Product Overview: The 395/394A Tapered Roller Bearing
The 395/394A bearing is a high-performance, single-row Inch Tapered Roller Bearing designed to manage significant radial and axial loads simultaneously. This versatile bearing consists of two main separable components: the cone (inner ring assembly, 395) and the cup (outer ring, 394A). This design simplifies assembly and allows for precise adjustment of internal clearance or preload during installation. With a bore diameter of 50.8mm, an outer diameter of 112.712mm, and a thickness of 30.162mm, the 395/394A is a robust solution for a wide range of demanding applications, particularly in automotive and industrial machinery.
As a key component in our extensive Tapered Roller Bearings catalog, the 395/394A is manufactured from high-quality bearing steel to ensure durability and reliability under heavy-duty conditions. Its tapered geometry creates a line contact between the rollers and raceways, providing superior load-carrying capacity compared to ball bearings of similar size.
Features of the 395/394A Bearing
- Two-Part Construction: Features a separable cone (395) and cup (394A) for simplified mounting, dismounting, and maintenance procedures.
- High Load Capacity: Engineered to accommodate heavy combined (radial and axial) loads in a single direction.
- Inch Series Design: Manufactured to standard inch dimensions, ensuring interchangeability and suitability for a wide range of equipment.
- Durable Material: Constructed from high-carbon chromium bearing steel for exceptional hardness, wear resistance, and long service life.
- Line Contact Geometry: The tapered rollers and raceways create a line contact, distributing loads evenly and reducing stress concentrations.
- Adjustable Preload: Allows for precise setting of internal clearance or preload to optimize performance for specific application requirements.
