Product Overview: The 30215 Tapered Roller Bearing
The 30215 Tapered Roller Bearing is a robust and versatile single-row bearing, a key component in our Tapered Roller Bearings collection and part of the popular 30200 Series. With principal dimensions of a 75mm bore diameter, 130mm outer diameter, and 27.25mm thickness, this bearing is engineered to handle substantial combined (radial and axial) loads in one direction. Its unique tapered design, featuring conical rollers and raceways, allows for true rolling motion and low friction during operation, making it an essential part for a wide array of demanding industrial and automotive applications.
The design of the 30215 allows for the cup (outer ring) and the cone assembly (inner ring, rollers, and cage) to be mounted separately, simplifying installation, inspection, and maintenance procedures. This bearing's ability to manage high loads and provide operational reliability makes it a preferred choice in gearboxes, axle systems, and heavy machinery where durability and precision are critical.
Key Features of the 30215 Bearing
- Combined Load Management: Expertly designed to accommodate both heavy radial and axial loads in a single direction.
- Separable Design: The cone and cup can be mounted independently, which simplifies the assembly and maintenance process.
- Low Friction Operation: The logarithmic contact profile between rollers and raceways minimizes stress peaks and reduces friction, leading to lower operating temperatures and longer service life.
- High Load-Carrying Capacity: Constructed from high-quality bearing steel, it is built to withstand significant stress and demanding operational conditions.
- Axial Clearance Adjustment: Allows for the setting of axial clearance during mounting to meet specific application requirements.
- Enhanced Rigidity: Capable of supporting high loads, which contributes to the overall stiffness of the shaft and housing arrangement.
Common Applications
- Automotive Transmissions & Drivetrains: Widely used in gearboxes, differentials, and axle assemblies.
- Vehicle Wheel Hubs: Provides reliable support for wheels on cars, trucks, and trailers.
- Agricultural Machinery: Essential for implements, tractors, and harvesting equipment that operate under heavy loads.
- Industrial Gearboxes: Ensures smooth and efficient power transmission in various industrial machinery.
