The cone is the inner-ring and roller assembly of a tapered roller bearing, and it runs against a matching cup. KL68149 is cataloged under several names depending on the vehicle: wheel bearing, differential bearing (manual and automatic transmission), and manual transmission input shaft bearing. Depending on the application, it is listed for front, rear, inner or outer positions.
Schaeffler produces more than 100 million tapered roller bearings each year for the automotive and industrial sectors. Common signs that a bearing may need replacing include a growl, hum or whine that changes with road speed, or roughness or play in the assembly. If a worn bearing cone is the cause, KL68149 replaces it.
