ZEN NNF5010-PP-V-C3 Zylinderrollenlager (50x80x40)

As a cylindrical roller bearing, this bearing carries high radial loads with limited axial capacity. At 50x80x40 mm and a unit weight of 0.76 kg, the installation envelope is fixed; further technical details are held in the specification table. This variant features increased radial clearance (C3). The cylindrical roller bearing carries more radial load than any ball bearing of the same size — and lets the shaft expand freely in its length.

Cylindrical rollers run between inner and outer ring on line contact, which yields markedly higher radial capacity than point contact at the same size. Axial guidance comes not from the raceway shape but from ribs: which rings carry ribs decides whether the bearing locates the shaft axially or, as a floating position, absorbs its thermal growth — in ribless versions the roller set simply shifts along the raceway without inducing constraint forces.

That is exactly what makes the type the usual choice for the second position of a long shaft that heats up. It tolerates misalignment poorly: angular error travels straight to the roller edge, so seats must be aligned, accurate in form and stiff enough. The contact seal bears against its counterface and closes the rolling chamber against dust, splash water and wash-out; in return it raises frictional torque and limits permissible speed.

The slightly increased radial clearance provides reserve for tighter fits and for temperature differences between inner and outer ring, as they occur on shafts that run warm. Increased radial clearance C3 — Dimensional/form-fit equivalent — verify suffix-level details for critical applications. Matching suffixes are also listed by SKF (HC5C3, HC5C3WT, C3), FAG (C3), NSK (C3), NTN (C3) and NACHI (C3).
