Two-row or double-row tapered roller bearings have increased radial load capacity compared to single-row bearings. They can also handle thrust loads from both directions. The rollers can be configured in a converging or a diverging orientation. In converging double-row tapered roller bearings, the contact lines of the rollers to the races converge towards the axis of the bearing rotation. This style does not appreciably increase the rigidity of the shaft mounting. In diverging double-row tapered bearings, the contact lines of the rollers to the races diverge towards the axis of the bearing rotation. This style increases the rigidity of the shaft mounting. Different configurations are also available with a single outer ring and two inner rings or two outer rings and a single inner ring.

Roller Bearings
Roller bearings are used in rotary applications to replace sliding movement with low friction, rolling motion. The principal types of roller bearings are cylindrical, spherical, and tapered.
Tapered Roller Bearings
Tapered roller bearings consist of an inner ring (cone), an outer ring (cup), a cage and rollers, which are profiled to distribute the load evenly across the roller.
Hinges (Industrial)
Industrial hinges are jointed devices that allow an attached part, such as a door or window, to swing.
Door Stays and Lid Stays
Door and lid stays are devices connected to a lid or a door that prevent it from opening further than a specified amount, typically 90 degrees.
Door Stops and Holders
Door Stops and Holders stop a door from opening at a predetermined point to prevent damage to the door and surrounding environment. There are many configurations. Some types have the capability of holding the door open at the given point.
