Tapered Roller Bearings SKF 32213

The SKF single-row tapered roller bearing 32213, measuring 65 × 120 × 32.75 mm, can accommodate high radial and unilateral axial loads simultaneously.

The 32213 tapered roller bearing is a separable roller bearing in standard design. The assembly consists of an inner ring with a guided set of rollers and a separate outer ring. Thanks to the tapered geometry of the rolling elements and raceways, the design can transmit high mechanical forces. Manufactured to tolerance class P0/PN or ABEC 1, it offers a defined standard precision for industrial applications.

What types of loads is the 32213 tapered roller bearing suitable for?

The bearing is designed for combined loads where radial forces and axial guiding forces act simultaneously in one direction. As a single tapered roller bearing can only accommodate axial loads on one side, in practice they are usually mounted in pairs facing each other in an X or O configuration. This allows axial forces to be supported from both sides. The temperature range specified for the component is from –30 to +120 degrees Celsius.

What are the key considerations when fitting the 32213 tapered roller bearing?

As the inner and outer rings can be fitted separately, pressing onto the 65 mm diameter shaft and fitting into the 120 mm diameter housing bore can be carried out independently of one another. The sheet steel cage guides the rolling elements evenly along the raceways. Due to the design, the required operating clearance or a specific preload is not specified in advance, but is adjusted during assembly by axially aligning the bearing rings.
