SKF tapered roller bearings are built to carry radial and axial loads at the same time. The angled raceways and rollers make line contact, which spreads the load and suits equipment where forces are heavy and misalignment is limited. MR Industrial Accessories LLC supplies this line to customers across the United States, Canada, Mexico and South America, and can help you match the right part number to your application.

A tapered roller bearing designation usually pairs a series number with a bore number, and a slash often separates the two. Take 528 R/522: the digits before the slash identify the cup and cone series, while the slash divides the cone code from the cup code. Each piece in one assembly may come from a different series, so read the full code before ordering. If you are unsure, send the complete designation and we will quote it.

These bearings appear in gearboxes, drive shafts, conveyor rollers, machine tools and earthmoving equipment. Because they handle combined loads, they fit machinery where the force direction shifts or varies, such as industrial vehicle wheels and lifting systems. You will find them in metalworking, mining, food processing and agro-industrial plants.

Selection starts with the mounting arrangement. Tapered roller bearings are normally installed in pairs, face-to-face or matched, so they can take axial loads in both directions. The cone and cup must be aligned precisely; angular misalignment shortens service life. Lubrication and sealing also matter, particularly in dusty or damp areas. Follow the manufacturer's instructions for mounting and preload.

Cross-references exist between brands, but always check dimensions and tolerances before replacing a component. If you have a part number from another maker, we can help you find the SKF equivalent or a suitable option from another brand we carry. Interchangeability is not always direct, so consider the series, contact angle and operating conditions. Send us your application details and we will review them.
