How the NUTR-2052-A model number is decoded
the 52 mm outside diameter runs on the track while the 20 mm bore takes the pin or shaft; the 25 mm overall width spreads the Hertzian contact over the outer ring published ratings C 31.9 kN and C0 39 kN already include the bending-stress correction for the unsupported outer ring — the C/C0 ratio of 0.82 is typical for double-row full-complement support roller, no integral flange executions fatigue load limit Pu 4.55 kN at 20 mm bore gives a specific load of 1.59 kN per mm; the limiting speed is 3,800 r/min the 25 mm width carries the load at 1.28 kN per mm of roller complement; section height 16.0 mm between bore and track surface determines the outer-ring bending stiffness mass 320 g over a 52x25 mm envelope works out to 0.246 g per mm² of projected area — a useful figure when sizing the drive inertia for medium-speed cam duty the 20 mm bore falls in the small-size band, the most common choice for general-purpose cam followers and light conveyor transfer rollers NUTR names a double-row full-complement cylindrical roller support roller: two roller sets carry the radial load, giving the highest C 31.9 kN of the 52 mm sizes, but there is no integral flange between the rows the A suffix denotes the improved design: optimised internal geometry and surface finish raise the limiting speed and reduce friction compared with the earlier execution typical applications include woodworking machinery feed rollers, cam mechanisms and indexing drives and material handling lift and lower tracks this size is commonly specified for woodworking machinery feed rollers and cam mechanisms and indexing drives, where the 52 mm track diameter and 20 mm bore fit standard cam and rail geometries in material handling lift and lower tracks the 52 mm outer ring provides the rolling contact while the inner ring bore simplifies mounting; the 320 g mass is low enough for rapid indexing cycles the heavy section and full complement make this the stiffest support roller — any shaft deflection directly increases edge stress the double-row construction is the widest in the support roller range; verify the track channel width accommodates the full B dimension
Typical equipment & failure modes
Common applications
- paper mill web guide rollers
- woodworking machinery feed rollers
- automatic assembly machine linkages
- food processing line track rollers
Known failure patterns
- the outer ring has no integral flange between the two roller rows — axial guidance depends entirely on the pressed-on flange rings, which can shift under heavy side load
- the double-row full complement is sensitive to misalignment; a bent shaft or angled track creates uneven load between the rows and early spalling
- relubrication is difficult because the roller rows are packed; follow the greasing interval strictly
- the two roller rows share the outer ring bending load; a misaligned track concentrates the load on one row and halves the life
- the heavy section and full complement make this the stiffest support roller — any shaft deflection directly increases edge stress
- the double-row construction is the widest in the support roller range; verify the track channel width accommodates the full B dimension

Frequently asked questions
What are the dimensions of the NUTR-2052-A?
NUTR-2052-A is a double-row full-complement support roller, no integral flange with 52 mm outside diameter, 20 mm bore diameter and 25 mm overall width. The bore is 20 mm and the track contact diameter is 52 mm.
What does the NUTR designation mean?
The NUTR prefix identifies this as a double-row full-complement support roller, no integral flange. In the SKF catalogue this designation carries the full specification including the 52x20x25 mm envelope and the 3800 r/min limiting speed.
What is the load capacity of NUTR-2052-A?
The published basic dynamic load rating C is 31.9 kN and the basic static load rating C0 is 39 kN. These values already include the bending-stress correction for the thick-walled outer ring running on a track.
