Tapered Roller Bearings SKF 31317

The SKF 31317 single-row tapered roller bearing (85 × 180 × 44.5 mm) accommodates high radial and unilateral axial loads in industrial bearing arrangements.

The SKF 31317 tapered roller bearing is a separable roller bearing in the Explorer performance class, designed for demanding industrial applications. With a bore of 85 mm, an outside diameter of 180 mm and a width of 44.5 mm, this single-row bearing accommodates both radial loads and unidirectional axial forces. Thanks to the separate mounting of the inner ring with roller set and the outer ring, the bearing facilitates installation in gearboxes or machine housings. The design complies with the standard tolerance class P0/PN or ABEC 1.

What are the industrial applications of the 31317 tapered roller bearing?

The 31317 tapered roller bearing is used where combined loads occur on rotating shafts. Typical applications can be found in general mechanical engineering and in gearbox designs. As a single tapered roller bearing, by its very design, can only support axial forces in one direction, it is usually fitted in pairs in an X or O arrangement with a second mating bearing. This arrangement allows the required operating clearance to be set.

What features do the sheet steel cage and the Explorer design offer?

The integrated sheet steel cage guides the tapered rollers and is suitable for operating temperatures ranging from –30 to +120 °C. With this open bearing design, users can specifically tailor the lubricant and external sealing to the operating environment. The SKF Explorer design features an optimised internal geometry, which aids the formation of a lubricating film. The tolerance class P0/PN or ABEC 1 also enables a precise replacement fit during maintenance.
