Taper Roller Bearing - shaft bearing for the R380 five-speed manual gearbox.

A taper roller bearing carries both radial load and axial thrust, locating and supporting a rotating shaft within the gearbox at the countershaft / centre-plate position. The tapered rollers run between hardened inner and outer races, and correct pre-load on assembly is essential to bearing life and quiet running.

Replace together with its matching race and check shaft end-float on reassembly.

Frequently asked questions

What is the STC1628 taper roller bearing for?

The STC1628 is a Timken taper roller bearing for the R380 five-speed manual gearbox. It supports and locates a rotating shaft at the countershaft or centre-plate position, carrying both radial load and axial thrust between its hardened inner and outer races.

Do I need to replace the bearing race as well?

Yes, a taper roller bearing runs against a matching outer race, so the STC1628 should typically be renewed together with its race rather than reusing a worn one. On reassembly the shaft end-float or pre-load needs checking so the R380 bearing runs quietly and lasts.

What are the signs this R380 bearing needs replacing?

A worn R380 taper roller bearing typically shows up as a whine, growl or rumble from the gearbox that changes with road speed, and sometimes roughness felt through the lever. Left unchecked, bearing wear increases shaft play and can damage the surrounding gears.
