NSK NUP2208ET dimensions and technical reference
NSK NUP2208ET is a single-row NUP-type cylindrical roller bearing with boundary dimensions 40×80×23 mm (bore d × outside diameter D × width B). This reference uses the catalogue row for NU2208E, the explicit NUP 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 NUP2208E. The standard cage code T completes the designation NUP2208ET; it identifies a polyamide 66 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 NUP arrangement can locate the shaft axially in both directions. Its loose rib must be mounted with the marked side facing out. Radial ratings do not establish permissible axial loading.
Load ratings and operating speed
Basic dynamic radial rating Cr is 89 kN and basic static radial rating C0r is 77.5 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 7500 r/min; the oil-bath limiting speed is 9000 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.
- For the ET polyamide-66 cage design, NSK states continuous operation from −40 °C to +120 °C, with additional lubricant restrictions above 100 °C. This is a cage-family limit, not approval of an entire machine at that temperature.
