NSK Double-Direction Thrust Ball Bearings

Double-Direction Thrust Ball Bearings | Axial Load Support in Both Directions
Double-direction thrust ball bearings use three washers, with two cages containing the balls. This shaft washer is sandwiched between the two cages, allowing the bearing to take axial loads in both directions.

Features

• Specialized design
  A cage contains the balls while the grooved aligning seat washer guides them.
• Dedicated components
  Washers attached to the shaft are called “shaft washers” and those attached to the housing are called “housing washers”.
• Support axial loads in both directions
  True to their name, double-direction thrust ball bearings can sustain axial loads in both directions. Models with aligning seat washers are alaso available to help reduce the effects of mounting errors.

Applications

• Vacuum pumps, disc hubs in agricultural machinery, compressors, press machines, clutch breakers
