For a ball-bearing solution that makes light work of moving radial and axial loads at the same time, select this one from SKF. As an angular contact type, its one-piece raceway can move loads up, down, back and forth in a single direction with minimal resistance. This limits the amount of friction and heat produced, making this product a practical pick for your high-speed applications and temperature-sensitive bearing assemblies. A dynamic load rating of 34.5kN means the unit withstands very large forces when in motion.

• Bearing steel construction is heat-stabilised up to +150°C for use in tough settings
• High limiting speed of 10,000r/min suits high-velocity tasks
• Contact angle of 40° offers the stability to deal with both rolling movements and one-directional axial forces

• Aerospace engineering
• Wind turbines
• Automotive manufacture

This is an open-ended bearing without seals to prevent contaminants from getting inside. As a result, it's well-suited to environments with little risk of dust and debris that could affect its performance.
