<p>Roller bearings are similar in profile to ball bearings but rather than using balls to rotate they utilise cylinder rolling elements. Roller bearings carry a load by placing rolling elements such as rollers between outer rings and inner rings called races. This allows the bearing to maintain separation between moving parts, helping to reduce rotational friction and noise.</p><p>For applications requiring high radial and axial load support, roller bearings are ideal and are available in a variety of designs and shapes.</p><p>Roller bearings are categorised by the shape of the roller which can reduce friction and support radial and axial loads. RS have a great range of bearings including tapered roller bearings and needle roller bearings to meet all your requirements. These types of bearings can feature single or multiple rows of rolling elements. You can find out more in our <a href="/web/content/discovery/ideas-and-advice/roller-bearings-guide">roller bearings guide</a>.</p><h2>Types of Roller Bearings</h2><p>There are a wide range of roller bearing available in various sizes and types, each suited to specific applications. Popular types of roller bearings include:<ul><p><li><strong>Tapered Roller Bearings</strong> - Tapered outer, inner rollers and raceways accommodate the simultaneous thrust and radial loads of this type of bearing</li><li><strong>Spherical Roller Bearings</strong> - These feature two rings on the inner raceway that handle loads and misalignment concerns</li><li><strong>Needle Roller Bearings</strong> - This type of bearing utilises long and thin cylindrical rollers to support radial loads</li><li><strong>Cylindrical roller Bearing</strong> - Ideal for handling low thrust and high radial loads at high speeds</li></ul><h2>Roller Bearing Applications</h2><p>Roller bearings are widely used across industry, helping with the movement and mobilization of machinery. They are commonly found in aviation cargo systems, manufacturing, aerospace, automobile industry, power houses and numerous other applications.</p>

Spherical Roller Bearings | RS

<p>Spherical roller bearings are a type of bearing which feature spherical shaped rolling elements. Like traditional bearings, spherical roller bearings consist of an inner ring and outer ring. Each ring features a raceway which the rollers sit within. The roller bearing also features cages to keep the rollers distanced and enable smooth rotation.</p><p>Spherical roller bearings are ideal for heavy axial and radial loads. Heavy loads can also encounter misalignment. Spherical roller bearings are able to handle misalignment. Sealed spherical roller bearings are also available to reduce contamination. Spherical roller bearings are ideal for large applications which may be prone to misalignment, such as wind turbines and pumps.</p>

Tapered Roller Bearings | RS

<p>Tapered roller bearings are ideal for applications that require high radial and thrust load support. Tapered roller bearings feature a low friction design utilising a cup and cone assembly. The outer ring of a tapered roller bearing is the cup and the cone element consists of an inner ring, rollers and cage. Taper roller bearings are available in inch and metric sizes, making them highly versatile.</p><h2>Where are tapered roller bearings used?</h2><p>Tapered roller bearings are used in a wide range of mechanical applications that require low friction bearings that can support high axial force. These types of bearings are commonly used in areas such as agriculture, construction and automotive.</p>
