Description
SKF Needle Roller Thrust Bearings
SKF needle roller thrust bearings are fitted with a form-stable cage to reliably retain and guide a large number of needle rollers. Needle roller thrust bearings provide a high degree of stiffness within a minimum axial space. In applications where the faces of adjacent machine components can serve as raceways, needle roller thrust bearings take up no more space than a conventional thrust washer.
Applications
Here are examples of applications in which CARB toroidal roller bearings might be used:
- Industrial transmission
- Metals
- Pulp and Paper
- Mining, mineral processing and cement
- Industrial fans
- Marine
Features and benefits
- Accommodate heavy axial loads and peak loads
The very small diameter deviation of the rollers within one assembly enables these bearings to accommodate heavy axial loads and peak loads. - Extended bearing service life
To prevent stress peaks, the roller ends are relieved slightly to modify the line contact between the raceway and rollers.
Applications
Here are examples of applications in which needle roller thrust bearings might be used:
- Machine tools
- Cars and light trucks
- Trucks, trailers and buses
- Two and three wheelers
