Angular contact ball bearings applications

Angular Contact Ball Bearings are used in a variety of applications and equipments yet these bearings are exclusively designed and developed for carrying high radial and axial load capacities for a long time. There are three types of Angular Contact Ball Bearings, single row bearings, double row bearings and four point contact ball bearings. Besides the difference in their design and structure, they also have different applications and properties. Single row bearings are used to deliver high thrust in one direction while the double row bearings come with high thrust capacity in both directions.


Design Attributes of Angular Contact Ball Bearings

Angular Contact Ball Bearings consist of an inner ring, outer ring, balls and the cage that holds those balls at a specific angle. Because of the specific angle and geometry of both rings and their shoulders, Angular Contact Ball Bearings deliver high axial load capacity. There are many additional design attributes and options available that are applied on demand based on the application and requirement. Some of these options are special lubricants, cage material that can make a huge different in performance and durability of the apparatus and different kind of coatings.

Variations of Angular Contact Ball Bearings

Single row Angular Contact Ball Bearings are known for their performance and high accuracy. This type of bearings can carry a high axial and radial load but because of the design limitations and single row structure, single row Angular Contact Ball Bearings can only operate in one direction. On the other hand, double row Angular Contact Ball Bearings do not have this design limitation ant they can work in both directions. Four point Angular Contact Ball Bearings are made at 35 degree angle that dramatically increases their axial load capacity.


In this type of Angular Contact Ball Bearings, the inner ring is divided in two parts and this type of bearing also come with options like special lubrications, seals and shields to work in extreme environments. The most common material used in Angular Contact Ball Bearings is stainless steel while the cages are made of brass and steel.

Applications of Angular Contact Ball Bearings

As Angular Contact Ball Bearings are made with hundreds of different dimensions and there are two types of these bearings, they are used in a wide range of industries and apparatuses.

Agriculture uses of Angular Contact Ball Bearings

The needs of agriculture industry are heavy machineries and equipments, Angular Contact Ball Bearings are known for their high performance and high axial and radial load capacities that make them the ideal solution for agricultural machines.

Roller Bearing Vs Ball Bearing Differences

Image
If you wish to have some basic idea about roller bearing vs. ball bearing you are perhaps in the right place. Though we must have certainly come across roller bearing and ball bearing, we may not be aware of the main differences between the two. When you look at them, superficially you may not be able to find much difference. However in spite of similar looks they have different uses. Over the next few lines, we will try and find out the major differences between the two. How Do Bearings Work The mechanics of bearing are the same. They come with a ball which is set within an external or internal ring. When this happens, it allows the force to be applied to the ball. This is often referred to as loading. Loading can be of two types, radial loading and thrust loading. When you choose radial load, it means that the bearing will roll or rotate when it is under tension. On the other hand, when you use a thrust load, it will be subject to force depending on the a

Automotive sector boost The Demand for Ball and Roller Bearings

Image
Allowing for great versatility and flexibility, bearings are used in every  industry  that involves motion. That is to say, virtually every kind of machinery or equipment — everything from household appliances and automobile parts to aerospace and defense equipment — makes use of bearings or is made with equipment containing bearings. There are two primary types of bearings: roller bearings and ball bearings. Cylinders Roller bearings  use cylinders to maintain separation between moving parts.  Ball bearings , on the other hand, utilize balls to separate the shifting pieces. Both roller bearings and ball bearings are designed to reduce rotational friction while supporting axial and radial loads. Ball bearings operate at higher speeds than roller bearings and can handle moderate radial and axial loads. Roller bearings can achieve relatively high speeds, but are specifically designed to carry heavy radial loads. Common Bearing Applications and Uses Bearings are uniqu
