Thrust Roller Bearing

Available with cylindrical or spherical rollers,  thrust roller bearings sustain only axial loads, but they are suitable for heavy loads and have high axial rigidity. Spherical thrust roller bearings contain convex rollers and have a self- aligning capability and are free of any influence of mounting error or shaft deflection. Standard cages are machined brass, where the E-type offers a pressed cage for high load capacity.

These are thrust bearings using tapered rollers. The single-type bearings include those with and without ribs on the housing raceway washers, as well as the full complement roller type. Double-type bearings are mainly used to support axial loads such as those on rolling mill roll necks.
