Thrust Ball Bearings

SKL thrust ball bearings are usually composed of shaft washers, housing washers, steel balls and cages, available in two types: single-direction thrust ball bearings and double-direction thrust ball bearings. Classified by the design of housing washers, they can be further divided into those with flat housing washers and those with self-aligning housing washers. Thrust ball bearings with self-aligning housing washers feature the function of compensating for angular misalignment between the bearing housing and the shaft. This type of bearing can only withstand axial loads and not radial loads.
