30306 cross reference by brand

30306 is an ISO designation: bore d, outside diameter D and total width T are the same at each maker. The letters each maker adds are series, design or cage codes, not seal codes, so the full number is different at every brand. The table below lists the checked form for each one.

Tolerances and fits for 30306

FULI makes 30306 to P0 as standard, with P6 on request. P0 is the Normal tolerance class of ISO 492; P6 limits are tighter. These are the P0 limits for the 30 × 72 × 20.75 mm size.

DimensionNominal, mmDeviation, µmLimits, mm
Bore d (Δdmp)300 / −1230.000 / 29.988
Outside diameter D (ΔDmp)720 / −1672.000 / 71.984
Total width T (ΔTs)20.75+200 / 020.950 / 20.750

Δdmp and ΔDmp: deviation of the mean bore and mean outside diameter in one radial plane. ΔTs: assembled width of cone and cup, from the ISO 492 table for metric tapered roller bearings. Cone width B and cup width C: 0 / −120 µm each.

Shaft and housing fits (general guidance)

For an inner ring that turns with a solid steel shaft under normal load, bearing makers’ fit tables give 30 k5 for the shaft of 30306. The cup usually sits in an H7 or J7 housing bore so that it can be moved when the pair is adjusted.

SeatDeviation, µmLimits, mmFit with 30306
Shaft 30 k5+11 / +230.011 / 30.0022 to 23 µm interference
Housing 72 H7+30 / 072.030 / 72.0000 to 46 µm clearance
Housing 72 J7+18 / −1272.018 / 71.98812 µm interference to 34 µm clearance

Taking the loosest and the tightest combination of limits, a P0 30306 on a 30 mm k5 shaft has 2 to 23 µm interference. Its cup has 0 to 46 µm clearance in an H7 bore and 12 µm interference to 34 µm clearance in a J7 bore.

This is general guidance, not a FULI specification. Heavy or shock loads, a hollow shaft, a thin-walled, split or light-alloy housing, or a large temperature difference between shaft and housing call for other classes, and the drawing of your machine takes priority.

If the outer ring turns and the shaft stands still, as in an idler pulley or a wheel hub, the fits are reversed: the housing gets the interference fit (for example N7 or P7) and the shaft a sliding one (g6 or h6).

30306 compared with nearby sizes

30306 measures 30 × 72 × 20.75 mm: bore d, outside diameter D and total width T. Other tapered roller bearings on this site for the same 30 mm shaft are 32006 (30 × 55 × 17 mm), 30206 (30 × 62 × 17.25 mm), 32206 (30 × 62 × 21.25 mm) and 33206 (30 × 62 × 25 mm).

33206 is the lighter option on the same shaft, with an outside diameter 10 mm smaller (62 mm) and 4.25 mm more width (25 mm), for housings with less room. In FULI's catalog 33206 has a dynamic load rating of 63.80 kN against 59.00 kN and a weight of about 0.347 kg against 0.385 kg for 30306.

30207 has the same 72 mm outside diameter with a 35 mm bore, so it fits the same housing bore on a larger shaft.

32207 has the same 72 mm outside diameter with a 35 mm bore, so it fits the same housing bore on a larger shaft.

In the 303 series the sizes either side of 30306 are 30305 for a 25 mm shaft and 30307 for a 35 mm shaft.

30306 weight, load ratings and speed

FULI's catalog gives the weight of 30306 as about 0.385 kg, so 100 bearings weigh about 38.5 kg and 1,000 about 385 kg before packing. The weight is for the cone and cup together.

30306 has a dynamic load rating Cr of 59.00 kN and a static load rating C0r of 63.10 kN. Cr is the load used to work out rating life; C0r is the reference for loads carried while the bearing is stationary or turning slowly.

30306 cone and cup

30306 is supplied as a complete bearing: the cone (inner ring with rollers and cage) and the cup (outer ring). The total width T of 20.75 mm applies when the two are assembled; the cone and the cup on their own are each narrower. Tell us if you need only the cone or only the cup.

Tapered roller bearings carry radial load and axial load in one direction, so 30306 is normally mounted as one of a pair facing each other, and the end play or preload is set when the pair is adjusted on the shaft. That is why FULI lists the clearance as set during mounting, not as a C-class value.

30306 dimensions in inches

The nearest common inch shaft size to the 30 mm bore of 30306 is 1-3/16 in (30.16 mm), 0.16 mm larger than the bore, so 30306 will not go on it. Inch shafts need an inch bearing, not a metric one with a sleeve or shim.

Bore d30 mm1.1811 in

Total width T20.75 mm0.8169 in

Converted at 1 in = 25.4 mm and rounded to four decimals. The bearing itself is made to the millimetre sizes.

Grease for 30306

FULI supplies tapered roller bearings rust-protected and normally without grease; grease is added when 30306 is mounted. Relubricating 30306 from the side takes about 7.47 g each time by the formula in our grease calculator: 0.005 × D × T = 0.005 × 72 × 20.75.

How FULI supplies 30306

The standard 30306 from FULI has GCr15 chrome steel rings and rollers and P0 precision, with P6 on request. Where an order states a requirement for the total width T (20.75 mm for 30306) or the cone height, each set is checked on a height gauge.

Rings are marked with a brand you are authorised to use, with the FULI brand, or left neutral, as your order states. The box is printed with the model, precision class and brand.

Inquiries that leave out the prefix or suffix letters are the usual cause of a wrong quote, so write the full designation, for example 30306.

FAQ

What is the difference between 30306 and 33206?

Both fit a 30 mm shaft. 30306 is 30 × 72 × 20.75 mm and 33206 is 30 × 62 × 25 mm, so 33206 has an outside diameter 10 mm smaller (62 mm) and 4.25 mm more width (25 mm). In FULI's catalog 33206 has a dynamic load rating of 63.80 kN against 59.00 kN and a weight of about 0.347 kg against 0.385 kg for 30306. 33206 suits a housing with less room; 30306 carries more load.

What size is 30306 in inches?

30306 is 1.1811 × 2.8346 × 0.8169 in (30 × 72 × 20.75 mm, d × D × T). The nearest common inch shaft size to the 30 mm bore of 30306 is 1-3/16 in (30.16 mm), 0.16 mm larger than the bore, so 30306 will not go on it. Use an inch bearing on an inch shaft.

How much does 30306 weigh?

About 0.385 kg in FULI's catalog, so 100 pieces weigh about 38.5 kg before packing. The weight is for the cone and cup together.

How much grease does 30306 need?

About 7.47 g each time it is relubricated from the side (0.005 × 72 × 20.75). FULI ships 30306 rust-protected without grease, so the first fill is made at mounting.

Is 30306 the same size across brands?

Bore d, outside diameter D and total width T are the same: 30306 is an ISO designation. The letters each maker adds (NSK HR and J, NTN 4T-, Koyo JR, FAG XL, SKF J2/Q) are series, design or cage codes, not seal codes.
