Frequently asked questions about 30304
What does the open design mean on a 30304 bearing?
The 30304 (20mm x 52mm x 16.25mm) is supplied open — without seals or shields — so lubrication and relubrication come from the surrounding housing or an external system. Compare seal types before deciding on the replacement.
Which part numbers are equivalent to 30304?
Equivalent designations include 30304A, HR30304J, ET-30304 . These are brand-specific numbers for the same ISO boundary dimensions as the 30304 (20mm x 52mm x 16.25mm). The basic number matching does not confirm the complete specification — compare seal type, clearance, precision, cage, and lubrication suffix before ordering.
Does the 30304 come with C3 clearance?
This directory lists the 30304 with CN (Standard). C3 (increased internal clearance) versions are common for higher operating temperatures, higher speeds, or press-fit arrangements — specify the required clearance on your RFQ so the quotation matches the application. Read the clearance guide.
The 30304 is listed as a 20×52×16.25mm tapered roller bearing in open configuration. Part of the 30300 series, the directory records chrome steel gcr15 and P0 (ABEC-1) precision grade for RFQ verification.
The 30304 bearing cross-references to FAG 30304A, NSK HR30304J and NTN ET-30304. This means you can replace an SKF equivalent, FAG alternative, NSK cross reference, or NTN interchange part with the same ISO boundary dimensions. Compare the full specification table and designation suffixes before ordering, especially the seal type (2RS vs ZZ) and internal clearance (C3 vs CN).
About the 30300 Series
The 30300 series tapered roller bearings feature a steeper contact angle than the 30200 series, providing higher axial load capacity. Ideal for applications where thrust loads dominate, such as bevel gear sets and vertical shaft arrangements.
