Tapered roller bearings are types of bearings that come with an inner ring, an outer ring, and use tapered rollers arranged between them as rolling elements that facilitate easier motion between two moving parts of a machine. They are angled in a way that the surfaces of the rollers converge at the axis of the bearing.

Introduction Tapered roller bearings are types of bearings that come with an inner ring, an outer ring, and use tapered rollers arranged between them as rolling elements that facilitate easier motion between two moving parts of a machine. They are angled in a way that the surfaces of the rollers converge at the axis of the bearing.
What Makes Them Different These bearings are different from other common types of bearing as they can handle either axial or radial loads. Available at an affordable price, SKF taper roller bearing are capable of handling large amounts of load in both directions.
Types of Tapered Roller Bearings Bearing manufacturers, like SKF, offer tapered roller bearings in mainly 4 categories: • Single Row Tapered Roller Bearings • Double Row Tapered Roller Bearings • Four Row Tapered Roller Bearings • Matched Tapered Roller Bearings
Applications Tapered roller bearings are commonly used for moderate speed and heavy duty applications where durability is a must. These bearings are used in back-to-back pairs because of their ability to support axial forces equally in both directions. Their most popular application is in vehicle wheel bearings to help cope simultaneously with large vertical (radial) and horizontal (axial) forces.
Benefits Benefits of using tapered roller bearings include: • They create less friction, noise, and vibrations. • They have a longer service life. • They have more operational reliability even under difficult conditions. • These bearings have running-in periods with reduced temperature peaks. • The components are separable and interchangeable, which makes them easy to mount and dismount. • They are easy to maintain.
Conclusion When it comes to buying tapered roller bearings, your purchase decision should always be based on the type of application where they would be installed.
