How the 756A-752 model number is decoded
NTN supplies this 3.125 in (79.375 mm) shaft position as 4T-756A/752: cone 756A, cup 752, profiled rollers and a pressed-steel cage, rated 299 kN basic dynamic and 385 kN static. Reading the designation: 4T-756A/752 follows the ABMA inch convention — the number before the slash is the cone (inner ring with roller set and cage), the number after the slash is the cup (outer ring), and the pure-numeric inch family lettering ties the pair to its boundary plan. Catalogue mass of the 4T-756A/752 cone-plus-cup set is 4550 g; shaft and housing shoulders must carry that mass square to the axis during fitting. Cup-side note for 752: within the pure-numeric inch family tables the 756A cone is listed against several cup options, and it is the cup that fixes the 161.925 mm OD and the 47.625 mm assembled width — quote the full 756A/752 pair, never the cone alone. After bedding-in, re-check the end play of the adjusted 4T-756A/752 pair — initial seating of the ring faces relaxes the setting slightly.
Typical equipment & failure modes
Common applications
- crusher and screening-plant eccentric shafts
- heavy truck and bus drive-axle differentials
- plant gearboxes on inch-dimensioned shaft lines
- large conveyor head pulleys in bulk-handling plant
Known failure patterns
- cone-rib and roller large-end smearing when the adjusted pair runs with preload but starved lubricant film
- preload loss and noise after one bearing of the adjusted pair is replaced without resetting end play
- false brinelling on a stationary pair exposed to vibration during transport or standby
- pressed-steel cage pocket wear from roller skid at light radial load and high speed
- brinell marks on cone and cup raceways from impact during handling or hammer fitting
Selection pitfalls — read before you substitute
- Mount the 79.375 mm cone by induction heating (max 120 °C) and the 161.925 mm cup with a press sleeve; at 4550 g a cocked ring brinells the raceway directly.
- The pure-numeric inch family at 79.375 mm bore (161.925×47.625 mm assembled) is one of several inch families sharing similar bores; cross-series swaps change OD, T and contact angle, so match the full 756A/752 reference at purchase.
- Fit selection follows the rotating ring: a rotating cone on a 79.375 mm shaft takes a k5/m5 seat, and a rotating cup reverses the logic — decide from the load diagram, not from habit.
- Quote the full 756A/752 pair at ordering: the 756A cone also ships against sibling cups, and a cup from another reference changes the 47.625 mm assembled width and the rating.
- Open 4T-756A/752 sets have no seals: a hub or gearbox needs external sealing or the 2,300 r/min grease figure is meaningless once water reaches the cone rib.
- The 299/385 kN ratings here are NTN Ball and Roller Bearings CAT.No.2203E figures for 4T-756A/752; 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-756A/752?
4T-756A/752 is an inch-series single-row tapered roller bearing to the ABMA boundary plan: 79.375 mm bore (3.125 in), 161.925 mm outside diameter and 47.625 mm assembled width T (6.375 × 1.875 in). From NTN Ball and Roller Bearings CAT.No.2203E: C 299 kN, C0 385 kN, grease limiting speed 2,300 r/min, oil speed 3,100 r/min, mass about 4550 g. It is an open, separable cone/cup set with a pressed-steel cage.
Are the cone and cup of 4T-756A/752 interchangeable separately?
Yes — ABMA inch parts are individually interchangeable: the 756A cone or the 752 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 299/385 kN ratings change with the cup.
What is the difference between 4T-756A/752 and a metric ISO 355 tapered bearing?
4T-756A/752 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 79.375×161.925×47.625 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-756A/752 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 756A/752 references; the 4T spelling is retained among this page's search aliases.
Why does 4T-756A/752 list two speeds, 2,300 and 3,100 r/min?
The lower figure, 2,300 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-756A/752 at 3,100 r/min because oil removes rib-contact heat better. Real limits still depend on pair adjustment, oil flow and cooling.
