Ideal for high speeds and light loads, Timken thrust ball bearings are commonly found in high precision applications.
Timken thrust ball bearings have a low coefficient of friction, allowing them to run cooler, even at high speeds. They are also less sensitive to misalignment.
Although Timken thrust ball bearings were designed for thrust loading, they can also accommodate some radial loading.
The rolling elements are manufactured as standard from precision ground steel balls, with hardened steel races and a bronze cage. However, other materials are available upon request.
Timken thrust ball bearings are commonly found in fluid control valves, oil and gas rotary tables and machine spindles.
