Tapered roller bearings are a type of rolling element bearing designed to handle both radial and axial loads by providing a conical shape to the rollers. Este diseño permite que los rodamientos soporten cargas axiales y radiales pesadas y se usa comúnmente en aplicaciones como cubos de ruedas de automóviles., cajas de cambios, y otra maquinaria. There are various types of tapered roller bearings, and they can be classified based on different factors such as cone and cup design, tipo de jaula, and precision class.
Tapered roller bearings types
Single-Row Tapered Roller Bearings
These bearings consist of a single cone (inner ring) and cup (outer ring). They are the most basic and widely used type of tapered roller bearings. They can support both radial and axial loads in one direction.
Double-Row Tapered Roller Bearings
Double-row tapered roller bearings have two rows of rollers arranged in a back-to-back configuration. This design increases the axial load-carrying capacity and provides high stiffness. These bearings are commonly used in heavy-duty applications.
Four-Row Tapered Roller Bearings
Four-row tapered roller bearings have four rows of rollers arranged in two inner and two outer races. They are used in heavy machinery, such as rolling mills, where high radial and axial loads are present.
