How the 941-932 model number is decoded
4T-941/932 is an NTN inch-series single-row tapered roller bearing: a separable cone-and-cup pair on the ABMA inch boundary plan, 101.6×212.725×66.675 mm (assembled width T), for a shaft of about 101.6 mm (4 in). 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 — 941 sits in the pure-numeric inch family. Two single-row inch sets are normally mounted as an adjusted O or X pair; the 66.675 mm T of each 4T-941/932 enters the spacer calculation, so the tolerance on assembled width matters as much as the bore fit. The printed 525/695 kN ratings belong to the assembled 941+932 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. Contact-pattern check with marking blue: a pattern biased to one roller end means the 101.6 mm pair is misadjusted and the set will edge-load in service.
Typical equipment & failure modes
Common applications
- large conveyor head pulleys in bulk-handling plant
- paper-machine and calender roll supports
- off-highway and forestry machine axles
- marine winch and deck-machinery shafts
Known failure patterns
- cone-rib and roller large-end smearing when the adjusted pair runs with preload but starved lubricant film
- flaking on one cone only when a bent shaft loads the O/X pair unevenly
- cup creep and housing fretting when the cup seat is cut too loose for the rotating load
- cage damage from a mounting blow transmitted through the roller complement
- indentation of the raceways by hard particles in an open, unsealed arrangement
Selection pitfalls — read before you substitute
- Mount the 101.6 mm cone by induction heating (max 120 °C) and the 212.725 mm cup with a press sleeve; at 11200 g a cocked ring brinells the raceway directly.
- The pure-numeric inch family at 101.6 mm bore (212.725×66.675 mm assembled) is one of several inch families sharing similar bores; cross-series swaps change OD, T and contact angle, so match the full 941/932 reference at purchase.
- ABMA makes the 101.6×212.725 mm envelope interchangeable, not the ratings: NTN prints 525/695 kN for this execution and another make of the same number can differ in roller complement.
- Replacing one half of an adjusted pair without resetting end play negates the 66.675 mm T logic: re-adjust the set and re-verify the contact pattern rather than reusing the old spacer stack.
- Quote the full 941/932 pair at ordering: the 941 cone also ships against sibling cups, and a cup from another reference changes the 66.675 mm assembled width and the rating.
- The 525/695 kN ratings here are NTN Ball and Roller Bearings CAT.No.2203E figures for 4T-941/932; 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-941/932?
4T-941/932 is an inch-series single-row tapered roller bearing to the ABMA boundary plan: 101.6 mm bore (4 in), 212.725 mm outside diameter and 66.675 mm assembled width T (8.375 × 2.625 in). From NTN Ball and Roller Bearings CAT.No.2203E: C 525 kN, C0 695 kN, grease limiting speed 1,800 r/min, oil speed 2,300 r/min, mass about 11200 g. It is an open, separable cone/cup set with a pressed-steel cage.
Are the cone and cup of 4T-941/932 interchangeable separately?
Yes — ABMA inch parts are individually interchangeable: the 941 cone or the 932 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 525/695 kN ratings change with the cup.
What is the difference between 4T-941/932 and a metric ISO 355 tapered bearing?
4T-941/932 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 101.6×212.725×66.675 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-941/932 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 941/932 references; the 4T spelling is retained among this page's search aliases.
Why does 4T-941/932 list two speeds, 1,800 and 2,300 r/min?
The lower figure, 1,800 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-941/932 at 2,300 r/min because oil removes rib-contact heat better. Real limits still depend on pair adjustment, oil flow and cooling.
