Tapered Roller Bearings
overview
Tapered Roller Bearings
KG Tapered Roller Bearings are specifically designed to handle combined radial and axial loads, making them ideal for applications that experience both types of forces simultaneously. With their conical geometry and high load-bearing capacity, they are a trusted choice for heavy-duty, high-performance industrial and automotive applications.
Features
- Handles Combined Loads : The tapered raceways allow these bearings to support both radial and axial loads efficiently—especially in one direction.
- High Load-Carrying Capacity : The line contact between rollers and raceways enables excellent support under heavy and shock loads.
- Adjustable Clearance : Axial clearance can be adjusted during mounting, allowing precise control over performance and preload.

Single Row Tapered Roller Bearings
Single row tapered roller bearings are engineered to support both radial and axial loads simultaneously. Their raceway geometry is designed so that the projection lines converge at a single point on the bearing axis, ensuring smooth rolling motion. This precise alignment minimizes frictional resistance, enhancing operational efficiency and extending bearing life.
Key Features
- Combined Load Support : They can handle both radial and axial (thrust) loads simultaneously, making them suitable for applications with combined loading conditions.
- Converging Raceway Geometry : The raceway angles are designed to converge at a single point on the bearing axis. This ensures optimal load distribution and smooth rolling motion.
- Low Friction and Long Life : The precise alignment minimizes friction, improving efficiency and extending the bearing’s service life.
