How much do you know about tapered roller bearings?

What are tapered roller bearings used for?

Pairs of tapered roller bearings are used in car and vehicle wheel bearings where they must cope simultaneously with large vertical (radial) and horizontal (axial) forces. Tapered roller bearings are commonly used for moderate speed, heavy duty applications where durability is required.

Which is the most preferred use of taper roller bearings?

The rollers are tapered so that they can handle both radial and thrust loads. These bearings are typically used in heavy-duty industrial applications such as construction equipment, mining equipment, and paper mills. These bearings must be properly lubricated to ensure smooth operation and long life.
