Single row tapered roller bearings SKF single row tapered roller bearings are designed to accommodate combined loads, i.e. simultaneously acting radial and axial loads. The projection lines of the raceways meet at a common point on the bearing axis to provide a true rolling action and therefore low frictional moments during operation.Our single row tapered roller bearings are designed and manufactured to handle both axial and radial loads. The standard Cage for American Tapered Roller Bearings is a “pin-type” design that has proven to be very successful in applications that experience very high loads and high speeds. No suffix is used on our bearing number for this cage, while other types of cages have their own suffix code when used.

Tapered roller bearings typically have a running-in period, during which a conventional design tapered roller bearing experiences a significant amount of friction, resulting in wear. This effect is noticed as a temperature spike.
