SKF tapered roller bearings are separable assemblies: an inner cone with rollers and an outer cup. They take radial and axial loads in one direction, so they are normally installed in pairs face-to-face when a shaft has combined demands. Typical applications include gearboxes, transmission cases, vehicle hubs and industrial equipment subject to significant forces.

The part number combines a series number with a bore number. In this family, a letter A and a slash appear before the series. Codes such as 387 A/382/Q and 14137 A/14276/Q follow that pattern: the first block is the cone, the second is the cup, and the letter Q closes the designation. When ordering a replacement, provide the complete code as it appears on the drawing or on the part.

In South American industry, these bearings appear in reduction gearboxes, road and agricultural machine transmissions, wheel hubs, machine tool spindles and material handling equipment. They also serve in process pumps, heavy fans and conveyors where the shaft carries radial load and axial thrust at the same time.

Proper selection requires defining the radial and axial load, the rotation speed and the mounting type. These bearings are usually mounted in pairs, with clearance or preload adjusted to the equipment. Lubrication may be grease or oil, and cone-to-cup alignment must be careful to avoid parasitic forces. If the shaft operates with misalignment, consider housings that absorb that movement.

When replacing a tapered roller bearing, the common practice is to cross-reference the original brand code with the SKF one. Series and bore numbers correspond between manufacturers, although suffixes may differ. If you have another brand's code or an unidentified part, send us the shaft size and main dimensions via WhatsApp or email, and we will identify the compatible equivalent.
