How the BT2B332536-HA1 model number is decoded
Clearance note for BT2B332536-HA1: the operating clearance is set at the factory by spacer grinding between the two rows; the TDI/WIY2 variant encodes that setting, so the unit mounts without any adjustment — the assembler only verifies seat contact and clamps axially. The 92.1 mm radial section height ((438.15−254)/2) and 165.1 mm width frame a unit whose two rows share reversing thrust; keep the equivalent load P against the pair rating C 2685 kN, never against a single-row figure. Material and manufacturing detail: the 100000 g catalogue mass reflects through-hardened bearing steel machined to the listed envelope; ring roundness and width tolerance keep the mounted-setting scatter inside the catalogue class. When cross-referencing BT2B332536-HA1, note that the TDI/WIY2 variant is part of the SKF works designation: same-envelope units under another variant code can differ in clearance class and load rating even though d/D/T match. In the TDI O-arrangement the spread of the two rows of BT2B332536-HA1 gives high moment stiffness; the cups must be free to float microscopically in the housing so shaft thermal growth does not consume the factory clearance.SKF BT2B 332536/HA1 belongs to the SKF TDI double-row range — the 254 mm bore entry with a 438.15 mm outside diameter and 165.1 mm overall width, typical for rolling-mill and heavy industrial shafts.On the SKF nameplate, BT2B332536-HA1 reads as base BT2B 332536 in the TDI/WIY2 design variant; boundary dimensions 254×438.15×165.1 mm come from the base number, while clearance setting and spacer style come from the variant.
Typical equipment & failure modes
Common applications
- rolling-mill roll-neck bearings
- heavy-duty rolling-mill gearboxes
- large crusher and mineral-processing drives
- marine propulsion gearboxes
Known failure patterns
- brinelling of both raceways when mounting force is transmitted through the roller complement
- brinelling of both raceways when mounting force is transmitted through the roller complement
- cage pocket scoring when the bearing starts cold with grease of too-high base-oil viscosity
- fretting corrosion on a loose rotating shaft seat
- mounting score marks when the cone is cocked over the shaft keyway or a burr
Selection pitfalls — read before you substitute
- The 254 mm bore seat must be checked for ovality before mounting — at this size a worn seat lets the cone creep, and fretting debris then works between the rows of BT2B332536-HA1.
- Contamination control matters twice over for double-row units: particles trapped between the rows of BT2B332536-HA1 cannot migrate out, so flush the housing before assembly and fit filtration matched to the oil flow.

- The 2685/4250 kN ratings are SKF catalogue 17000 values for this execution; SKF can revise internal geometry without changing the order number, so keep the catalogue version (PUB BU/P1 17000/1 EN, 2018) with the specification.

Frequently asked questions
What are the dimensions and catalogue data of BT2B332536-HA1?
The SKF BT2B 332536/HA1 is a double-row tapered roller bearing of TDI design with 254 mm bore, 438.15 mm outer diameter and 165.1 mm overall width (10 × 17.25 × 6.5 in). From SKF catalogue PUB BU/P1 17000: basic dynamic load rating C 2685 kN, C0 4250 kN, fatigue load limit Pu 365 kN, mass about 100.00 kg.
What does the TDI/WIY2 variant code on BT2B332536-HA1 mean?
Double-row tapered bearings of this size follow SKF works numbering: the base number BT2B 332536 fixes the 254×438.15×165.1 mm envelope, and the TDI/WIY2 code identifies the internal design variant — spacer execution, rib detail and clearance class. Same-envelope units under a different variant are not interchangeable without checking the variant meaning.
Why does the catalogue list no speed rating for BT2B332536-HA1?
Bearings of this size class run in slow, heavily loaded machinery where the permissible speed is set by the application heat balance rather than a universal table value. Plan lubrication and cooling against the 100.0 kg assembly mass and instrument the first run with temperature logging.
Can components of BT2B332536-HA1 be interchanged with another unit of the same base number?
No — cones, cups and spacers of a double-row set are matched per serial and the clearance is set by selective grinding at the factory. Replace BT2B332536-HA1 as a complete assembly in the same TDI/WIY2 variant.
How does BT2B332536-HA1 react axial load?
The TDI design works as a fixed O arrangement: one double cone between two single cups gives a wide load spread and high moment stiffness while reacting thrust in both directions through the two rows.
