What are the main distinctions between angular contact ball bearings and tapered roller bearings?
Both angular contact ball bearings (ACBBs) and tapered roller bearings (TRBs) are designed to handle combined radial and axial loads, but they differ in structure, performance, and applications. ACBBs use point contact between balls and raceways, allowing smoother rotation and higher operating speeds with minimal friction. In contrast, TRBs use line contact between tapered rollers and raceways, providing greater load-bearing capacity and rigidity, especially under heavy radial and axial forces.
Because of their geometry, ACBBs are ideal for precision applications such as electric motors, machine tool spindles, and pumps, where speed and low noise are essential. TRBs, however, are commonly used in automotive wheel hubs, gearboxes, and heavy-duty machinery—environments that demand strength, durability, and load stability.
