Features & Benefits

  • Rollway tapered thrust roller bearings are available in a wide variety of options:
    • Inch dimensions
      • 4" to 16" bore
      • 8 ½" to 34" OD
    • Two design styles: TTHD and T-Flat
  • Tapered rollers create a true rolling motion with the vertex of the conical section intersecting the bearing axis and will have a higher dynamic capacity than a similar sized cylindrical roller thrust bearing.
  • Large spherical end of the roller is counterbored to improve lubrication between the roller and guide rib.
  • Plates and rollers are made of carburized grade steel hardened to Rockwell C 58 min., with the core hardness maintained at Rockwell C 30 min.
  • Thrust plates are accurately ground for flatness and parallelism of roller riding and backing surfaces.
  • Rollers are crowned for optimum contact stress patterns by reducing the end stress between the roller and the thrust plates.
  • Retainers are machined from a single piece of centrifugally cast brass and roller pockets are accurately machined at right angles to the thrust force, which will be applied to the bearing.
  • Custom bearing designs available to meet your application needs.
