Bearings
This bearing is a single row, pre-set tapered roller
bearing capable of accepting thrust loads and radial
loads in any combination.
The tapered roller bearing consists of four basic parts:
the cup or outer race, the cone or inner race, the
tapered rollers which roll freely between the cup and
cone, and the cage which serves as a retainer to
maintain the proper spacing between the tapered
rollers grouped around the cone.
Wheel Bearings
This bearing is a single row, pre-set tapered roller
bearing capable of accepting thrust loads in either
direction and radial loads in any combination.
The tapered roller bearing consists of five basic parts:
the cup or outer race, the cup rib ring, the cone or
inner race, the tapered rollers which roll freely
between the cup and cone, and the cage which
serves as a retainer to maintain the proper spacing
between the tapered rollers grouped around the cone.
When the bearing is manufactured, the cup and rib
ring are bonded together with an adhesive to facilitate
bearing handling and installation. Since the cup and
rib ring are clamped together in the axle housing,
there is no need for a permanent bond. When the
bearing is serviced the cup will usually be separated
from the rib ring.
