How the 323030 model number is decoded
NTN supplies this 150 mm shaft position as 4T-323030: a factory-adjusted double-row tapered roller bearing whose two roller rows share one double cup, overall width 56 mm. Reading the designation: the last two digits 30 are the bore code, ×5 = 150 mm (codes 00–03 use the 10/12/15/17 exception table); the leading digits place the bearing in the heavy-duty 432-family TDO double-row series. Grease relubrication at the 1,200 r/min limiting speed must reach both roller rows; sustaining 1,600 r/min needs an oil supply with defined flow through the double cup. TDO construction means the two cone assemblies of 4T-323030 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 150 mm shaft. Mount 4T-323030 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
- 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
- edge loading on one row when the housing seats the double cup cocked across its width
- one-row flaking when a bent shaft concentrates the combined load on a single row of the pair
- overheated running after a field attempt to "tighten up" the factory-set internal clearance
- cage damage when the unit is lifted by one cone instead of the double cup during fitting
- water-induced pitting when washdown reaches the open unit without external seals
Selection pitfalls — read before you substitute
- At 150 mm bore the 4T-323030 unit needs hydraulic or crane-assisted fitting and a verified oil supply; manual methods cannot control seating at the 395 kN C level.
- The 432 heavy plan gives 4T-323030 its 56 mm width and 395 kN rating at the 150 mm bore; do not downgrade to a 430-family unit of the same bore without re-checking C, C0 and the 64 kN Cu.
- An unloaded 4T-323030 near 1,200 r/min lets rollers skid; ensure a minimum load or light spring preload on high-speed positions.
- Never interchange a TDO double-row unit with two single-row bearings of similar size: the 56 mm width, load spread and clearance logic of 4T-323030 are unit-specific.
- Order by the full 323030 code including suffixes — U, X, DX, E1 and UTG variants share the 150 mm bore but are different articles with different internal geometry.
- The 395/630 kN ratings and 64 kN Cu here are NTN Ball and Roller Bearings CAT.No.2203E figures for 4T-323030; 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-323030?
4T-323030 is a double-row tapered roller bearing of TDO (back-to-back) construction: 150 mm bore, 225 mm outside diameter and 56 mm overall width. From NTN Ball and Roller Bearings CAT.No.2203E: C 395 kN, C0 630 kN, Cu 64 kN, grease limiting speed 1,200 r/min, oil speed 1,600 r/min, mass about 7.63 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 150 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-323030 belongs to the heavy-duty 432-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-323030 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 56 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 323030 mean?
With no letter suffix, 323030 is the basic open double-row execution: steel cages, factory-set internal clearance, no feature suffix in the order code.
Why does 4T-323030 list two speeds, 1,200 and 1,600 r/min?
The lower figure, 1,200 r/min, is the grease-lubricated limiting speed for the two rows and their cages. With oil lubrication NTN rates 4T-323030 at 1,600 r/min because oil removes heat from both roller rows better — the housing feed must reach both rows through the double cup.
