Introduction to Ball Bearings  

Thrust Ball Bearings

Thrust Ball Bearings are designed to carry a pure form of thrust (axial) loads. When a load is properly applied to this bearing, the internal contact points are aligned on a plane parallel to the shaft. Radial loads will dislodge the balls from their track and cause the bearing to separate. Thrust ball bearings are made in two configurations, single direction and double direction designs.

Single Direction Thrust Ball Bearings

Double Direction Thrust Ball Bearings

Double Direction Angular Contact Thrust Ball Bearings
