28985 Timken

The 28985 Timken cone is an essential part of a single-row tapered roller bearing, consisting of the inner ring and rollers. When combined with a separate cup, these components form a complete tapered roller bearing. The design allows for absorption of radial and axial forces in one direction due to conical raceways on the inner and outer rings and tapered rollers. This prevents sliding movements, minimizing wear, although a minimum load is needed for proper function. The separable cone and cup make assembly easy, allowing for adjustment of axial clearance or preload. For optimal performance, it is recommended to replace both the cone and cup simultaneously, preferably using components from the same manufacturer to avoid potential bearing problems. Always pair the 28985 Timken with a compatible cup from the same manufacturer for reliable operation.
