NSK NU2328EM dimensions and technical reference
NSK NU2328EM is a single-row NU-type cylindrical roller bearing with boundary dimensions 140×300×102 mm (bore d × outside diameter D × width B). This reference uses the catalogue row for NU2328E, the explicit NU availability column and its standard cage. It is not a generic specification for every bearing with the same bore or base number.
Full designation and cage
The catalogue stem is NU2328E. The standard cage code M completes the designation NU2328EM; it identifies a machined brass cage. E identifies the high-load-capacity design; a version without E can have different ratings even when d, D and B match.
Axial location and rib arrangement
The NU arrangement permits axial displacement between the rings and is used at a non-locating position. It does not by itself locate the shaft axially.
Load ratings and operating speed
Basic dynamic radial rating Cr is 1250 kN and basic static radial rating C0r is 1380 kN. These are reference ratings for calculation, not allowable machine loads. Both the load ratings and speed values on this page apply to the standard cage; a listed optional cage does not inherit these values without confirmation.
The grease limiting speed is 1700 r/min; the oil-bath limiting speed is 2200 r/min. The thermal oil-bath rating and forced-oil mechanical limit are separate operating references. A dash in the source means not stated, not zero. Load, heat removal, lubricant and duty determine whether a catalogue speed is suitable.
Mounting and selection limits
- Read shoulder diameters and fillet radii with the matching NU/NJ/NUP or N/NF mounting arrangement. The db maximum refers to an adjusting ring for NU and NJ, not a universal shaft shoulder.
- NSK requires increasing da and reducing Da from the tabulated values when axial loads apply. The table does not specify the amount for your assembly, so these figures do not approve an axially loaded installation.
- Mass is printed once for a shared catalogue row. It is retained as a reference, not claimed as an individually verified mass for each rib arrangement.
- ISO Normal follows the omitted precision-suffix rule. The clearance omission rule depends on whether the design is interchangeable; this page does not assert a numerical CN, C3 or CC clearance range.
- Very light loads can cause roller slip and smearing. Shock, vibration, lubrication and alignment must be considered; size matching alone does not establish a substitute.
- An NJ bearing plus a suitable HJ thrust collar is an NH arrangement. No collar designation or complete NH assembly is established by this row. Double-row NN/NNU products and other cage or clearance variants are not covered.
- No machine fitment, CAD model, seal performance or installed preload is established here. Confirm the complete marking and application before using the data.
- The source asterisk means optimized roller crowning may be available. It does not establish an &-marked variant or justify adding & to this model.
