Tapered Roller Bearings – Axial and Radial Load in One Package

For rotating shafts that take axial force, tapered roller bearings are the go-to. Designed to carry loads in both directions, they’re commonly used in wheels, diffs and hub assemblies — and they last longer under shock than standard ball types.

  • Available in matched cup & cone sets
  • Common trailer hub sizes stocked
  • Metric and imperial ranges
  • High-load ratings for transport and heavy equipment

Needle Roller Bearings – Compact, High-Load, Low-Friction

When space is tight but the load isn’t, needle roller bearings deliver. These slimline bearings pack a high load rating in a narrow profile — ideal for transmissions, clutch setups, and equipment where every mm matters.

  • Full complement and caged types
  • Inner ring and drawn cup versions
  • Perfect for gearboxes, driveshafts and linkages
  • High-speed, low-friction designs

Cylindrical Roller Bearings – Built for Serious Radial Loads

If you’re dealing with pure radial load and serious torque, cylindrical roller bearings are made for it. With a larger contact surface than ball bearings, these are built to carry the load without deforming under pressure.

  • Multiple row designs available
  • Removable inner/outer rings for easy fitment
  • Used in large motors, pumps and plant machinery
  • Available in steel cage or brass for high-speed use

Frequently Asked Questions

Tapered bearings handle both radial and axial loads. Cylindrical bearings are better for high radial loads only, and usually don’t cope well with thrust.

Only if your housing, shaft and load requirements match. Roller bearings have different fitment and load profiles.

They often do, especially under high load. Always use the correct high-pressure bearing grease or oil depending on RPM and heat.
