How the 423148UTG model number is decoded
In NTN Ball and Roller Bearings CAT.No.2203E, the order number 4T-423148UTG denotes the light-duty 430-family TDO double-row series — a 240 mm bore double-row tapered unit rated 1790 kN basic dynamic and 2600 kN static. Large sizes continue the plans under different leading digits: 4130/4131 and 4230/4231 belong to the 430-family dimension plan, while 3230/3231 continue the 432 heavy plan — 423148UTG reads accordingly. Selection: C 1790 kN against C0 2600 kN gives a C0/C ratio of 1.45; the two rows of 4T-423148UTG share the combined load as one bearing position. TDO construction means the two cone assemblies of 4T-423148UTG face away from each other inside one double cup: the load lines diverge outward, giving a wide effective spread and high moment stiffness for the 240 mm shaft. Axial clamping of the double cup must be uniform around the 400 mm OD; a cocked end cover pinches one row and destroys the factory clearance setting.
Typical equipment & failure modes
Common applications
- mine hoist and dragline drum shafts
- cement-plant mill and kiln drive trains
- port-crane hoist and luffing gearboxes
- heavy press and forging-machine drives
Known failure patterns
- edge loading on one row when the housing seats the double cup cocked across its width
- 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
- false brinelling on a stored or standby unit exposed to vibration
Selection pitfalls — read before you substitute
- At 240 mm bore the 4T-423148UTG unit needs hydraulic or crane-assisted fitting and a verified oil supply; manual methods cannot control seating at the 1790 kN C level.
- The 430 light plan keeps 4T-423148UTG narrower and faster than the 432 heavy execution of the same 240 mm bore; where shock or a high thrust share dominates, verify whether the heavier 432-family row is the intended position.
- The 1790 kN C already includes two-row load sharing — do not double it when pairing the unit with a floating bearing in the L10 calculation.
- At inspection do not mix the cone assemblies of 4T-423148UTG 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-423148UTG feeds the two roller complements evenly; a single-side feed starves the far row.
- The 1790/2600 kN ratings and 223 kN Cu here are NTN Ball and Roller Bearings CAT.No.2203E figures for 4T-423148UTG; 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-423148UTG?
4T-423148UTG is a double-row tapered roller bearing of TDO (back-to-back) construction: 240 mm bore, 400 mm outside diameter and 160 mm overall width. From NTN Ball and Roller Bearings CAT.No.2203E: C 1790 kN, C0 2600 kN, Cu 223 kN, grease limiting speed 690 r/min, oil speed 1,000 r/min, mass about 71.4 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 240 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-423148UTG 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-423148UTG 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 160 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 423148UTG mean?
Suffix reading on 423148UTG: 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-423148UTG list two speeds, 690 and 1,000 r/min?
The lower figure, 690 r/min, is the grease-lubricated limiting speed for the two rows and their cages. With oil lubrication NTN rates 4T-423148UTG at 1,000 r/min because oil removes heat from both roller rows better — the housing feed must reach both rows through the double cup.
