Thrust Ball Bearing
Thrust ball bearings support axial loads with smooth, low-friction rotation.
Structural Features of Thrust Ball Bearings
Ball Rolling Elements: Use spherical balls running in precision raceways to support axial loads with low friction.
Washer Assembly: Composed of a shaft washer and a housing washer, with rolling elements positioned between them.
Cage Design: Maintains proper ball spacing and alignment for smooth and stable operation.
One-Way & Two-Way Types: Available to support axial loads in one direction or in both directions, depending on application requirements.
Structure Type
Application Environments
Thrust ball bearings are widely used in applications where axial load support and smooth rotation are required. Typical applications include:
