Single direction and double direction thrust ball bearings SKF, FAG, INA, NSK, NTN, IKO Thrust ball bearings can be devided into single direction and double. Single direction thrust ball bearings, as their name suggests, can accommodate axial loads in one direction and thus locate a shaft axially in one direction. They must not be subjected to any radial load. Double direction thrust ball bearings can accommodate axial loads acting in both directions

One/Two-Directional Thrust Ball Bearing THRUST BALL BEARING, FROM DIA 10MM - 100 MM. 51100--51120, 51200--51220, 51305--51320, 51405--51420. (1). Flat-race thrust bearings: Consist of a pair of flat washers separated by the ball complement and a shaft-piloted retainer, so load capacity is limited. Contact stresses are high and torque resistance is low. The prime advantage of flat-race thrust bearings is they permit eccentricities,
