Thrust ball bearings are designed to support axial loads and are commonly used in applications where high axial load capacity and low friction are required. They consist of two grooved washers and a ball assembly sandwiched between them. The ball assembly consists of a cage that guides and retains the balls. Thrust ball bearings are suitable for high-speed applications and are often used in automotive, aerospace, and industrial machinery.
Thrust ball bearings come in various designs and sizes to accommodate different load and speed requirements. They offer high reliability and performance in demanding applications, making them essential components in many mechanical systems.
