Three checks for the 23072
Most wrong replacements come from one of these. Each answer below comes from the ENRO model table.
Does the size match?
Measure bore, outside diameter and width. The 23072 is 360 × 540 × 134 mm. If one value differs, see the adjacent sizes below.
Adjacent sizes →Which version do you need?
ENRO lists 2 versions: 23072W33, 23072K/W33. Match the seals, shields or bore type of the old bearing.
Versions table →Is the load rating enough?
Cr 2750 kN, C0r 4800 kN (catalog reference values). Check the life at your load and speed.

Selection notes for the 23072
How this size sits against its neighbours in the 23000 series and the other spherical roller bearing series with the same bore. Every figure is from the ENRO model table.
- The 23072 is the eighteenth of twenty-five sizes ENRO lists in the 23000 series, 360 × 540 × 134 mm.
- Next size down, the 23068, is 340 × 520 × 133 mm: twenty millimetres less bore, twenty millimetres less outside diameter, one millimetre narrower.
- Next size up, the 23076, is 380 × 560 × 135 mm: twenty millimetres more bore, twenty millimetres more outside diameter, one millimetre wider.
- Six other ENRO spherical roller bearings share the 360 mm bore: the 23972 (23900 series) is 480 × 90 mm, 60 mm less outside diameter and 44 mm narrower; the 23172 (23100 series) is 600 × 192 mm, 60 mm more outside diameter and 58 mm wider.
- The 23072 has a radial section of 90 mm ((D − d) / 2) on a 134 mm width, so its cross-section is wider than it is tall.
- Catalog reference values for the 23072: Cr 2750 kN, C0r 4800 kN, limiting speed 950 rpm with grease, 1,200 rpm with oil, weight 110 kg.
- Catalog dynamic load rating Cr is 2750 kN for the 23072 against 2700 kN for the 23068 (marginally less, 50 kN or 2%) and 2900 kN for the 23076 (slightly more, 150 kN or 5%).
- ENRO lists the 23072 in two versions: 23072W33, 23072K/W33. In the same series, the 23068 is listed in the same two versions; the 23076 is listed in the same two versions.

23072 FAQ
What are the dimensions of the 23072 spherical roller bearing?
The 23072 has a bore (d) of 360 mm, an outside diameter (D) of 540 mm and a width (B) of 134 mm. Minimum chamfer r is 5 mm.
What load rating does the 23072 have?
Catalog reference values: basic dynamic load rating Cr 2750 kN, static rating C0r 4800 kN, limiting speed 950 rpm with grease. Values are confirmed per batch on request.
Which versions of the 23072 can I order?
ENRO lists the 23072 as 23072W33 (Lubrication groove and holes), 23072K/W33 (Tapered bore 1:12 + Lubrication groove and holes). State the clearance group you need in your RFQ.
Is the ENRO 23072 interchangeable with other brands' 23072?
Boundary dimensions follow the ISO 15 dimension series. The ENRO 23072 is dimensionally interchangeable with other brands' 23072 of the same size. Confirm seal, clearance and cage requirements in your RFQ.
Where are ENRO bearings made?
ENRO bearings are Made in China by partner factories, under Japan-managed quality control. Every unit passes 100% outgoing inspection before shipment.
Which bearings have the same bore as the 23072?
In the ENRO range, 23972 (360 × 480 × 90 mm), 24072 (360 × 540 × 180 mm), 23172 (360 × 600 × 192 mm), 24172 (360 × 600 × 243 mm) share the 360 mm bore. Outside diameter and width differ, so check the housing before switching.
Which clearance group should I order for the 23072?
CN (normal) suits most positions. C3 is common where the inner ring runs warmer than the outer ring, as in electric motors. Groups are defined in ISO 5753-1; state the one you need in your RFQ.
