Thrust Roller Bearing

Thrust roller bearings can be used to bear axial loads and radial combined loads, but the radial load must not exceed 55% of the axial load. Compared with other thrust roller bearings, this type of bearing has a lower friction coefficient, higher speed and self-aligning performance.

Thrust cylindrical roller bearings and thrust tapered roller bearings can be used in low-speed applications, and the speed of thrust tapered roller bearings is slightly higher than that of thrust cylindrical roller bearings. Thrust cylindrical roller bearings are separable bearings that can only withstand unidirectional axial loads and slight impacts, and can limit the axial displacement of the shaft (or housing) in one direction, so they can be used as unidirectional axial positioning. However, their load-bearing capacity is much greater than that of thrust ball bearings. When the roller rolls, the roller will inevitably slide on the raceway of the ring. Therefore, the limit speed of this type of bearing is lower than that of the thrust ball bearing, and is usually only suitable for low-speed applications.
