SKF Cooper split tapered roller bearings have two rows of opposed tapered rollers as well as tapered inner and outer ring raceways. They are designed to accommodate combined loads, i.e. simultaneously acting radial and axial loads in both directions and are intended for the locating bearing position of shafts. Their split design makes them beneficial for inaccessible applications where mounting, dismounting and maintenance is a challenge. They are typically mounted in a cartridge that fits into different kinds of housings. While specifically designed for the marine industry, these split tapered roller bearings can also be used in a number of different industries.
