Tapered Roller Bearing Supplier In Mumbai | Sadguru International In Mumbai
TAPERED ROLLER BEARING TIPS
It’s not uncommon to see a farm trailer or wagon with the bearing grease cap either missing or damaged. The grease cap serves the dual purpose of keeping dirt and moisture from the bearing that would accelerate wear and also keep any grease that might liquefy due to heat escaping.
If the grease softens, it will be stored in the cap where it has the potential to work back into the rollers as it solidifies and the wheel is set in motion. The grease cap should fit snugly and be fully seated against the hub.
It is important to note that tapered roller bearings are predominantly sold as individual components. Therefore it is important to know the part number of both the cup and the cone
As they will most often differ and there are often many cup/ cone combinations available. While feasible to replace only the cup or the cone when replacing a tapered roller bearing, it is not recommended as it greatly decreases bearing life.
On the positive side, worn wheel bearings tend to have more end play than normal when suspended from a lift. Excessive end play can be detected by grabbing the wheel at the six and twelve o’clock positions and forcefully tipping it in and out. Unless otherwise specified, most sealed bearings should have no noticeable end play.
We supply wide range of tapered roller bearings, which consists of components such as a cone or inner ring, cup or outer ring, tapered rollers or rolling elements and cage or roller retainer.
The taper angles allow the tapered roller bearings to handle a combination of radial and thrust loads. These tapered roller bearings are supplied using superior grades of steel that ensure the durability of the product and hassle-free usage. They find varied applications in cars, light and vehicles, agricultural equipment, wheel assembly etc.
Prior to mounting new bearings, be sure to inspect both the shaft and bearing housing to ensure mounting surfaces are clean and free of burrs, dirt, and other debris. The presence of debris on the bearing mounting surfaces may lead to improper seating of the bearing, thus negatively impacting bearing life.
Single row tapered roller bearings are generally mounted as opposed pairs so that thrust loads in either direction can be supported. It is recommended that both bearings in an opposed pair are replaced at the same time.
Always follow manufacturer specified bearing adjustment procedures. Overtightening leads to excess preload and can cause early failure. Under-tightening leads to excessive endplay, thereby reducing bearing life.
Always keep the bearing covered (or in the original packaging) until you are ready to install it. Bearings can become contaminated with dirt or other debris, which can lead to damage to the rolling surfaces, causing noise and reduction in bearing life.
Once removed for inspection, a good greased bearing should have a polished, slightly cross-hatched surface. If the bearing has been operating with excessive end play, the tapered rollers have become barrel-shaped and will not hold the hub perpendicular to the axle. If the polish is gone and the cross-hatch is worn away, the bearing should be discarded.
