Product Overview: The 51112 Single Direction Thrust Ball Bearing
The 51112 bearing is a specialized component within our extensive 51100 Series Thrust Ball Bearings. Engineered to handle high axial (thrust) loads in one direction, this bearing is composed of a shaft washer, a housing washer, and a ball and cage assembly, all of which can be mounted separately. This separable design simplifies the mounting process and allows for easy inspection.
Ideal for applications where shafts rotate at moderate speeds and primarily experience axial forces, the 51112 bearing ensures smooth, low-friction operation. As a trusted supplier of industrial bearings and mechanical parts, we provide 51112 bearings manufactured to precise industry standards, guaranteeing reliable performance and longevity in demanding industrial environments. Explore our full range of thrust ball bearings for optimal solutions to your axial load challenges.
