How the NATV8-PP model number is decoded
envelope 8×24×15 mm: the 24 mm outside diameter is the track-running surface — a thick-walled outer ring over a 8 mm bore — and the 15 mm width sets the contact width on the mating track the catalogue lists C 7.8 kN and C0 11.7 kN for the NATV full-complement yoke-type track roller with axial guidance; the C/C0 ratio of 0.67 reflects a rolling-element pack sized for heavy static track loading, and the 8.0 mm radial section gives the outer ring its bending stiffness fatigue load limit Cur is 1.62 kN at 8 mm bore, equivalent to 0.97 kN of dynamic rating per millimetre — the limiting speed is 2,500 r/min and, as for HR1 track rollers, no thermal reference speed is published the 8 mm bore takes the mounting pin or shaft; across the 15 mm contact width the dynamic rating works out to 0.52 kN per millimetre of rolling-element complement mass is 41 g, or 0.11 g per mm² of the 24×15 mm track envelope — inertia that the drive must accelerate on every index of the cam 8 mm pin bore and only 41 g: the smallest sizes demand accurate shaft geometry, because the 8.0 mm section leaves no tolerance for a soft or tapered seat NATV is the full-complement yoke-type track roller: cageless needle rollers pack the 24 mm envelope for maximum C0 11.7 kN, guided axially by the outer-ring ribs Without a cage the NATV trades speed for static capacity — the limiting speed is 2,500 r/min, with C 7.8 kN and C0 11.7 kN The -PP suffix fits contact lip seals on both sides, retaining the factory grease and excluding water and dust; seal friction is reflected in the 2,500 r/min limiting speed. Typical applications include automotive welding jig rollers, conveyor transfer and diverting stations and automatic assembly machine carriages, where the 24 mm track diameter and 7.8 kN dynamic rating match the duty. In automotive welding jig rollers the unit fits a compact 8 mm seat, and in conveyor transfer and diverting stations the 41 g mass keeps follower kinetics light. Designers also specify it for automatic assembly machine carriages, relying on the 15 mm width and the published 11.7 kN static rating. Yoke lugs must support the pin on both sides over its full length — single-sided support turns the pin into a cantilever beam. The pin or shaft is part of the bearing system: harden it for RSTO/RNA22 positions, and size its deflection because the roller cannot compensate for a bent pin.
Typical equipment & failure modes
Common applications
- automatic assembly machine carriages
- agricultural and textile cam followers
- linear rail and profile track guidance
- glass and ceramic line conveyors
Known failure patterns
- outer-ring fatigue cracking across the unsupported track zone under excessive static load
- track-side brinelling when the mating rail is softer than the roller running surface
- flat spots from standing loads or very short oscillating strokes on full-complement rollers
- seal lip failure and grease loss after sustained running above the limiting speed (PP/2RSR executions)
- edge wear from skewed tracks that exceed the crowned-profile correction range
- pin-seat fretting where a hard journal requirement (RSTO/RNA22) was met with a soft pin
- roller walk-off in flangeless STO/RSTO executions with uncontrolled lateral float
- contamination entry through open sides in dusty or wash-down environments
- cage fracture in caged NATR/STO rollers exposed to heavy shock
Selection pitfalls — read before you substitute
- Yoke lugs must support the pin on both sides over its full length — single-sided support turns the pin into a cantilever beam.
- The pin or shaft is part of the bearing system: harden it for RSTO/RNA22 positions, and size its deflection because the roller cannot compensate for a bent pin.
- Flangeless STO/RSTO/RNA22/NA22 rollers need external axial location; circlips or shoulders must control end float or the roller walks off the track.
Frequently asked questions
What are the dimensions of the NATV8-PP?
The NATV8-PP is a NATV full-complement yoke-type track roller with axial guidance with 24 mm outside diameter, 8 mm bore and 15 mm width, envelope 8×24×15 mm. Mass is 41 g.
What does the NATV8-PP designation mean in the FAG/INA HR1 catalogue?
NATV8-PP identifies this NATV full-complement yoke-type track roller with axial guidance in the Schaeffler HR1 rolling bearings catalogue. The envelope is 8×24×15 mm and the catalogue ratings are C 7.8 kN, C0 11.7 kN, Cur 1.62 kN.
What is the load capacity of the NATV8-PP?
The basic dynamic load rating C is 7.8 kN and the basic static load rating C0 is 11.7 kN; the fatigue load limit Cur is 1.62 kN. For track rollers these values already cover the thick-walled outer ring bending case on an unsupported track.
What is the maximum speed of the NATV8-PP?
HR1 lists a limiting speed of 2,500 r/min for track rollers and no thermal reference speed. The crowned thick-walled outer ring and (on stud types) the stud contact make the limiting speed the governing figure.
What must the mating track and pin look like for the NATV8-PP?
The track should be flat, harder than the roller contact and clean; the crowned 24 mm outer surface tolerates only small angular error. The inner ring lets the 8 mm pin run at normal machined tolerance; lateral guidance comes from the adjacent structure on flangeless executions.
