Product Overview: The 32216 Tapered Roller Bearing
The 32216 Tapered Roller Bearing is a robust and reliable component designed to handle significant combined radial and axial loads. With a bore diameter of 80mm, an outer diameter of 140mm, and a thickness of 35.25mm, this bearing is an integral part of our 32200 Series within the broader Tapered Roller Bearings category. Its unique design features tapered inner and outer ring raceways and tapered rollers, which allows for true rolling motion and low friction. This construction makes the 32216 ideal for applications that demand high load-carrying capacity and rigidity.
As a leading supplier of industrial components, we ensure our 32216 bearings meet stringent quality standards for performance and durability. The separable design, where the inner ring with the roller and cage assembly (cone) can be mounted separately from the outer ring (cup), simplifies installation, removal, and maintenance procedures. This versatility makes it a preferred choice for a wide array of demanding industrial and automotive applications.
Key Features of the 32216 Bearing
- High Load Capacity: Engineered to accommodate heavy radial and single-direction axial loads simultaneously.
- Separable Design: The cone and cup are separable, which facilitates easier mounting, dismounting, and inspection.
- Low Friction Operation: The tapered design ensures true rolling motion, minimizing friction and heat generation during operation.
- Enhanced Rigidity: Capable of supporting high loads, which contributes to the overall stiffness and stability of the bearing arrangement.
- Durable Construction: Manufactured from high-quality, clean bearing steel for extended service life and reliability under harsh conditions.
- Versatile Mounting: Can be mounted in pairs (e.g., back-to-back or face-to-face) to handle axial loads in both directions.
Common Applications
- Automotive Transmissions: Commonly used in gearboxes and differentials for cars, trucks, and buses.
- Industrial Gearboxes: Provides reliable support for gears and shafts in heavy-duty industrial machinery.
