This thrust ball bearing from SKF is ideal for applications that experience heavy axial loads at low speeds. It's a vital component in tall rotating applications over 1.2-metres high. The component is specifically used to handle axial thrust loads in a single direction – it can't tolerate radial loads of any size. Constructed from high-strength steel, it's durable and offers good corrosion resistance. For easy maintenance, all of the parts in this bearing are separable and interchangeable.

Constant metal-to-metal contact produces large amounts of friction and stress. For safe use and to avoid costly secondary damage, thrust ball bearings need to be lubricated at all times.

Thrust ball bearings are typically used in low-speed applications where there are no centrifugal or radial loads. These include boat and ship propulsion, agricultural machinery and even fitness machines.
