Are standardised, ready-to-fit units with high axial load carrying capacity
Are suitable exclusively for the support of predominantly axial loads
Are particularly suitable where the bearing position is subjected to high axial loads from one or both sides, but the requirements for axial load carrying capacity of the bearings are not so high that axial cylindrical roller bearings with even higher load carrying capacity must be used
Permit higher speeds than roller or needle roller and cage assemblies
Compensate, in conjunction with a spherical housing locating washer, static misalignments between the shaft and housing
