How the 323052UTG model number is decoded
4T-323052UTG is an NTN double-row tapered roller bearing of TDO (back-to-back) construction: two cone assemblies against one double cup, supplied as a preset unit of 260×400×104 mm. Suffix reading on 323052UTG: 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. Catalogue mass of 4T-323052UTG is 47.7 kg; lifting and fitting tackle must be rated for the whole preset unit, not for single-ring handling. The internal clearance of 4T-323052UTG is set at the factory by the double cup and spacer-less grinding; do not attempt to re-adjust it with shaft nuts — the 104 mm overall width is the finished dimension. 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
- power-plant mill and fan shafts
- rolling-mill roll-neck and pinion-stand positions
- mine hoist and dragline drum shafts
- cement-plant mill and kiln drive trains
Known failure patterns
- edge loading on one row when the housing seats the double cup cocked across its width
- preload loss and hammering noise when the cup clamping loosens and the unit gains axial float
- brinelling of both rows from a mounting blow transmitted through the roller complements
- cage fatigue after continuous running near the grease limiting speed without oil cooling
- indentation of both raceways by hard particles in an open, unsealed arrangement
Selection pitfalls — read before you substitute
- At 260 mm bore the 4T-323052UTG unit needs hydraulic or crane-assisted fitting and a verified oil supply; manual methods cannot control seating at the 1470 kN C level.
- The 432 heavy plan gives 4T-323052UTG its 104 mm width and 1470 kN rating at the 260 mm bore; do not downgrade to a 430-family unit of the same bore without re-checking C, C0 and the 187 kN Cu.
- Lubricant must reach both rows: a housing groove aligned to the cup mid-width of 4T-323052UTG 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 104 mm width, load spread and clearance logic of 4T-323052UTG are unit-specific.
- The internal clearance of 4T-323052UTG is factory-set: no end-play adjustment exists at mounting, and any attempt to set preload with a shaft nut overloads one row.
- The 1470/2190 kN ratings and 187 kN Cu here are NTN Ball and Roller Bearings CAT.No.2203E figures for 4T-323052UTG; 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-323052UTG?
4T-323052UTG is a double-row tapered roller bearing of TDO (back-to-back) construction: 260 mm bore, 400 mm outside diameter and 104 mm overall width. From NTN Ball and Roller Bearings CAT.No.2203E: C 1470 kN, C0 2190 kN, Cu 187 kN, grease limiting speed 670 r/min, oil speed 1,000 r/min, mass about 47.7 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 260 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-323052UTG 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-323052UTG 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 104 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 323052UTG mean?
Suffix reading on 323052UTG: 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-323052UTG list two speeds, 670 and 1,000 r/min?
The lower figure, 670 r/min, is the grease-lubricated limiting speed for the two rows and their cages. With oil lubrication NTN rates 4T-323052UTG 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.
