SKF VP Tapered Roller Bearing Race Cup

The SKF VP Tapered Roller Bearing Race Cup (also called a bearing cup or outer race) is the hardened outer ring of a tapered roller bearing assembly. It is used in wheel hub and axle applications. The cup is pressed into the hub or housing. It gives the tapered rollers a precision-ground surface to run on, so the wheel turns smoothly and loads are carried reliably.

Key Features:

• Tapered roller bearing design that handles combined radial and axial (thrust) loads
• Hardened bearing-grade steel construction for durability and wear resistance
• Precision-ground raceway that supports smooth rolling and low friction
• Made by SKF, a long-established global bearing manufacturer
• Pairs with a matching tapered roller bearing cone to form a complete bearing set

Installation Notes:

Press the cup fully and squarely into the hub bore with a proper bearing driver. Replace the cup together with its matching cone so the wear patterns match and the bearing lasts. Pack the bearing with fresh grease as directed by the vehicle or equipment manufacturer.

SKF VP race cups give you dependable wheel bearing performance in a range of automotive, trailer and light-duty applications. Choose the correct part number for your application from the available options.
