Timken14137A-90029Imperial Tapered Roller Bearing Cone & Cup Set, 1-3/8″ Bore x 2.717″ OD x 0.7813″ Wide, Class 0

Product Description

What this part is

This is a Timken single-row tapered roller bearing supplied as a factory cone-and-cup set: cone (inner ring with rollers and cage) 14137A running in cup (outer ring) 14276. Tapered roller bearings carry radial load and thrust in one direction simultaneously, which is why they dominate wheel ends, gearbox shafts and any application where a shaft is loaded off-axis. Because the cone and cup are separable, the two rings can be mounted in different components and brought together on assembly — a real advantage on split housings and press-fit shafts.

Decoding the designation

14137A: The cone. The A denotes the current design revision of the 14137 cone.

14276: The mating cup for the 14100 family at this envelope.

-90029: A Timken assembly number. Numbers in the 9xxxx range identify a factory-supplied kit rather than a loose component, so this listing is the cone and the cup together, not one ring on its own.

Class 0: Standard ABEC/RBEC tolerance class, the normal precision grade for industrial tapered roller bearings.

Published ratings and mounting data

Ratings above are published for the 14137A/14276 and 14138A/14276 assemblies, which share one envelope and one rating set.

What these specs mean in practice

Two dynamic ratings get quoted for Timken tapered bearings and they are not interchangeable. C1 is referenced to one million revolutions and is the figure that matches ISO practice for comparing against a metric bearing. C90 is referenced to 90 million revolutions and is the figure Timken’s own life calculations use. Comparing a competitor’s ISO C against Timken’s C90 makes the Timken bearing look four times weaker than it is. C1 compares to C1.

The separate thrust rating, Ca90 at 9,260 N, matters because a tapered roller bearing only takes thrust in one direction. The usual arrangement is two bearings opposed — back-to-back or face-to-face — so that between them they hold the shaft both ways and can be set to a specified endplay or preload. A single tapered bearing left to take reversing thrust will unload, skid its rollers and fail early.

Quantity and configuration

Sold as 1 set — one cone 14137A and its one mating cup 14276. An opposed pair arrangement takes two sets.

Interchange guidance

Search forms include 14137A-90029, 14137A/14276, 14137A 14276, 14137A-14276, and the individual components 14137A and 14276. The 14138A cone shares the same 14276 cup and the same boundary dimensions, so a machine built around 14138A/14276 accepts this envelope — but match the cone number where a parts list specifies one, because cone geometry differs between 14137A and 14138A. Cross-brand equivalents exist at this envelope from NTN, Koyo, NSK and SKF under the same industry part numbers, since the 14100 series is an established inch-series standard rather than a Timken-proprietary design.
