Thrust Ball Bearings
-
Thrust ball bearings provide optimum performance in high speed applications. Thrust ball bearings provide axial rigidity but are not recommended for applications experiencing any radial loads.
Available in single direction and double direction designs
Design Attributes
Suitable for relatively high axial loads
Low to medium speed ratings
Minimum axial load
It is necessary to apply some axial load to thrust bearings to prevent slippage between the rolling elements and raceways.Preload of Thrust Ball Bearings

Single-Direction Thrust Ball Bearings
Axial loads in one direction can be sustained.
Double-Direction Thrust Ball BearingsAxial loads in both directions can be sustained
by shaft sleeve.
