How the 423188UTG model number is decoded

4T-423188UTG is the NTN 4T catalogue entry for a 440×720×283 mm double-row tapered roller bearing — the TDO arrangement reacts radial load plus thrust in both directions without a second bearing. 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 — 423188UTG reads accordingly. Grease relubrication at the 340 r/min limiting speed must reach both roller rows; sustaining 480 r/min needs an oil supply with defined flow through the double cup. The internal clearance of 4T-423188UTG is set at the factory by the double cup and spacer-less grinding; do not attempt to re-adjust it with shaft nuts — the 283 mm overall width is the finished dimension. Do not separate the cones from the double cup at inspection unless re-matching is guaranteed — the rows of 4T-423188UTG are ground as a unit.

Typical equipment & failure modes

Common applications

  • port-crane hoist and luffing gearboxes
  • heavy press and forging-machine drives
  • large shredder and recycler main shafts
  • power-plant mill and fan shafts

Known failure patterns

  • roller large-end smearing against the cone ribs when one row of the unit runs starved of lubricant
  • overheated running after a field attempt to "tighten up" the factory-set internal clearance
  • one-row flaking when a bent shaft concentrates the combined load on a single row of the pair
  • cage fatigue after continuous running near the grease limiting speed without oil cooling
  • fretting corrosion on a loose cone seat that creeps under rotating load

Selection pitfalls — read before you substitute

  • At 440 mm bore the 4T-423188UTG unit needs hydraulic or crane-assisted fitting and a verified oil supply; manual methods cannot control seating at the 6400 kN C level.
  • The 430 light plan keeps 4T-423188UTG narrower and faster than the 432 heavy execution of the same 440 mm bore; where shock or a high thrust share dominates, verify whether the heavier 432-family row is the intended position.
  • The 140.0 mm section leaves little room for oversized shaft fillets; follow the 2203E chamfer table for 4T-423188UTG or the cones bottom out on the radius.
  • Clamping the double cup with a cocked end cover pinches one row: tighten the 720 mm OD clamping uniformly around the circumference.
  • Clamping the double cup with a cocked end cover pinches one row: tighten the 720 mm OD clamping uniformly around the circumference.
  • The 6400/10300 kN ratings and 740 kN Cu here are NTN Ball and Roller Bearings CAT.No.2203E figures for 4T-423188UTG; 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-423188UTG?

4T-423188UTG is a double-row tapered roller bearing of TDO (back-to-back) construction: 440 mm bore, 720 mm outside diameter and 283 mm overall width. From NTN Ball and Roller Bearings CAT.No.2203E: C 6400 kN, C0 10300 kN, Cu 740 kN, grease limiting speed 340 r/min, oil speed 480 r/min, mass about 460 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 440 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-423188UTG 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-423188UTG 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 283 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 423188UTG mean?

Suffix reading on 423188UTG: 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-423188UTG list two speeds, 340 and 480 r/min?

The lower figure, 340 r/min, is the grease-lubricated limiting speed for the two rows and their cages. With oil lubrication NTN rates 4T-423188UTG at 480 r/min because oil removes heat from both roller rows better — the housing feed must reach both rows through the double cup.
