Product Overview: The NU 2315 Cylindrical Roller Bearing
The NU 2315 is a high-capacity single-row cylindrical roller bearing, an essential component within our NU 2300 Series. Engineered with principal dimensions of 75x160x55mm, this bearing is designed to handle very high radial loads at high speeds. Its distinct NU design features two integral flanges on the inner ring and a flangeless outer ring. This configuration allows the bearing to accommodate axial displacement of the shaft relative to the housing in both directions, making it an excellent choice for non-locating bearing positions. This feature is particularly useful for managing shaft expansion or contraction due to temperature changes without inducing axial stress.
As part of our extensive range of Cylindrical Roller Bearings, the NU 2315 is manufactured to exacting standards to ensure reliability and a long service life in the most demanding industrial environments. The separable design, where the inner ring can be mounted independently of the outer ring and roller assembly, greatly simplifies installation, inspection, and maintenance procedures.

Features of the NU 2315 Bearing
- High Radial Load Capacity: The line contact between the rollers and raceways provides a large contact area, allowing the bearing to support heavy radial loads.
- Accommodates Axial Displacement: The NU design with a flangeless outer ring allows for free axial movement of the shaft in relation to the housing in both directions.
- Separable Design: The inner ring, outer ring, and roller assembly are separable, which simplifies mounting and dismounting processes.
- High-Speed Capability: Engineered for low friction and minimal heat generation, making it suitable for high-speed rotational applications.
- Robust Construction: Manufactured from high-quality bearing steel for superior durability, wear resistance, and operational longevity.
- Interchangeability: Components are interchangeable, allowing for easier replacement and maintenance.
