Thrust Ball Bearing

Thrust ball bearings are a type of antifriction bearing that falls under the supply class "Bearings, Antifriction, Unmounted" in the supply group "Bearings."

Thrust ball bearings are designed to handle axial loads, which are forces that act parallel to the bearing's axis. They consist of two washers (called raceways) and a set of balls that are positioned between them. The raceways are designed to accommodate axial loads in a single direction.

These bearings are commonly used in applications where there is a need to support heavy axial loads, such as in automotive transmissions, industrial machinery, and agricultural equipment. They are also used in applications where there is a need for high-speed operation and low friction.

Thrust ball bearings are available in various sizes and designs to accommodate different load capacities and operating conditions. They are typically made of high-quality steel or other durable materials to ensure long-lasting performance.

Overall, thrust ball bearings are essential components in many mechanical systems, providing reliable support for axial loads and contributing to the smooth operation of various types of machinery.
