Tapered roller bearings are produced by SKF in many designs and sizes to match their many uses. These can be grouped as follows
These are described in four separate sections under the appropriate headings.
SKF also manufactures sealed, greased and pre-adjusted units based on tapered roller bearings, such as
Tapered roller bearings have tapered inner and outer ring

bearing axis. Their design makes tapered roller bearings
particularly suitable for the accommodation of combined (radial and
axial) loads. The axial load carrying capacity of the bearings is
largely determined by the contact angle
