Product Overview: The 32020 Tapered Roller Bearing
The 32020 Tapered Roller Bearing is a robust and high-capacity component, engineered to manage both radial and axial loads simultaneously. As a key part of our 32000 Series, this bearing features a separable design, with the inner ring and roller assembly (cone) and the outer ring (cup) being mountable independently. This design simplifies installation, inspection, and maintenance procedures. The tapered geometry of the rollers and raceways creates a design that is ideal for applications involving heavy and combined loads.
Manufactured to precise industry standards with dimensions of 100x150x35mm, the 32020 bearing is a staple in various demanding industrial and automotive applications. Its ability to handle significant thrust loads in one direction makes it indispensable for gearboxes, axle systems, and heavy machinery. Explore our comprehensive collection of Tapered Roller Bearings to find the perfect solution for your heavy-duty needs.
Key Features of the 32020 Bearing
- Combined Load Capacity: Expertly designed to accommodate high radial and axial (thrust) loads in a single direction.
- Separable Design: The cone (inner ring, rollers, cage) and cup (outer ring) can be mounted separately, facilitating easier assembly and maintenance.
- Tapered Geometry: The conical shape of the rollers and raceways ensures true rolling motion and low friction, even under heavy loads.
- High Rigidity: Provides a rigid bearing arrangement, essential for applications requiring high precision and stability.
- Durable Construction: Made from high-purity, hardened bearing steel for exceptional durability and extended service life.
- Line Contact: The line contact between rollers and raceways allows for greater load distribution and higher load-carrying capacity compared to ball bearings.
Common Applications of 32020 Bearings
- Automotive Transmissions: Used extensively in gearboxes, differentials, and pinion shafts.
- Vehicle Wheel Hubs: A common choice for car, truck, and trailer wheel assemblies.
- Industrial Gearboxes: Provides reliable support for gears and shafts in heavy-duty industrial reducers.
- Agricultural Machinery: Found in tractors, harvesters, and other farm equipment where durability is crucial.
- Construction Equipment: Essential for machinery like cranes, excavators, and cement mixers.
- Rolling Mills: Used in steel and metal processing machinery to support rollers under extreme pressure.
