How the 305806-C-2Z model number is decoded

the 72 mm outside diameter is the crowned track contact surface, the 30 mm bore takes the pin and the 23.8 mm overall width spreads the Hertzian contact across the thick-walled outer ring published ratings C 25.1 kN and C0 16.3 kN already include the outer-ring bending correction that track rollers require; the C/C0 ratio of 1.54 reflects two ball sets at a 30 deg contact angle fatigue load limit Pu 0.695 kN against a 30 mm bore gives 0.84 kN per mm of bore, and the 5,000 r/min figure is a mechanical limit rather than a thermal one the maximum permissible radial loads are Fr 17 kN dynamically and F0r 24 kN statically; because the permissible static load is the lower of F0r and C0, the 16.3 kN figure governs static selection here the 23.8 mm width carries 1.05 kN per mm, the ring section measures 21.0 mm between bore and track surface, and 490 g over a 72x23.8 mm envelope is 0.286 g per mm2 of projected area for medium-speed cam duty dimensionally this is a 32 dimension series of double row angular contact ball bearings at 30 mm bore with a thick-walled outer ring pushed out to 72 mm (the base bearing measures 62 mm); the additional ring wall is what resists bending when the roller is unsupported in a housing at 30 mm bore this is the largest cam roller listed; the 23.8 mm width gives 25.1 kN dynamic capacity but the limiting speed drops to 5,000 r/min, so it suits slow, heavily loaded cams the 3058 prefix identifies the double row cam roller with a crowned running surface — the design to choose when the load path tends to tilt the roller axis relative to the track because there are two ball rows, this roller accepts noticeably higher tilting moments than a single row cam roller of the same outside diameter; the trade is a larger section and a lower limiting speed the crowned outer ring is ground to a 400 mm radius while the bore and width follow the standard 32-series envelope, so the roller can be swapped into an existing yoke without changing the pin or housing typical duties are food processing index conveyors, packaging machine timing cams and glass handling line guides this size is regularly specified for food processing index conveyors and packaging machine timing cams, where the 72 mm ring rides the cam profile and the 30 mm bore takes a g6 pin the two ball rows and the 23.8 mm wide ring make glass handling line guides a natural fit; the 490 g mass keeps the follower inertia low enough for rapid oscillating cam motion the crowned surface is ground at twice the Normal tolerance for its diameter; do not mix a 3058 ring with a 3057 flat ring in a matched pair relubrication is only possible through the inner-ring lubrication hole, which needs a matching duct in the pin; without that duct the roller is effectively sealed for life

Typical equipment & failure modes

Common applications

  • paper converting web guides
  • food processing index conveyors
  • textile machinery cam gear
  • packaging machine timing cams

Known failure patterns

  • read the loading direction before selecting the contact angle: the 30 deg double row design is strong radially and in tilt, but continuous axial load on the outer ring is outside its intended duty
  • the polyamide snap cage has a lower temperature ceiling than the steel ribbon cage — respect the lubricant and cage limits when the application runs hot
  • the crowned surface is ground at twice the Normal tolerance for its diameter; do not mix a 3058 ring with a 3057 flat ring in a matched pair
  • relubrication is only possible through the inner-ring lubrication hole, which needs a matching duct in the pin; without that duct the roller is effectively sealed for life
  • the 2Z shows as a sheet steel shield, so it will not hold grease as tightly as a contact seal and will not exclude fine abrasive dust from wash-down environments
  • the permissible static load is governed by the lower of F0r and C0, and the two ball rows must not be sized on C0 alone in a stationary cam position

Selection pitfalls — read before you substitute

  • the polyamide snap cage has a lower temperature ceiling than the steel ribbon cage — respect the lubricant and cage limits when the application runs hot
  • the crowned surface is ground at twice the Normal tolerance for its diameter; do not mix a 3058 ring with a 3057 flat ring in a matched pair
  • relubrication is only possible through the inner-ring lubrication hole, which needs a matching duct in the pin; without that duct the roller is effectively sealed for life

Frequently asked questions

What are the dimensions of 305806-C-2Z?

305806-C-2Z is a double row cam roller with a crowned running surface with a 30 mm bore, 72 mm outside diameter and 23.8 mm overall width. The 72 mm ring is the track contact surface and the 30 mm bore takes a pin machined to tolerance class g6.

What does the C-2Z designation mean?

305806 C-2Z is the SKF catalogue designation: the 3058 prefix fixes the double row angular contact basis with a thick-walled outer ring, and the 2Z suffix means sheet steel shields on both sides.

What is the load capacity of 305806-C-2Z?

The basic dynamic load rating C is 25.1 kN and the basic static load rating C0 is 16.3 kN, both already corrected for outer-ring bending. The maximum permissible radial loads are Fr 17 kN and F0r 24 kN, and the permissible static load is the lower of F0r and C0.
