Ball Thrust Bearings Manufacturer

A ball thrust bearing is a particular type of rotary ball bearing. Like other ball bearings, they permit rotation between parts, but they are designed to support a high axial load while doing this (parallel to the shaft). Higher speed applications require oil lubrication. Generally, they are composed of two washers (raceways) which may be grooved the rolling balls elements which are typically caged. As opposed to roller thrust bearings, ball thrust bearings can generally operate at higher speeds but at lower loads.

Thrust ball bearings are classified into those with flat seats or aligning seats depending on the shape of the outer ring seat (housing washer). They can sustain axial loads but no radial loads. For Single-Direction Thrust Ball Bearings, pressed steel cages and machined brass cages are usually used The cages in Double- Direction Thrust Ball Bearings are the same as those in Single-Direction Thrust Ball Bearings of the same diameter series.

Features

Available in two designs: single direction and double direction.
To accommodate initial misalignments in an assembly both designs are available with spherical aligning seats or aligning seat washers.
High quality steel-ultra clean steel to extend bearing life by up to 80%.
Advanced Grease Technology — lubricants that can extend grease life and performance.
High Grade Balls — Quiet and smooth operation even at high speed.
Optional seating rings take initial misalignment.
