We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "Tapered Roller Bearing",
and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Engineeringtalk which will be of interest.
Let me be your guide.
Start with
the news release Water recycling cuts cleaning costs from
Michael Smith Engineers, which we summarised at the time by saying "Michael Smith Engineers' Hydra-Cell seal-less pumps are particularly effective for cleaning applications and are ideally suited to handling recycled fluids or fluids containing
particulates".
A few weeks before,
we featured the news release Hub bearing unit handles high loads from
SKF UK: "SKF taper-to-taper version of its X-Tracker hub bearing unit offers greater control during cornering, better steering, minimised brake wear, and reduced noise and vibration".
In February 2007, we covered the news from SKF UK
concerning its Deep groove and tapered roller bearings
- take a look at Bearings cut energy use by 30%
which says: "SKF has developed a new family of bearings that reduce energy consumption by at least 30% compared to standard ISO products".
Take a look also at the news release from Michael Smith Engineers, Pumps are simply built to last,
as well as Bearing package keeps German locos rolling from Schaeffler (UK),
and Bearing helps cut the weight of wind power from Schaeffler (UK).
