TAPERED ROLLER BEARINGS

Tapered roller bearing are designed so the tapered vertex of the raceway surfaces of the inner and outer rings and rollers converge at one point on the centerline of the bearing.

Due to this design feature, rollers move along the center of compound force of the inner and outer raceway surfaces inner ring. A large variety of these bearing, including single, double, and four row arrangements, are in use both in metric and inch series.

In general, pressed cages are used in tapered roller bearing. However for large sized bearing machined or pin type cages are also used; for small sized bearing molded resin cages are also used.

If bearing load is light during operation or the ratio of axial to radial load for duplex and double row bearing exceeds the value of "e", slipping develops between the rollers and raceways sometimes resulting in smearing. The mass of rollers and cages particularly tends to be large for large tapered roller bearing. For details please contact ZMZ Manufacturing.
