Product Overview: The 575/572 Inch Tapered Roller Bearing
The 575/572 bearing is a single-row, inch-series Tapered Roller Bearing designed for heavy-duty applications that require managing both radial and axial (thrust) loads. This robust component features a separable design, with the inner ring and roller assembly (cone, part number 575) and the outer ring (cup, part number 572) being mountable independently. With a bore diameter of 88.9mm, an outer diameter of 152.4mm, and a total width of 38.1mm, the 575/572 is engineered to provide reliable performance in demanding industrial and automotive environments. Its tapered geometry ensures true rolling motion and even load distribution, minimizing friction and wear for an extended service life.
