Results for tag: "Thrust Ball Bearing"

Thrust Ball Bearings are a type of bearing used in Machine Tools to support axial loads. They are composed of two grooved washers, with a ball in between them, and a shaft that runs through the center. The ball is held in place by a cage, which is usually made of steel. The washers are usually made of hardened steel, and the shaft is usually made of stainless steel. The ball is able to rotate freely, allowing the bearing to support axial loads. Thrust Ball Bearings are used in a variety of Machine Tools, including lathes, milling machines, and grinding machines. They are used to support the axial loads generated by the cutting forces of the tool. They are also used to reduce friction and wear on the tool, as well as to reduce vibration and noise. There are many companies that manufacture Thrust Ball Bearings for Machine Tools. Some of these include SKF, Timken, NSK, NTN, and FAG. Show Less Read more
