Description
RKB T2EE 040 is a reference of tapered roller bearing, within Bearings. Request a quote for T2EE 040 via WhatsApp or email with the quantity you need; we respond promptly with the quote and equivalents.
The tapered roller bearing is a component designed to withstand combined radial and axial loads. Its internal geometry, with inclined rollers and raceways, distributes the load over a larger contact surface than that of a ball bearing. It is used in applications with significant forces and where high load capacity is required, such as gearboxes, transmission equipment and industrial machinery. MR Accesorios Industriales sells the RKB brand in Buenos Aires, Argentina.
The designation of this series is read in blocks: the initial letters identify the type and the dimension series, and the numbers that follow indicate the size. For example, in T2EE 040 and T2EE 060 the code T2EE corresponds to a single-row tapered roller series, while the final numbers indicate the size within that series. In T4EE 160 the prefix changes, which indicates another dimension series. These part numbers are the reference for requesting the bearing on WhatsApp.
These bearings are used in industries such as food, metallurgy, mining and agriculture, in equipment such as conveyor belts, mills, mixers, pumps and industrial fans. They also appear in gearboxes, drive shafts and support rollers. In Argentina, they are commonly found in grain processing machinery, balanced feed plants and road equipment. Their ability to withstand combined loads makes them suitable for assemblies where the shaft receives radial and axial forces at the same time.
To correctly select a tapered roller bearing, take into account the radial and axial load it must withstand, the rotation speed and the environmental conditions. Assembly requires careful alignment and proper adjustment of the internal clearance, which is usually set with nuts, lock nuts or shims. Lubrication can be with grease or oil, depending on the type of sealing and the application. It is important to verify that the housing and the shaft have the correct tolerances to avoid premature wear or failures.
When looking for a replacement, it is common to compare the main dimensions (bore diameter, outer diameter and width) and the load capacity. Series from different manufacturers may be interchangeable if these measurements and the contact angle match. If you have the part number of another brand, we can help you identify the equivalence. At MR Accesorios Industriales we advise you so that you find the right bearing for your application.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What does the T2EE designation mean in these bearings?
- The code T2EE identifies a series of single-row tapered roller bearings. The numbers that follow indicate the size within that series. For example, T2EE 040 and T2EE 060 share the prefix but differ in dimensions. If you need assistance interpreting a part number, write to us on WhatsApp.
- How do I choose the right tapered roller bearing?
- To choose correctly, consider the radial and axial load, the rotation speed and the available space. The type of lubrication and the sealing are also important. If you send us this data or the part number of the original part, we will quote the option that best suits your equipment.
- Are RKB bearings interchangeable with other brands?
- Interchangeability depends on the main dimensions and the contact angle matching. Many tapered roller series are equivalent between manufacturers. If you have the part number of another brand, send it to us and we will tell you the compatible alternative or quote the direct replacement.
