Schaeffler Tapered Roller Bearings

Tapered roller bearings are rolling element bearings that support axial forces as well as radial forces.

FAG’s tapered roller bearings have a broad range of speeds which enables them to support high radial and axial loads. Efficient at supporting forces, they ensure a precise and rigid shaft guidance system due to the large effective distance between bearings. Tapered roller bearings can be adjusted and dismantled, which makes mounting easy. Also available in X-life quality, increasing the overall efficiency of the machine and equipment.

Tapered roller bearings are particularly suitable where:

  • High radial loads occur
  • High axial loads act on one side 
  • Combined loads must be supported (radial and axial forces acting simultaneously) 
  • Precise axial guidance of the shaft is required (locating bearing function)
  • The bearing arrangement must have very high axial rigidity
  • The bearing position is operated clearance-free or under preload (single bearings are adjusted against each other) 
  • High running accuracy is required
  • The load carrying capacity of angular contact ball bearings is no longer sufficient and the higher speed suitability of angular contact ball bearings is not required
  • The bearings are not required to compensate misalignments
  • The design objective comprises compact, rigid and economical bearing arrangements with a high load carrying capacity

Variants of Tapered roller bearings include:

  • Single-row tapered roller bearings
  • Double-row tapered roller bearings
  • Four-row tapered roller bearings
  • Axial tapered roller bearings
