Loads are defined by their direction. Loads perpendicular to the shaft are called radial loads and loads parallel to the shaft are called axial (thrust) loads.
DGBB can carry axial loads in both directions, whereas angular contact ball bearings can only carry axial loads in one direction.
Deep groove ball bearings are available in a large number of sizes with different seals, shields, cages, and greases.
Successful mounting is critical to the life cycle of your bearing. Proper bearing dismounting can safeguard other machine components and maintenance workers.
The bearing is at the heart of all rotating equipment, and the condition of the bearing often reflects how well a machine is running. Learn more about bearing damage and bearing failure – and how to prevent it.
