NSK thrust ball bearings are designed to handle axial loads exclusively, ensuring precise and smooth operation in applications requiring axial stability and reliability. These bearings consist of ball sets positioned between two washers: one shaft washer and one housing washer, with the raceways ensuring optimal load distribution.
NSK thrust ball bearings are able to accommodate axial loads but must not be subjected to any radial load. For this reason, these bearings are used mainly in vertical applications such as pumps and spiral augers (also known as screw conveyors).
These high performance bearings can be found across almost every industry, from food & beverage to mining & quarrying.
NSK thrust ball bearings are available in single and double direction designs. To accommodate for initial misalignment, they can also be supplied with spherical aligning seats or aligning seat washers.
