What is the equivalent of a NJ304J bearing?

The NJ304J is a 20×52×15mm cylindrical roller bearing with verified equivalents across multiple brands: NSK NJ304W, NTN NJ304ET2, SKF NJ 304 ECP, Timken NJ304EM. All equivalents share the same bore, outer diameter, width, and load ratings.

What are the dimensions of a NJ304J bearing?

The NJ304J bearing has a bore diameter of 20mm, outer diameter of 52mm, and width of 15mm. It has a dynamic load rating of 31.5 kN, static load rating of 26.9 kN, and weighs 176g. Maximum speed with grease lubrication is 11,000 rpm.

Can I replace a FAG NJ304J with a NSK equivalent?

Yes. FAG and NSK bearings with the same ISO designation are dimensionally interchangeable. The NJ304J (20×52×15mm) can be replaced with the equivalent NSK part number as long as the seal type (open) and clearance class (CN) match. Always verify load ratings and speed limits for your specific application.
