Taper Roller Bearings

If you are in need of mechanical elements to support heavy radial and axial loads, you may want to consider using Taper Roller Bearings. Taper Roller Bearings are another type of Roller Bearing that has been designed to support heavy radial and axial loads in a single direction. On the other hand, two-row and four-row designed Taper Roller Bearings are capable of handling axial and radial loads, in both directions.

Highly accurate, this type of Bearing is specially designed to afford dual load ability, medium speeds, and small clearance. Taper Roller Bearings have four major components: Cone (inner ring), Cup (outer ring), rolling elements (taper rollers), and roller retainer (cage).

Taper Roller Bearings are able to handle both radial and axial loads because of taper angles (which actually refer to the cup angle). Depending on the contact, the angles can be classified into three: Normal angle,  medium angle, and steep angle. It is important to note that the steeper the taper angles, the better the ability of the Taper Bearing to carry the load.
