Handle Larger Loads With Double Row Taper Roller Bearing
Double Row Taper Roller Bearing
Among the types of thrust roller bearings, tapered roller bearings are the best ones. This is stated so because the rolling elements in a taper roller bearing can enable support for both axial forces and radial forces as well. The inner raceway and the outer raceway of a tapered roller bearing is made in such a way that they appear as segments of cones.
Even the rollers in a taper roller bearing are in the shape of segments of cones. This structure helps in avoiding slipping when the elements roll over each other and with ease. This phenomenon is termed as the “pumpkin seed effect”. These conical shapes are required and put to use in such a way so as to larger axial forces can be taken by the bearing.
Double row taper roller bearing is a version of a tapered roller bearing wherein there would be two rows of such semi-conical elements enabling to...
