Tapered Roller Bearings SKF 32032 X

The SKF 32032 X tapered roller bearing accommodates combined radial and axial loads with standardised main dimensions of 160 × 240 × 51 mm.

The 32032 X tapered roller bearing is a single-row rolling bearing in the SKF Explorer series. The design comprises a flangeless outer ring and an inner ring with a guided set of rollers. This product is supplied as a complete tapered roller bearing with a bore of 160 mm, an outer diameter of 240 mm and a width of 51 mm. Thanks to the tapered design of the raceways and rolling elements, the component transmits simultaneously occurring radial forces and single-sided axial forces in mechanical engineering.

What loads can the 32032 X tapered roller bearing withstand?

Tapered roller bearings of this type transmit high radial forces in conjunction with axial forces acting in one direction. As a single tapered roller bearing can, by design, only accommodate axial forces from one direction, they are usually fitted in pairs in mechanical assemblies in an O or X configuration. The second bearing acts as an axial counter-support on the shaft. The contact angle of the raceways determines the ratio of the axial loads that can be accommodated to the radial loads.

What are the characteristics of a sheet steel cage and tolerance class P0/PN?

The integrated sheet steel cage guides the rolling elements along the raceways and prevents direct contact between the rollers. This cage design is suitable for standard lubricating oils and greases and covers a temperature range from –30 to +120 degrees Celsius. Thanks to manufacture to tolerance class P0/PN (corresponding to ABEC 1), the roller bearing is suitable for standardised fits on shafts and in housing bores in industrial applications.
