How the 45289-45220 model number is decoded
For an inch shaft of 57.15 mm carrying combined radial and thrust load, NTN lists 4T-45289/45220, a single-row 4T tapered roller set of 144 kN C and 169 kN C0 inside the 104.775 mm OD cup. Letter prefixes inherited from the inch convention mark the load family: LM reads as light-medium, HM as heavy-medium, LL as extra-light, J-prefixed codes as metric-envelope families — 45289 sits in the pure-numeric inch family. The 23.8 mm radial section over the 57.15 mm bore positions the contact line of the pair; abutment shoulders and spacers are dimensioned from that geometry, not from the bore alone. The printed 144/169 kN ratings belong to the assembled 45289+45220 pair; a sibling row using the same cone with a different cup carries its own rating row because the raceway track shifts with the cup. Back-to-back (O) and face-to-face (X) arrangements of two 4T-45289/45220 sets react differently to shaft bending; choose the orientation for the moment load before locking shoulder geometry.
Typical equipment & failure modes
Common applications
- paper-machine and calender roll supports
- off-highway and forestry machine axles
- marine winch and deck-machinery shafts
- crusher and screening-plant eccentric shafts
Known failure patterns
- rib-face scoring when the thrust share of the combined load exceeds what the cone rib of this size carries
- false brinelling on a stationary pair exposed to vibration during transport or standby
- preload loss and noise after one bearing of the adjusted pair is replaced without resetting end play
- pressed-steel cage pocket wear from roller skid at light radial load and high speed
- indentation of the raceways by hard particles in an open, unsealed arrangement
Selection pitfalls — read before you substitute
- Mount the 57.15 mm cone by induction heating (max 120 °C) and the 104.775 mm cup with a press sleeve; at 1100 g a cocked ring brinells the raceway directly.
- The pure-numeric inch family at 57.15 mm bore (104.775×30.162 mm assembled) is one of several inch families sharing similar bores; cross-series swaps change OD, T and contact angle, so match the full 45289/45220 reference at purchase.
- Open 4T-45289/45220 sets have no seals: a hub or gearbox needs external sealing or the 3,500 r/min grease figure is meaningless once water reaches the cone rib.
- Never drive the 104.775 mm cup home through the rollers: fitting force goes through the ring faces only, or brinell marks release as noise within the first running hours.
- ABMA makes the 57.15×104.775 mm envelope interchangeable, not the ratings: NTN prints 144/169 kN for this execution and another make of the same number can differ in roller complement.
- The 144/169 kN ratings here are NTN Ball and Roller Bearings CAT.No.2203E figures for 4T-45289/45220; internal geometry legitimately differs between inch-series makers, so re-verify ratings, adjustment and the exact cone/cup references before substituting another brand on a rated drive.
Frequently asked questions
What are the dimensions and catalogue ratings of NTN 4T-45289/45220?
4T-45289/45220 is an inch-series single-row tapered roller bearing to the ABMA boundary plan: 57.15 mm bore (2.25 in), 104.775 mm outside diameter and 30.162 mm assembled width T (4.125 × 1.187 in). From NTN Ball and Roller Bearings CAT.No.2203E: C 144 kN, C0 169 kN, grease limiting speed 3,500 r/min, oil speed 4,700 r/min, mass about 1100 g. It is an open, separable cone/cup set with a pressed-steel cage.
Are the cone and cup of 4T-45289/45220 interchangeable separately?
Yes — ABMA inch parts are individually interchangeable: the 45289 cone or the 45220 cup can be replaced by an identical reference from NTN or another ABMA-dimensioned maker. Pairing the cone with a different cup reference is a different catalogue row: OD, assembled T and the 144/169 kN ratings change with the cup.
What is the difference between 4T-45289/45220 and a metric ISO 355 tapered bearing?
4T-45289/45220 follows the ABMA inch boundary plan with cone/cup references; ISO 355 bearings use metric dimension-series numbers (302, 322, …). Even where a metric size looks close to 57.15×104.775×30.162 mm, the envelopes and contact angles differ — the two systems are not drop-in interchangeable; check every boundary value before substituting.
What does the 4T prefix on 4T-45289/45220 mean?
4T is NTN's tapered roller bearing quality mark, stamped on cone and cup in the factory. It identifies NTN's 4T programme and is not a dimension or variant code, so interchange lists quote the bare 45289/45220 references; the 4T spelling is retained among this page's search aliases.
Why does 4T-45289/45220 list two speeds, 3,500 and 4,700 r/min?
The lower figure, 3,500 r/min, is the grease-lubricated limiting speed — the mechanical ceiling for the cage, rollers and cone-rib contact. With oil lubrication NTN rates 4T-45289/45220 at 4,700 r/min because oil removes rib-contact heat better. Real limits still depend on pair adjustment, oil flow and cooling.
