Conical bearings usually consist of two conical surfaces, one of which is fixed and the other can slide or rotate on the shaft. Steel pipes are widely used to manufacture various types of bearings, including tapered bearings. Steel pipe has become one of the ideal materials for manufacturing bearings because of its high strength, corrosion resistance and easy processing.
When manufacturing tapered bearings, one end of the steel pipe is usually cut to the required angle and size, and then its surface is machined into a conical surface. In the process of processing, steel pipes need to go through many processes, including cutting, grinding, rolling, heat treatment and finishing. All these programs are to ensure the accuracy and quality of steel pipe, so that it can be used as one of the materials of conical bearings.
In a word, steel pipe can be used as one of the materials of conical bearings, mainly because of its high strength, corrosion resistance and easy processing, and it is one of the ideal materials for manufacturing bearings.
