SKF 51210 Thrust Ball Bearing- Open Type 50mm I.D, 78mm O.D

This SKF thrust bearing is designed to support axial loads in tall rotating applications such as screw-down systems. Its steel composition makes it robust and corrosion-resistant, as well as low on maintenance. Lubrication is easy thanks to its pressed steel cage, which offers more space between the bearing's inner and outer rings. The unit consists of a separate shaft washer, housing washer and ball and cage, so it's simple to assemble and mount.

The metal-on-metal contact experienced in steel ball bearings creates friction, causing the component to wear. Lubrication reduces this friction and slows down degradation. It also helps protect the bearing against surface corrosion.

A thrust bearing is specifically designed to assist rotation around a fixed shaft. This makes it unsuitable for use with radial load applications.
