Tapered roller bearings from SKF carry radial and axial forces in a single direction and are built for demanding load cases. You will find them in gearboxes, wheel hubs, spindles and similar assemblies where combined forces have to be transmitted. MR Industrial Accessories supplies this line to customers across the United States, Canada, Mexico and South America, and helps you pin down the exact reference your equipment calls for.
Take a code such as 32938T102/DB31. The leading digits, 32938, point to the dimension series. The letter T is part of the designation, and the DB pair signals an arrangement of two matched bearings. When you request a quote, copy the code straight from the bearing or the drawing so nothing gets lost in translation.
These bearings show up in steel mills, cement plants, mining operations and food processing lines, as well as in gearboxes, conveyor rollers, overhead cranes and farm machinery. Machine tool spindles and the wheel hubs of industrial vehicles are other common homes for them. Because they take radial and axial load at once, they suit assemblies where the shaft sees forces in two directions.
Selection comes down to the radial and axial load the bearing will see, the running speed and the conditions around it. At mounting, verify support alignment and axial clearance, and match the lubricant to the application. A DB arrangement calls for careful preload setting, so follow the manufacturer's guidance for mounting and lubrication. Where contamination is a factor, look at the right sealing to keep the raceway and rollers protected.
Replacements often turn up under equivalent part numbers from other makers that share the same dimensions and load capacity. Interchangeability rests on bore diameter, outer diameter, width and contact angle. If you are holding a competitor's number, send it over and we will identify the matching SKF reference. The same goes for the exact number printed on your equipment.
To move forward, message us on WhatsApp or by email with the part number or the mounting dimensions. The team replies promptly, points you to equivalents and helps you confirm the right choice for the job.

Frequently asked questions
- What kind of loads does a tapered roller bearing take?
- It carries radial and axial loads in one direction. In a paired arrangement, axial forces in both directions can be handled, which is why gearboxes and wheel hubs are typical applications.
- How do I find the right part number to request a quote?
- Use the number stamped on the bearing or shown on the equipment drawing. Without it, send the bore, outer diameter and width measurements and we will quote the exact reference.
- Can an SKF bearing replace one from another brand?
- Yes, provided the main dimensions and load capacity line up. Bore, outer diameter and width are the basis for interchange. Send the original brand's number and we will give you the equivalent SKF reference.
