Thrust Bearings are also called axial bearings.
Because this type of bearing is designed,it is mainly used to carry axial force (Axial Force), and because this type of bearing can resist axial thrust (Thrust), it is called "thrust" bearing.
Thrust bearings can be divided into ball thrust bearings and roller thrust bearings according to the rollers they use.
The former is the common steel ball roller, and the latter is the cylindrical roller; among the plane thrust bearings, there are products using cylindrical rollers and products using spherical rollers.
Although this type of bearing can only bear axial load, it has the characteristics of bearing heavy load and high rigidity. Among them, thrust spherical roller bearings are not affected by installation errors and shaft bending because the central part of the rolling element is raised and has a self-aligning function.
The standard retainer is machined brass; the E-type product uses a stamped retainer with a large load capacity.
