How the HH224349-310 model number is decoded
With C 619 kN and C0 830 kN, the HH224349 pair-sizing check is dominated by the axial share: keep the equivalent load P below the rating at the required L10, remembering one bearing alone cannot cover reversing thrust at 3,000 r/min. Fit selection follows the rotating ring — interference on a rotating cone — and two HH224349 units are required to take reversing thrust; keep the induced axial load inside the rated capacity when calculating the pair. Cross-section geometry: the 48.9 mm half-section ((212.725−114.975)/2) of this HH200-series unit places the roller large-end pitch diameter at roughly 163 mm, and the 66.675 mm axial width is split between cone (37 mm) and cup rib (30 mm) — a geometry that sets the contact angle and, with the 10000 g rotating cone mass, the critical speed at which cage-roller imbalance begins. Cone versus cup responsibility in HH224349: the HH 224349 cone carries the 114.975 mm bore, rollers and pressed-steel cage; the 310 cup carries the 212.725 mm OD raceway, the roller-seating rib and the outer press-fit surface. The two references are not interchangeable halves.HH224349 is a single-row tapered roller bearing in the HH224300-series inch series: a separable cone-and-cup design for combined radial and one-direction axial load, listed by SKF in SKF catalogue PUB BU/P1 17000.The HH224300-series series assigns 114.975 mm bore, 212.725 mm OD and 66.675 mm width to HH224349; the cone and cup references are not interchangeable with other inch-series pairs even when the bore matches, because the cup profile and rib geometry are series-specific. SKF lists the plain number as the basic execution; letter suffixes such as B denote a steeper contact angle and are different order numbers.
Typical equipment & failure modes
Common applications
- heavy-duty rolling-mill gearboxes
- large crusher and mineral-processing drives
- wind-turbine main shafts
- rolling-mill roll-neck bearings
Known failure patterns
- cup or cone misalignment when the separable rings are not seated square during mounting
- loose cup rotation in the housing when the specified press fit is not achieved
- preload loss as the mounted pair relaxes, letting rollers skid and smear the raceways
- roller large-end smearing against the cone rib after EP lubricant film failure
- pressed-steel cage wear or fracture after prolonged running above the limiting speed
- edge loading from shaft deflection or housing misalignment
Selection pitfalls — read before you substitute
- At 114.975 mm bore the cone mass is high enough that cocking during mounting damages the cage and rib; guide the ring square, confirm seat contact around the full circumference, and re-check setting after the first thermal cycle of the paired set.
- The HH224300-series inch series at 114.975 mm bore (212.725×66.675 mm) follows the Timken cone/cup convention; substitutions must match both the cone and cup reference exactly — interchanging with another series or a metric 3xxxx bearing of the same bore changes OD, width and contact angle, so re-run the pair setting and shoulder-diameter checks before swapping.
- Setting is a design value, not an assembly feel: excessive preload in the HH224349 pair raises operating temperature and can trigger thermal runaway, while too little lets the rollers skid and smear the raceway under light load.
- When the outer ring rotates, reverse the fit logic and provide cup location; the tapered contact of HH224349 pushes the rings apart under load, so a non-located cup walks its seat even when the shaft is fixed.
- Never press both rings through the wrong element during fitting: force for an interference shaft seat goes through the cone only, or brinell marks on the 212.725 mm cup race release as noise within the first running hours.
- The 619/830 kN ratings are SKF catalogue 17000 values for the basic execution; SKF can revise internal geometry without changing the order number, so keep the catalogue version (PUB BU/P1 17000/1 EN, 2018) with the specification and re-verify for critical drives.
- SKF lists several executions of HH224349 (basic, B steeper angle, Q/J2 clearance variants); they are not interchangeable order numbers — quote the full SKF HH 224349/310 designation when purchasing and match the execution to the mounting arrangement.
Frequently asked questions
Can a single HH224349 take axial load in both directions?
No — one single-row tapered roller bearing reacts thrust in one direction only, and under radial load its contact angle induces an axial force. Use two bearings as a matched pair: O (back-to-back) for a rigid, moment-resisting arrangement, X (face-to-face) where thermal expansion must be tolerated, or tandem where one-direction thrust is shared.
How does HH224349 compare with a ball bearing of the same bore?
A tapered roller bearing has line contact and a steep contact angle: much higher combined axial-plus-radial capacity and shock resistance than a ball bearing of the same bore, at the cost of speed, one-direction thrust, mandatory pairing for reversing loads and a minimum axial load requirement. A ball bearing cannot be dropped into a combined-load HH224349 position and vice versa — verify load direction, Fa/Fr ratio and speed before substituting.
What shaft and housing fits suit HH224349?
For a rotating shaft under normal load, seat the cone on a m6 shaft fit; the cup is usually a loose-to-transition fit in the housing so it can creep slightly and distribute wear. Chamfer and shoulder diameters must clear the bearing rings so the 66.675 mm-wide cup seats square; the mounting setting (end play or preload) is set by the axial position of the cup relative to the cone.
Is HH224349 interchangeable with other brands?
Inch-series tapered roller bearings follow a long-standing industry boundary plan, so cones and cups of the same basic number are generally dimensionally interchangeable across manufacturers. However, internal geometry, cage design and load ratings differ by brand, so for paired or precision applications keep both halves of the set from one manufacturer — or re-verify ratings and setting when mixing.
What are the dimensions and catalogue data of HH224349?
The SKF HH 224349/310 is a single-row tapered roller bearing with 114.975 mm bore, 212.725 mm outer diameter and 66.675 mm width (4.527 × 8.375 × 2.625 in).
