Linde Forklift Tapered Roller Bearing — OEM 0009247333 for Models 316/351/353/394/396

This OEM tapered roller bearing (0009247333) is designed for Linde forklift models 316, 351, 353, 394, and 396 — a different bearing from the 0009247360 which fits the 1219-1283 series. The key difference between these two Linde bearing part numbers is the dimensional specification: the 0009247333 is typically used in the mast roller and carriage guide applications where the bearing must handle high radial loads from the mast channel contact pressure combined with the thrust loads from the carriage side-shift forces, whereas the 0009247360 is primarily a drivetrain bearing for the differential and wheel hub assemblies. The bearing is a matched cone-and-cup set manufactured from case-hardened bearing steel (100Cr6 / AISI 52100 equivalent) with a surface hardness of HRC 60-64 and a case depth of 0.8-1.2mm — the deep case hardening provides the wear resistance needed for the cyclic loading pattern of mast roller bearings that experience full load reversal with every lift cycle (approximately 50-100 cycles per shift in a typical warehouse operation).

Tapered roller bearing preload for mast roller applications is set differently than for drivetrain applications. Mast roller bearings operate with a slight preload of 0.02-0.04mm — tighter than the 0.01-0.03mm used in wheel hubs because mast rollers must eliminate all radial clearance to prevent the carriage from rocking during high lifts. A mast carriage that rocks by even 0.5mm at the fork tips translates to 15-20mm of load movement at a 6-meter lift height, making precise pallet placement nearly impossible. When installing this bearing in a Linde mast roller, the bearing cup must be pressed into the roller bore with an interference fit of 0.01-0.03mm — if the cup spins in the bore (clearance fit), it will wear the bore oversize within 500 hours and require roller replacement. The cone is a slip fit on the roller shaft (0.005-0.015mm clearance) to allow for thermal expansion. Both the cup and cone must be packed with a molybdenum disulfide-fortified grease (NLGI #2 with 3% MoS2) because mast rollers operate under boundary lubrication conditions — the slow oscillating motion of the roller as the mast channels rise does not generate a full hydrodynamic oil film, and the MoS2 additive provides dry-film lubrication during the boundary phase. Common failure symptoms: carriage rocking or rattling during lift operation (worn mast roller bearing allowing radial clearance), uneven wear on one side of the mast channel (misaligned roller from a cocked bearing cup), and a rhythmic thumping noise from the mast that occurs at the same carriage height during every lift cycle (spalled roller or race surface at a specific load point).

This bearing fits Linde forklift models 316, 351, 353, 394, and 396. Verify OEM number 0009247333 and compare the bearing dimensions against the 0009247360 (drivetrain bearing) before ordering — these two bearings are dimensionally different and NOT interchangeable.
