Abstract

A forged outer ring of a tapered wheel bearing incudes a conical ring section having a first end and a second end, a flange section and a central ring section having a first end at the flange section and a second end at the conical ring section. An inner surface of the conical ring section is configured to form a raceway for a first set of tapered rollers. An inner diameter of the first end of the conical ring section is smaller than an inner diameter of the second end of the central ring section and a wall thickness of the second end of the conical ring section is greater than a wall thickness of the first end of the conical ring section.
