Dimension Notes
For tapered roller bearings the width above is the overall width T = 57.15 mm. The inner-ring width B (and the cup width C) are printed by each manufacturer and appear with the brand values below.
Manufacturer Ratings
Load-rating symbols are printed as each manufacturer writes them in its own catalogue, so the same quantity can carry a different symbol from brand to brand.
| Brand | Dynamic Load Rating | Static Load Rating | Fatigue Load Limit |
|---|---|---|---|
| SKF M 349547/510 | 698 kN | 1400 kN | 125 kN |
Speed Ratings
Speed limits depend on sealing and lubrication, and definitions differ by manufacturer. Contact-sealed variants are normally greased for life and run slower. Always confirm the exact variant in the manufacturer's table.
| Brand | Grease open / shielded | Oil open | Reference | Limiting |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| SKF M 349547/510 | — | — | 1,300 r/min | 1,600 r/min |

About This Type
Tapered roller bearings carry combined radial and axial loads in one axial direction. Because a radial load induces an axial component, they are almost always mounted in opposed pairs. Typical applications include vehicle wheel hubs, gearboxes and differentials, conveyor rollers, agricultural and construction machinery, and machine-tool spindles.
Because a single bearing carries axial load in one axial direction only, two bearings are mounted back-to-back or face-to-face so that each carries the axial load in its own axial direction. For a given bore size, a heavier dimension series (for example 303 instead of 302) provides higher load ratings at the cost of limiting speed and envelope size, while a large-contact-angle series such as 313 is chosen when the axial share of the load is high. The CN/C2/C3 radial-clearance groups do not apply to single-row tapered roller bearings: running clearance or preload is set by the mounting adjustment, not by a clearance suffix.
The cone (inner ring with rollers) and the cup (outer ring) are separable and are mounted separately. Axial clearance or preload is set during installation — by shims, a shaft nut, or a threaded adjustment — and largely determines bearing life: too loose runs noisily and wears faster; too tight overheats. Cones and cups are matched sets; do not interchange parts between bearings, and recheck the setting after the first few hours of operation.
Series note: This bearing uses inch-series part numbering (cone/cup designations such as 15123/15245): the first designation identifies the cone, the second the cup, and boundary dimensions are in inches even where the tables quote millimetres.
