Abstract
Automotive wheel and brake engineers are studying various wheel bearing concepts which lend themselves to easy installation and reduction of unsprung weight. A family of tapered roller bearing designs has been developed for both driving and non-driving wheels which offer the industry several options for marrying suspension, wheel and bearing components. While differing in configuration, all may be selected to meet established criteria for satisfactory performance based on the latest bearing analysis techniques and experience derived from extensive laboratory and field test programs.
