Classification | Tapered Roller Bearings |
Tapered roller bearings have the rolling elements under the form of a frustum of a cone.
They roll on tapered surfaces which, if it’s extended, converge towards a single point on thebearing axis. The rollers are guided
tangentially by the cage and axially by the big rib of the outer ring, on which theyhave point contact. As between roller and raceways
there is linear contact, tapered roller bearings can take heavy radial loads. They can also take heavy axial or combined loads, depending
on the contact angle caused by the tapered rolling elements. The contact angle is the angle of the outer raceway generatrix.
