1. Pengenalan
This manual provides essential information for the proper installation, operation, and maintenance of the Timken 98400 Tapered Roller Bearing single cone. The Timken 98400 is designed to support both radial and axial loads in various industrial applications. Adhering to these instructions will help ensure optimal performance and longevity of the bearing.
The Timken 98400 is a single cone (inner ring) component. For a complete single tapered roller bearing assembly, it must be paired with a compatible single cup (outer ring), which is sold separately.
2. Produk Lebihview
The Timken 98400 tapered roller bearing cone is engineered for durability and performance in demanding environments. Key features include:
- Muatkan Sokongan: Designed to effectively support both radial and axial loads between a rotating and a non-rotating component.
- Julat Suhu: Operates reliably across a broad temperature spectrum, from -54 to 120 degrees Celsius (-65 to 250 degrees Fahrenheit).
- Bahan: Constructed from Timken's high-alloy steel, providing durability, heat tolerance, and resistance to deformation under heavy loads.
- Cage Design: Features a stamped steel cage that ensures even spacing of the rollers, which contributes to reduced friction, vibration, and noise during operation.
- Lubrication Access: The open configuration of the cone allows for easy application and reapplication of lubrication in place.

3. Persediaan dan Pemasangan
Proper installation is critical for the performance and lifespan of the Timken 98400 bearing. This single cone must be assembled with a compatible single cup (outer ring) to form a complete tapered roller bearing unit.
3.1 Perhimpunan Komponen
- Select Compatible Cup: Ensure the chosen cup (outer ring) is specifically designed to mate with the Timken 98400 cone. Refer to Timken's product documentation for compatibility.
- Kebersihan: Thoroughly clean all components (cone, cup, shaft, housing) to remove any debris, contaminants, or old lubricant before assembly.
- Pelinciran: Apply a thin, even coat of appropriate lubricant to the bearing surfaces of both the cone and cup prior to assembly.
- Tekan Padat: The cone is typically press-fitted onto the shaft, and the cup into the housing. Use appropriate tools and methods to ensure even pressure during installation, avoiding direct impact on the rollers or cage.
3.2 Mounting Configuration
Tapered roller bearings are generally mounted in opposing pairs on a shaft. This configuration allows for even distribution of loads and proper axial positioning. Consult engineering drawings and application-specific guidelines for precise mounting instructions and preload settings.

4. Operasi
The Timken 98400 tapered roller bearing is designed for high-load, moderate-speed applications. Its robust construction allows it to perform reliably in demanding industrial environments.
4.1 Aplikasi Khas
This bearing is suitable for a wide range of applications, including but not limited to:
- Automotive axle systems
- Conveyor systems in heavy-duty industries (e.g., mining, construction, agriculture)
- Kotak gear
- Jentera perindustrian
4.2 Pengendalian Beban
The tapered geometry of the rollers and raceways enables the bearing to efficiently distribute both radial (perpendicular to the shaft) and axial (parallel to the shaft) loads. Proper alignment and lubrication are essential for maximizing load-carrying capacity and preventing premature wear.
5. Penyelenggaraan
Regular maintenance is crucial for extending the service life of the Timken 98400 bearing and ensuring consistent performance.
5.1 Pelinciran
As an open-configuration bearing, the Timken 98400 requires lubrication to be applied in place. The frequency and type of lubricant depend on the application, operating conditions, and environmental factors. Always refer to the equipment manufacturer's recommendations for lubrication schedules and specifications.
- Use high-quality industrial grease or oil suitable for tapered roller bearings.
- Ensure proper lubricant quantity; over-lubrication can lead to excessive heat and seal damage, while under-lubrication causes premature wear.
- Periodically reapply lubrication based on usage and environmental conditions.
5.2 Pemeriksaan
Regularly inspect the bearing and surrounding components for signs of wear, damage, or contamination. Look for:
- Unusual noise or vibration during operation.
- Penjanaan haba yang berlebihan.
- Discoloration of bearing surfaces.
- Presence of foreign particles or inadequate lubrication.
- Damage to the cage or roller elements.
Address any issues promptly to prevent further damage to the bearing or associated machinery.
