Thrust Ball Bearings

Thrust Bearings are designed primarily to support axial loads at contact angles between 30° and 90°. Just as with radial bearings, these bearings differ according to the type of rolling element they use. With thrust bearings, it is necessary to supply an axial preload in order to prevent slipping movement between the bearing's rolling element and raceways.
Comprising of caged ball bearing element and pair of shaft housing washers (bearing shaft washer and housing washer, and the normal contact angle is 90°. Axial loads can be supported in only one direction, radial loads cannot be accommodated. Spherical roller and needle roller versions are also available.

SNR Bearings

SNR has developed a complete range of high quality ball thrust bearings. Thrust bearings are designed to maintain the shaft in one single direction. They admit low rotating speeds and sustain high axial loads.

You are strongly advised against submitting them to radial loading. Ball thrust bearings are comprised of separate items facilitating installation and maintenance. Grease and oil lubrication is feasible.

Applications: vertical shaft, lathe tailstock, plate-type pumps.

Housed Bearing Units

Housed Bearing Units are one of the most effective and easiest solution to accomodate misalignment. Units below consist of housing and insert. A wide range is available including Imperial sizes. Please ask for further information.

Flanged Housing Unit - MSF Type Square - Four Bolt

Made of grey cast iron with four fixing holes.

Adapter Sleeves

Adaptor sleeves are commonly used for locating tapererd bored bearing and securing them to a shaft. They can be accurately positioned and dismounted. By using in conjuction with SNR feeler gauges accurate radial clearances will be achieved.

Single Row Deep Groove Ball Bearings - C3 Internal Clearance

C3 Bearings have an internal clearance to cope with high speed environments where excess heat is generated.

Open Type

Without seals to allow for the free circulation of either oil or grease, used in gearboxes and other assemblies where a lubricant is already present.

Cylindrical Roller Bearings

Single row cylindrical roller bearings with inner and outer rings. Several styles are available in this series with one or two ribs on either the inner or outer rings. These can support high radial loads and higher speeds due to the cage design than the full compliment designs. The bearings are separable and easier to fit and dismantle.

Non-Locating Type with two Ribs on Inner Ring and Outer Ring is without Ribs

Taper Roller Bearings

Tapered roller bearings are comprised of solid inner and outer rings with raceways, taper rollers and cages manufactured from pressed steel. The bearings are not self-retaining. As a result, the inner ring with the rollers can be fitted separately from the outer ring. Tapered roller bearings are not sealed and not supplied grease filled.
