Specifications

⚠️ Fitment Notice: Always verify OEM part number A0149815005 against your vehicle VIN and axle specification before ordering. Wheel suspension bearing fitment on heavy trucks is safety-critical — incorrect selection may result in bearing failure and loss of vehicle control.

Design & Construction

The A0149815005 is a large-bore single-row tapered roller bearing engineered as a direct OEM replacement for Mercedes-Benz heavy truck wheel suspension assemblies. With an outer diameter of 165 mm and a weight of 6.4 kg, this is a heavy-duty bearing designed to sustain the extreme combined radial and axial loads typical of heavy commercial vehicle wheel suspension positions.

• Tapered roller geometry provides superior combined radial and axial load capacity — essential for heavy truck wheel suspension under full GVW loading

• Large bore-to-OD ratio (57mm bore / 165mm OD) delivers exceptional load distribution across the roller complement

• Cone and cup assembly — separable design allows individual cone or cup replacement in the field, reducing maintenance downtime

• Line contact between tapered rollers and raceways delivers high load capacity and long service life under heavy-duty, high-impact conditions

• Open design — field-lubricated with NLGI 2/3 wheel bearing grease per OEM specification

• GCr15 / AISI 52100 through-hardened steel — 60–64 HRC, full material traceability available

Dimensional Data

The 6.4 kg weight and 165 mm outer diameter place this bearing firmly in the heavy-duty commercial vehicle category, distinguishing it from standard passenger car or light truck wheel bearings. This bearing is engineered to sustain the sustained high radial and axial loads characteristic of heavy truck wheel suspension duty cycles.

FAQ

Q: What Mercedes-Benz vehicles use the A0149815005 bearing?

A0149815005 is a Mercedes-Benz OEM part number used on heavy truck wheel suspension assemblies. Confirmed fitment includes Actros, Axor, Atego, and Arocs series. Always verify against your VIN and axle specification before ordering.

Q: What is the FAG / SKF equivalent part number?

Please contact us with your vehicle model and VIN for a confirmed cross-reference. We will verify the dimensional equivalent (57×165×57mm) against FAG, SKF, Timken, and other major brand catalogues before supply.

Q: How does this bearing differ from the A0159810005?

The A0149815005 (57×165×57mm, 6.4 kg) is a significantly larger and heavier bearing than the A0159810005 (85×130×29mm, 1.32 kg), reflecting its role in a heavier-duty wheel suspension position. Both are tapered roller bearings for Mercedes-Benz heavy truck applications.

Q: What precision grade should I specify?

P0 (standard) covers the majority of heavy truck aftermarket replacement applications. P6 or P5 is available for OEM supply or applications requiring tighter running accuracy.

Q: What lubrication is recommended?

Heavy truck wheel suspension bearings of this type are typically lubricated with NLGI Grade 2 or Grade 3 lithium complex or calcium sulfonate wheel bearing grease. Follow your vehicle OEM's lubrication specification and regreasing intervals.

Q: What is the correct installation procedure?

For a bearing with 57mm bore and 6.4 kg weight, use a hydraulic press or induction heater for installation. Never strike the bearing directly. Set preload or end-play strictly per the OEM workshop manual. Incorrect preload on a wheel suspension bearing is a safety hazard.

Q: Is OEM / private-label packaging available?

Yes. Custom box printing (your brand / part number), laser-engraved part number (A0149815005) and logo on the bearing ring, and full inner/outer branded packaging are all available. All IP rights remain yours. MOQ and pricing on request.

Q: What documentation is available?

GCr15 / AISI 52100 material certificates, dimensional inspection reports, hardness test reports (60–64 HRC), packing lists, commercial invoices, certificates of origin. SGS / BV / TÜV third-party inspection supported on request.

Q: What is the MOQ and lead time?

Minimum 1 pc accepted for sample evaluation. Volume pricing from 10 pcs. Standard lead time: 7–15 days ex-stock / 20–30 days for production orders. Trade terms: FOB Qingdao / CIF / EXW available.
