The double row tapered roller bearing is an assembly that combines two rows of tapered rollers in a single unit, designed to support radial and axial loads in both directions. It is used in equipment that requires high load capacity and rigidity, such as gearboxes, drives of road machinery and machine tool spindles. MR Accesorios Industriales supplies this TIMKEN line in Buenos Aires, Argentina, and advises you on choosing the correct variant for your application.
The designation of these TIMKEN bearings is organized by letters and numbers that identify the series and size. In the TTHDFL series, the W prefix and the numeric block such as W-3218-BPin indicate the assembly and its dimensions; the BPin suffix indicates an execution with particular sealing or mounting characteristics. To correctly interpret each code, it is best to consult the series table or write to us with the full code and we will tell you the equivalent reference.
These bearings are used in industries in Argentina such as metallurgy, cement, mining and food processing. They are present in speed reducers, conveyor belts, mills, presses and earthmoving equipment. Their double row allows replacing two single row bearings in a more compact space, simplifying shaft design and reducing the number of parts.
To select the right bearing, take into account the radial and axial load it must support, the rotation speed and the environmental conditions. Sealing is key: if there is dust or moisture, an execution with integrated seals is advisable. Lubrication must be the one indicated for the working temperature, and mounting requires correctly aligning the races to avoid stresses. Mounting with a hydraulic press and the appropriate adapters prevents damage to the rollers.
Regarding equivalences, double row tapered roller bearings from different brands can be interchanged if the main dimensions, contact angle and load capacity match. It is not enough for the code to be similar: tolerances and internal clearance must be verified. If you need to replace a bearing from another brand, send us the original code and at MR Accesorios Industriales we will tell you the compatible TIMKEN alternative.
To request a quote for the bearing you need, send the full code by WhatsApp, for example W-3218-BPin, or the model of your equipment. We will reply shortly with the available reference and the sealing or lubrication options. If you are looking for a variant that does not appear, write to us with the code or the dimensions and we will help you find it.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What does the BPin suffix mean in a TIMKEN bearing?
- The BPin suffix identifies a specific execution within the series, generally associated with the type of sealing or mounting details. To confirm its exact meaning in your code, ask us with the full reference and we will give you the details.
- How do I choose between a single row and a double row tapered bearing?
- The double row one supports axial loads in both directions and offers greater rigidity in less space. If your equipment requires high load capacity and precise alignment, the double row is usually the option. Still, always verify the housing dimensions.
- Can I replace a bearing from another brand with a TIMKEN one?
- Yes, if the main dimensions, contact angle and load capacity match. Do not rely only on the code: send us the original reference and we will tell you the appropriate TIMKEN equivalence for your application.
