How the 423156UTG model number is decoded

4T-423156UTG 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. The 4T- prefix is NTN's tapered roller quality mark; 430 numbers the light TDO plan and 432 the heavy TDO plan — at the same 280 mm bore the 432 execution carries a wider, heavier section than the 430. The 90.0 mm radial section over the 280 mm bore carries two roller rows across the 183 mm width; abutment shoulders must clear both cone bores and the double-cup OD. TDO construction means the two cone assemblies of 4T-423156UTG 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 280 mm shaft. Mount 4T-423156UTG as one article: lift on the double cup, never on a single cone, or the preset alignment of the two rows is disturbed.

Typical equipment & failure modes

Common applications

  • heavy press and forging-machine drives
  • large shredder and recycler main shafts
  • power-plant mill and fan shafts
  • rolling-mill roll-neck and pinion-stand positions

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
  • pressed-steel cage pocket wear from roller skid at light load and high speed
  • water-induced pitting when washdown reaches the open unit without external seals

Selection pitfalls — read before you substitute

  • At 280 mm bore the 4T-423156UTG unit needs hydraulic or crane-assisted fitting and a verified oil supply; manual methods cannot control seating at the 2480 kN C level.
  • The 430 light plan keeps 4T-423156UTG 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.
  • The 90.0 mm section leaves little room for oversized shaft fillets; follow the 2203E chamfer table for 4T-423156UTG or the cones bottom out on the radius.
  • An unloaded 4T-423156UTG near 580 r/min lets rollers skid; ensure a minimum load or light spring preload on high-speed positions.
  • The internal clearance of 4T-423156UTG is factory-set: no end-play adjustment exists at mounting, and any attempt to set preload with a shaft nut overloads one row.
  • The 2480/3650 kN ratings and 300 kN Cu here are NTN Ball and Roller Bearings CAT.No.2203E figures for 4T-423156UTG; 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-423156UTG?

4T-423156UTG is a double-row tapered roller bearing of TDO (back-to-back) construction: 280 mm bore, 460 mm outside diameter and 183 mm overall width. From NTN Ball and Roller Bearings CAT.No.2203E: C 2480 kN, C0 3650 kN, Cu 300 kN, grease limiting speed 580 r/min, oil speed 830 r/min, mass about 110 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-423156UTG 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-423156UTG 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 183 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 423156UTG mean?

Suffix reading on 423156UTG: 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-423156UTG list two speeds, 580 and 830 r/min?

The lower figure, 580 r/min, is the grease-lubricated limiting speed for the two rows and their cages. With oil lubrication NTN rates 4T-423156UTG at 830 r/min because oil removes heat from both roller rows better — the housing feed must reach both rows through the double cup.
