404 Slewing rings
For many years, Schaeffler has made a decisive contribution to the

development and current level of rolling bearing technology, particularly
through its compact needle roller bearings, high load capacity
cylindrical roller bearings and its diverse range of track rollers for rotary
and linear motion.
INA slewing rings are also known worldwide as premium products in
the field of rolling bearing technology. These machine elements have
proved themselves many times over; they have high load carrying
capacity, a versatile range of applications and are highly cost-effective.
Due to their design, a single bearing can reliably support radial,
axial and tilting moment loads. It is therefore possible in many cases
to replace bearing arrangements comprising a combination of radial
and axial bearings by a single bearing. This reduces, in some cases
considerably, the costs and work required in the design of the adjacent
construction and the fitting of bearings.
Slewing rings are sealed on both sides, lubricated with a high quality
grease, can be relubricated via lubrication nipples and are particularly
easy to fit. The bearing rings are supplied without gear teeth or,
in order to achieve simple drive solutions, are available with external
or internal gear teeth.
INA slewing rings are designed as:
■ four point contact bearings
– these slewing rings without preload are robust and proven
under very demanding operation; they place only slight demands
on the flatness and perpendicularity of the adjacent construction
– they are suitable for applications with low requirements for
accuracy and rigidity of the bearing arrangement, for example in
simple metalworking machines, wind power equipment and
construction machinery
■ crossed roller bearings
– these preloaded slewing rings can support higher loads than
four point contact bearings. They have proved themselves
particularly where bearings are subjected to high radial forces
and moderate axial and tilting moment loads
– they are suitable for applications with uniform running free from
stick-slip, low rotational resistance and high requirements for axial
and radial runout accuracy and rigidity, for example in robots,
handling systems and machine tools.
Catalogue 404 presented here gives comprehensive information
on the reorganised standard range of these slewing rings.
Any information in editions that does not concur with the information

Influences on the operating life of slewing rings

The operating life is defined as the life actually achieved by a
slewing ring. This can deviate significantly from the calculated
basic rating life due to wear and/or fatigue.
Possible causes include:
■ oscillating bearing motion with very small swivel angles –
false brinelling
■ vibration while the bearing is stationary
■ unsuitable design or deformation of the adjacent
construction
■ excessively high operating temperatures
■ incorrect maintenance or lubrication
■ contamination
■ incorrect fitting
■ preload of the fixing screws.
Due to the variety of installation and operating conditions,
it is not possible to precisely predetermine the operating life.
The most reliable way of arriving at a close estimate is by
comparison with similar applications.

Dimensioning of rotary drives

For the dimensioning of rotary drives, account must be taken
not only of the rotational resistance of the bearing but also:
■ the acceleration power
■ any tilted positioning of the machines
■ any wind forces acting on the bearing arrangement.
If precise values are not available, the value of MW used should
be doubled.

Raceway
During the lubrication procedure, foreign matter such as
contaminants, dust, spray water and condensation that have
entered the slewing ring are pressed out.
If possible, the grease used for relubrication should be the same
as that used in initial operation.
Lubrication should always be carried out on bearings that are
warm from operation:
■ clean the lubrication nipples.
■ grease should then be pressed into the lubrication nipples
until a collar of fresh grease forms around both seals
(one bearing ring should slowly rotated during this process)
– the old grease must be allowed to flow out unhindered.
Before initial operation, it must be ensured that all the
lubricant ducts to the bearing are filled with lubricant.
Gear teeth
If possible, the grease used should be the same as that used in
initial operation.
■ The gear teeth, especially the tooth root surface, must be
cleaned.
■ The gear teeth must be sprayed or brushed with grease.

Lubrication using lubrication cartridges

Lubrication cartridges allow continuous relubrication of slewing
rings up to 24 months. They are an independent greasing
system and are thus also suitable for retrofitting.
The cartridges are filled with grease and located directly on the
bearing or on the adjacent construction.
If the lubrication cartridges are applied to the adjacent
construction, the grease is fed to the bearing via lubricant
pipes.
Information on the use and handling of lubrication cartridges
can be obtained from the relevant manufacturers.

If leakage losses are unacceptable, measures such as
rotary shaft seals can be applied. Figure 1 · Dimensioning of the fitting space and the diameter
Seal profile materials
The standard material for the profiles is the synthetic elastomer
NBR 70. This material is characterised by:
■ good resistance to oils and greases
■ good wear resistance.
Operating temperature
INA seal profiles can be used at temperatures from –40 °C to
+80 °C.
For temperatures lower or higher than this range, extreme
environmental influences (e.g. ozone) or high speeds,
please consult Schaeffler. 132 476
Fitting of seal profiles

The area around the bearing seal must be designed such
that the seal profiles are not damaged during operation. Figure 2 · Pressing in and cutting of the profile in the fitting
Ensure that the profiles are not damaged while fitting space
the slewing ring.
Fit the profiles according to the following procedure:
■ clean the area where the seal is to be fitted.
■ press the seal profile carefully into the fitting space leaving an
excess length of approximately 5%
– e.g. with a blunt wooden wedge (Figure 2).
■ cut the profile to the exact length (Figure 2) –
ensure that the joint faces are even.
■ join the grease-free joint faces using a cyanacrylate adhesive

Design of bearing arrangements
INA slewing rings can, as a single bearing position (Figure 1),

transmit:
■ axial loads from both directions
■ radial loads Mk
■ tilting moment loads.
In order that these advantages can be utilised Fa
comprehensively, the adjacent construction must be of an
appropriate design.
Bearing rings must always be rigidly and uniformly
supported around their entire circumference and width.
Fr
The adjacent construction must be designed only in
accordance with the information in this section.
Fa
Any deviations from the specifications, material strength
and adjacent components will considerably reduce
the load carrying capacity and operating life of the
slewing rings.
Sealing of the bearing position

If the bearing arrangement is sealed by means of a seal
in the adjacent construction, observe the design guidelines
for seal profiles in the section Sealing, page 34.
132 518
The area around the bearing seal must be designed such
that the seal profiles are not damaged during operation.
Figure 1 · Load transmission –
Fixing screws axial, radial, tilting moment load
Screws of grade 10.9 are suitable for fixing the bearing rings
or clamping rings (see Fitting, page 46, Table 3) –
the dimensioning and tightening torque are dependent
on the bearing size.
Any deviations from the recommended size, grade and
number of screws will considerably reduce the load
carrying capacity and operating life of the bearings.
Permissible contact pressure

The permissible contact pressure under the screw heads and
nuts for the adjacent construction is:
■ for St37 = 260 N/mm2
■ for St52 = 420 N/mm2.
If these values are exceeded, quenched and tempered washers
must be used under the screw heads and nuts – see also
page 42.

Location by cylindrical pot
t
Slewing rings are screw mounted directly to the adjacent
construction through both bearing rings (Figure 2).
The adjacent construction must be flat and uniformly rigid,
while the connection between the bearing adjacent HT
components must be by force locking. For the upper and
lower adjacent construction, a cylindrical pot with a flange
ring has proved effective (Figure 2). s
The wall thickness t of the pot should be approximately one

third of the flange thickness s and the pot height HT should be
at least five times the flange thickness s (Figure 2). For a more
uniform rigidity of the bearing arrangement, thicker walls of the DW
pot and flange ring are more favourable than thin walls with ribs.
In order to achieve the most linear force flow possible, arrange
the pot precisely above or below the row of rolling elements.
DM
s
Dimensioning of the flange thickness
Flange rings should be dimensioned such that they
support the whole width of the bearing rings (Figure 2).

Design of bearing arrangements
Permissible flatness and perpendicularity deviation of

the adjacent construction ␦B
The screw mounting surfaces of the adjacent construction
must fulfil the following requirements:
■ the flatness deviation must not exceed the permissible
value B (Figure 4)
■ the perpendicularity deviation must not exceed the 0˚ 180˚
permissible value W (Figure 5).
Permissible flatness deviation

The flatness deviation B applies in the circumferential and 2
transverse direction (Figure 4):
■ in the circumferential direction, it can only be reached once 1
in a sector of 180°. The permissible curve is similar to a

Figure 5 · Permissible perpendicularity deviation

Fitting
Slewing rings must be handled with care before and during

assembly. Their function and operating life are also dependent
on the care taken in fitting.
Design of the assembly area

Machines, equipment, etc. that produce swarf or
generate dust must not be used in the immediate vicinity
of the assembly area.
The bearings must be protected against dust,
contamination, swarf, moisture, adhesives, etc.
Contamination will impair the function and operating
life of the bearings.
Bearings should be fitted in a workshop if possible. If this is not
possible, the fitting position and bearing should be protected
against contaminant from the environment.
It must be ensured that work surfaces are bright, clean and free
from fibres (e.g. plastic) and that lighting conditions are good.
Preparing the adjacent construction for fitting of the

bearings
The bores and edges of the adjacent components must be free
from burrs:
132 524
■ any burrs present must be removed using an oilstone
(Figure 1).
Figure 1 · Preparing the adjacent construction
The support surfaces for the bearing rings must be clean.
Cleaning (Figure 1):
t
■ apply cleaning agents using a brush or a suitable,
lint-free cloth.
■ remove any foreign matter and dry the surfaces.
Ensure that all adjacent components and lubrication HT
ducts are free from cleaning agents, solvents and
washing emulsions. The bearing seating surfaces can

Storage and storage life of slewing rings

Bearings should only be stored lying down,
never standing up (Figure 3).
The storage life of the bearings is limited by the storage life
of the grease. Experience shows that the greases with a mineral
oil base used can be stored for up to 3 years if the following
preconditions are met:
■ closed storage room
■ dry, clean rooms with temperatures between 0 ºC and
+40 ºC
■ relative atmospheric humidity not more than 65%
■ no influence by chemical agents such as
132 521
– vapours, gases, fluids.
After long storage periods, the frictional torque may
temporarily be higher than that of freshly greased bearings. Figure 3 · Storage of slewing rings
The lubricity of the grease may also have deteriorated.
Delivered condition of slewing rings

INA slewing rings are:
■ greased with a lithium complex soap grease KP2N–20
to DIN 51825
■ dry preserved using VCI paper.
Unpacking and transporting slewing rings

Perspiration from handling leads to corrosion. Hands must be
kept clean and dry; protective gloves should be worn if
necessary.
Bearings should not be removed from their original packaging
until immediately before assembly. If the original packaging is
132 470
damaged, check the condition of the bearing.

Large bearings should only be transported lying down if
Figure 4 · Transport of bearings
possible.
Heavy bearings must only be transported using a hoist
attached to the eye bolts or by means of textile slings (Figure 4).
Bearings must not be wrapped in a chain.
Bearings should never be supported at one point only
for lifting.

Cleaning of slewing rings
Any anti-corrosion coatings must be removed from the support
and contact surfaces of the bearing rings before the slewing
ring is fitted. Suitable cleaning agents include:
■ petroleum, diesel oil, commercially available grease solvents
(e.g. acetone, isopropanol).
The appropriate legal regulations relating to the use of
cleaning agents (manufacturer’s instructions and
regulations covering health and safety at work,
environmental protection, etc.) must be observed.
Cleaning agents must be disposed of correctly after use. 1
Cleaning:
Cleaning agents must not be allowed to penetrate the
raceway system of the slewing ring.
In slewing rings with gear teeth, the narrowest point
of the tooth set is marked in green at the tooth tip
(Figure 5). This marking must not be removed since
the tooth flank backlash is set at this point.
■ apply cleaning agents using a brush or a suitable, 2
lint-free cloth.
■ remove any foreign matter and dry the surfaces.
132 528
Hardness gap on slewing rings
Figure 5 · Narrowest point of tooth set
For the fitting of slewing rings, not only the marking on the tooth
tip but also the so-called hardness gap is important.
The hardness gap is the point between the start and end
of the raceway hardening. This point is indicated by (Figure 6):

■ a deformed or defective adjacent construction
■ errors in fitting of the bearings.
Due to the preload in the raceway system, the rotational
resistance is higher than in a bearing with clearance.
At higher speeds, a high preload can lead to generation
of significant heat in the bearing; if necessary tests
must be carried out with bearings preloaded to various
values.
Bearing temperature
After initial operation, the temperature in the bearing can
increase – in the case of grease lubrication, for example, until
the grease is evenly distributed in the bearing arrangement.
A further increase or unusually high temperatures may be
caused by one of the following:
■ the bearing is lubricated using an unsuitable grease
■ there is excessive lubricant in the bearing
■ the load on the bearing is excessively high
■ the bearings are fitted unevenly
■ the adjacent construction deviates from the specifications.

– if the rotational resistance must be particularly uniform
– where there are high requirements for accuracy and
rigidity of the bearing arrangement
■ have contact seals on both sides that protect the raceway XA
system against dust, contamination and moisture
■ are greased with a lithium complex soap grease KP2N–20
according to DIN 51825, but can also be lubricated
with oil
■ are suitable for operating temperatures from –25 °C to
+80 °C
