How the PWTR30-2RS-XL model number is decoded

envelope 30×62×29 mm: the 62 mm outside diameter is the track-running surface — a thick-walled outer ring over a 30 mm bore — and the 29 mm width sets the contact width on the mating track the catalogue lists C 35 kN and C0 46 kN for the PWTR sealed double-row full-complement yoke-type track roller; the C/C0 ratio of 0.76 reflects a rolling-element pack sized for heavy static track loading, and the 16.0 mm radial section gives the outer ring its bending stiffness fatigue load limit Cur is 5.9 kN at 30 mm bore, equivalent to 1.17 kN of dynamic rating per millimetre — the limiting speed is 2,200 r/min and, as for HR1 track rollers, no thermal reference speed is published the 30 mm bore takes the mounting pin or shaft; across the 29 mm contact width the dynamic rating works out to 1.21 kN per millimetre of rolling-element complement mass is 465 g, or 0.26 g per mm² of the 62×29 mm track envelope — inertia that the drive must accelerate on every index of the cam the 30 mm pin bore falls in the small band, the workhorse size for gearbox planetary positions, hydraulic pumps and general cam and linkage duty PWTR is the sealed double-row full-complement yoke roller: two cylindrical roller rows, 2RS contact seals both sides and the profiled (crowned) running surface on the 62 mm outer ring At 465 g the double-row roller has substantial inertia; the cam drive must accelerate that mass, and a misaligned track concentrates load onto one row As an X-life (-XL) bearing it benefits from the optimised surface finish that reduces friction and raises the fatigue strength behind the 5.9 kN Cur value. 2RS means two side contact seals: the sealed roller excludes contamination without a separate shield arrangement, at the published limiting speed of 2,200 r/min. Typical applications include cam drives and indexing tables, printing press sheet-transfer grippers and woodworking machine feed tracks, where the 62 mm track diameter and 35 kN dynamic rating match the duty. In cam drives and indexing tables the unit fits a compact 30 mm seat, and in printing press sheet-transfer grippers the 465 g mass keeps follower kinetics light. Designers also specify it for woodworking machine feed tracks, relying on the 29 mm width and the published 46 kN static rating. Sealed PP/2RSR units are greased for life: never add a grease nipple, and respect the lower limiting speed imposed by the rubbing lips. 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.

Selection pitfalls — read before you substitute

• Sealed PP/2RSR units are greased for life: never add a grease nipple, and respect the lower limiting speed imposed by the rubbing lips.
• 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.
• Yoke lugs must support the pin on both sides over its full length — single-sided support turns the pin into a cantilever beam.
