The two matched single row bearings with face-to-face arrangement (X arrangement) are based on single row tapered roller bearings of popular dimensions. Their roller rows are arranged face-to-face (load lines converge towards the bearing axis) and can withstand tilting moments and axial loads in both directions to achieve a certain bearing stiffness. They are commonly used in the mining industry in gearboxes, lifting equipment, mills and machines such as tunnel boring machines.
- High radial load carrying capacity
- Designed to withstand bi-directional axial loads
- Can withstand tilting moments
- Relatively high stiffness
- With intermediate outer ring spacer
