How the 432226XU model number is decoded
The NTN 2203E double-row table prints 4T-432226XU at 130 mm bore, 230 mm OD and 145 mm overall width, with a grease limiting speed of 1,300 r/min and an oil ceiling of 1,700 r/min. 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 130 mm bore the 432 execution carries a wider, heavier section than the 430. Axial capacity is bidirectional because the rows are opposed: 4T-432226XU locates the shaft in both directions with C0 1630 kN behind the static check of the more heavily loaded row. The internal clearance of 4T-432226XU is set at the factory by the double cup and spacer-less grinding; do not attempt to re-adjust it with shaft nuts — the 145 mm overall width is the finished dimension. The open unit carries no seals; the housing of 4T-432226XU must provide sealing and the grease fill or oil feed to both rows.
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
- 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 130 mm bore the 4T-432226XU unit needs hydraulic or crane-assisted fitting and a verified oil supply; manual methods cannot control seating at the 1010 kN C level.
- The 432 heavy plan gives 4T-432226XU its 145 mm width and 1010 kN rating at the 130 mm bore; do not downgrade to a 430-family unit of the same bore without re-checking C, C0 and the 167 kN Cu.
- The internal clearance of 4T-432226XU is factory-set: no end-play adjustment exists at mounting, and any attempt to set preload with a shaft nut overloads one row.
- Order by the full 432226XU code including suffixes — U, X, DX, E1 and UTG variants share the 130 mm bore but are different articles with different internal geometry.
- Open 4T-432226XU units have no seals: the housing must seal both rows or the 1,300 r/min grease figure is meaningless once contamination enters.
- The 1010/1630 kN ratings and 167 kN Cu here are NTN Ball and Roller Bearings CAT.No.2203E figures for 4T-432226XU; 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-432226XU?
4T-432226XU is a double-row tapered roller bearing of TDO (back-to-back) construction: 130 mm bore, 230 mm outside diameter and 145 mm overall width. From NTN Ball and Roller Bearings CAT.No.2203E: C 1010 kN, C0 1630 kN, Cu 167 kN, grease limiting speed 1,300 r/min, oil speed 1,700 r/min, mass about 24 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 130 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-432226XU 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-432226XU 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 145 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 432226XU mean?
Suffix reading on 432226XU: U marks the uprated/reinforced internal design, a separate order number with higher capacity than the basic execution; X marks the boundary-dimension revision of the base number (D and width differ from the plain number of the same bore); suffixed variants are separate order numbers and are not interchangeable articles.
Why does 4T-432226XU list two speeds, 1,300 and 1,700 r/min?
The lower figure, 1,300 r/min, is the grease-lubricated limiting speed for the two rows and their cages. With oil lubrication NTN rates 4T-432226XU at 1,700 r/min because oil removes heat from both roller rows better — the housing feed must reach both rows through the double cup.
