Thrust ball bearings

Thrust ball bearings are a type of rolling-element bearing designed to support axial loads, which are forces applied along the shaft's axis. These bearings consist of a ball element placed between two rings, with the races arranged in a way that allows the bearing to handle high axial loads while providing smooth movement. Thrust ball bearings are commonly used in applications like automotive transmissions, machine tools, and heavy machinery, where precise control of axial movement is essential. They are available in single and double-direction configurations, depending on the direction of the applied load.
