Product Overview: The 51120 Thrust Ball Bearing
The 51120 bearing is a high-performance component within our 51100 Series of Thrust Ball Bearings, engineered to manage substantial axial loads. With precise dimensions of 100mm bore diameter, 135mm outer diameter, and 27mm thickness, this bearing is specifically designed to accommodate thrust forces acting along the shaft axis, rather than radial loads. Its design typically consists of a shaft washer, a housing washer, and a ball and cage assembly, allowing for smooth, low-friction rotation under pressure.
As a key offering in our range of industrial bearings and mechanical parts, the 51120 thrust ball bearing is manufactured to exacting standards, ensuring reliability and longevity in demanding industrial applications. It is particularly crucial in machinery where heavy axial forces are present, providing stable and efficient operation. Explore our comprehensive selection of thrust ball bearings to find the ideal solution for your axial load requirements.
