A thrust bearing includes a first axial end washer defining thereon a first race, a second axial end washer defining thereon a second race, a one-piece, radially-inner washer having a first axial end engaged with the first axial end washer and having a second axial end defining thereon a third race, and a one-piece, radially-outer washer having a first axial end defining thereon a fourth race and having a second axial end engaged with the second axial end washer. A first set of tapered rolling elements is supported between the first race and the fourth race and a second set of tapered rolling elements is supported between the second race and the third race. The first and second sets of tapered rolling elements are both axially and radially offset from one another.

Stacked thrust tapered dissimilar series roller bearing

A bearing assembly includes a split inner race ring configured to be installed on a shaft and defines two raceways for supporting rolling elements. A split clamping band is configured to be installed over the split inner race ring to secure the split inner race ring on the shaft. A split seal wear ring is configured to be installed on an outer diameter surface of the split clamping band. An engagement interface between the split clamping band and the split seal wear ring includes a boss on one of the split clamping band and the split seal wear ring, and an aperture on the other one of the split clamping band and the split seal wear ring. The aperture is sized and configured to receive the boss for positioning the split seal wear ring on the split clamping band.
