The Multiquip 3496 Bearing Cone is a genuine OEM component designed for Essick Mixers, Whiteman Mixers, and LT6KV towable light tower series equipment. As a direct OEM replacement, it meets the original design tolerances required to maintain smooth, low-friction rotation in the bearing assembly. This part is confirmed for use across the EM120P Series, EM120S Series, WM120PH, WM120SH, and LT6KV (60HZ) platforms. Sourced directly from Multiquip, the 3496 ensures you are installing the correct cone geometry for long-lasting performance.
Key Features
- OEM-Grade Taper Tolerancing — Manufactured to the exact taper angle and surface finish specifications of the original bearing cone, ensuring consistent load distribution across the roller assembly.
- Direct Drop-In Replacement — Seats correctly into the bearing cup without shimming or modification, maintaining the intended preload and alignment of the bearing stack.
- Broad Multiquip Fitment — Compatible with EM120P Series, EM120S Series, WM120PH, WM120SH, and LT6KV (60HZ) equipment — one part number covering multiple machines in your fleet.
- Protects Rotating Components — A correctly seated bearing cone reduces heat buildup and wear on adjacent shafts and housings; a worn or undersized cone accelerates damage to the entire bearing assembly.
- Genuine Multiquip OEM Part — Supplied under Multiquip part number 3496, so there is no guesswork about material grade, geometry, or load rating compared to the original specification.
A bearing cone is the inner tapered ring of a tapered roller bearing assembly. It works together with the bearing cup to support radial and axial loads on a rotating shaft, using precisely angled rollers seated between the two races. In mixer and light tower applications, the bearing cone carries the rotational load of drum shafts, axles, or drive components — keeping motion smooth and friction low. When a bearing cone wears, becomes pitted, or loses its taper geometry, it causes vibration, heat, and accelerated wear that can quickly damage surrounding hardware and force a more costly repair.
