  • At inspection do not mix the cone assemblies of 4T-423056UTG with another unit; rows are ground together and re-matching is not guaranteed in the field.
  • Lubricant must reach both rows: a housing groove aligned to the cup mid-width of 4T-423056UTG feeds the two roller complements evenly; a single-side feed starves the far row.
  • Never interchange a TDO double-row unit with two single-row bearings of similar size: the 133 mm width, load spread and clearance logic of 4T-423056UTG are unit-specific.
  • The 1540/2340 kN ratings and 196 kN Cu here are NTN Ball and Roller Bearings CAT.No.2203E figures for 4T-423056UTG; internal geometry legitimately differs between manufacturers, so re-verify ratings, clearance class and suffix before substituting another make on a rated drive.

Frequently asked questions

What are the dimensions and catalogue ratings of NTN 4T-423056UTG?

4T-423056UTG is a double-row tapered roller bearing of TDO (back-to-back) construction: 280 mm bore, 420 mm outside diameter and 133 mm overall width. From NTN Ball and Roller Bearings CAT.No.2203E: C 1540 kN, C0 2340 kN, Cu 196 kN, grease limiting speed 620 r/min, oil speed 880 r/min, mass about 56.8 kg. It is an open, preset-clearance unit with pressed-steel cages.

What is the difference between the NTN 430 and 432 double-row series at 280 mm bore?

Both are TDO double-row tapered roller units, but 430 is the light plan and 432 the heavy plan: at the same bore the 432 execution is wider and heavier with higher load ratings. 4T-423056UTG belongs to the light-duty 430-family TDO double-row series. Large sizes continue the plans as 4130/4131/4230/4231 (430 family) and 3230/3231 (432 family).

Can the internal clearance of 4T-423056UTG be adjusted at mounting?

No. The TDO unit — two cone assemblies against one double cup — is ground and set by NTN at the factory, and the 133 mm overall width is the finished dimension. Mounting sets no end play: seat the unit square, clamp the cup uniformly and verify free rotation. Field re-adjustment overloads one row.

What do the suffix letters on 423056UTG mean?

Suffix reading on 423056UTG: UTG marks the ULTAGE specification for large NTN tapered rollers — upgraded material and internal design, printed with the * symbol ahead of the order number; suffixed variants are separate order numbers and are not interchangeable articles.

Why does 4T-423056UTG list two speeds, 620 and 880 r/min?

The lower figure, 620 r/min, is the grease-lubricated limiting speed for the two rows and their cages. With oil lubrication NTN rates 4T-423056UTG at 880 r/min because oil removes heat from both roller rows better — the housing feed must reach both rows through the double cup.
