Composition: Thrust ball bearing are make of shaft washer, house washer and ball&cage component.
The washer which matching with the shaft called shaft washer, and the washer matching with shell called house washer.
Type: According to stress, thrust ball bearing can be divided into one-way and two-way thrust ball bearing
One-way thrust ball bearing, can endure one-way axial load.
Two-way thrust ball bearing, can endure two-way axial load. The shaft washer matching to shaft, and mounting face of house washer appear spherical, the bearing can be adjustment to reduce the installation error.
Thrust ball bearing can not endure radial load,and limited speed is low.
Purpose: Only use for the machine which bear one side axial load and low speed. Such as crane hook, vertical pump, vertical centrifuge, jack, low-speed reducer. The shaft washer, house washer and roller element are separate, can be mounting separately.
