High Load Double Row Tapered Roller Bearings for Heavy Machinery

Sep 02,2026

What are Double Row Tapered Roller Bearings?

Double row tapered roller bearings are specialized rolling-element bearings featuring two rows of tapered rollers arranged side-by-side to support very heavy radial loads and bidirectional axial loads simultaneously.

Inner ring and outer ring can be integral or separable according to model selection.Precision grades cover P0,P6,P5 and P4.Inner diameter ranges from 150 mm to 1778 mm,outer diameter spans 210 mm to 2159 mm and width dimension varies from 86 mm to 393.7 mm.

Bearing rings and rolling elements can adopt GCr15 or SUS440C material.Cage options include brass,Nylon 66 and stamped steel.Multiple sealing solutions are available.Open type needs regular external lubrication and fits clean heavy-load medium-low speed working conditions.Contact rubber seals 2RS or ZZ deliver dustproof and splash-proof performance for dusty humid industrial sites.Non-contact seals Z or RS produce low friction and suit medium-high speed operation.

Standard product delivery takes 7 to 15 working days.Custom manufacturing service supports non-standard dimension adjustment,taper angle modification,corrosion resistant material upgrade,special lubrication for high or low temperature surroundings and seal structure optimization.Custom lead time needs further confirmation with the manufacturer.

The Features of Double Row Tapered Roller Bearings

High load carrying capacity
Double row tapered roller bearings are suitable for heavy radial and axial loads.The axial load carrying capacity of tapered roller bearings increases with increasing contact angle α.The size of the contact angle,which is usually between 10° and 30°,is related to the calculation factor e (from the product tables):the larger the value of e,the larger the contact angle.

Axial loads in both directions
Double row tapered roller bearings locate the shaft in both directions with a specific axial clearance or preload. 

High stiffness
Double row tapered roller bearings provide a stiff bearing arrangement.

Low friction

The optimized roller end design and surface finish on the flange promote lubricant film formation,resulting in lower friction.This also reduces frictional heat and flange wear.In addition,the bearings can better maintain preload and run at reduced noise levels.

Long service life
The crowned raceway profiles of basic design bearings and the logarithmic raceway profiles of SKF Explorer bearings optimize the load distribution along the contact surfaces,reduce stress peaks at the roller ends,and reduce the sensitivity to misalignment and shaft deflection compared with conventional straight raceway profiles.

Enhanced operational reliability
Optimized surface finish on the contact surfaces of the rollers and raceways supports the formation of a hydrodynamic lubricant film.

The Applications of Double Row Tapered Roller Bearings

Heavy Industrial Gearboxes & Transmission Systems

Reduction Gearboxes:Supports high torque,helical/bevel gear reaction forces,and shaft deflections.

Mining Gear Drives & Tunnelling Machines:Handles extreme shock loads,vibration,and reversing thrust loads.
