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.
