Thrust ball bearings are a common type of bearing. It mainly consists of a seat ring, a shaft ring, and a steel ball retainer assembly. It is necessary to evaluate thrust ball bearings when purchasing them. The material analysis of thrust ball bearings below can help people further understand thrust ball bearings, master knowledge of thrust ball bearings, and make more suitable choices. Thrust ball bearing is a type of separable bearing, where the collar and seat ring can be separated from the components of the cage and steel ball. The collar is a ring that matches the shaft, and the seat ring is a ring that matches the bearing seat hole. There is a gap between the shafts. Thrust ball bearings can only withstand axial loads, unidirectional thrust ball bearings can only withstand axial loads in one direction, and bidirectional thrust ball bearings can withstand axial loads in two directions. Thrust roller bearings are used to withstand axial and radial combined loads, with axial load being the main load, but radial load not exceeding 55% of axial load. Compared with other thrust roller bearings, this type of bearing has a lower friction coefficient, higher rotational speed, and self-aligning performance. Thrust ball bearings are typically made of steel, but not all steels are suitable. This type of mechanical hardware accessory is usually made of bearing steel because it is more ideal. Bearing steel has high and uniform hardness, wear resistance, and high elasticity. Bearing steel has strict requirements for the uniformity of chemical composition, the content and distribution of non-metallic inclusions, and the distribution of carbides. It is one of the very strict types in all steel production. The difference between thrust ball bearings and deep groove ball bearings is that they have different structures. Structurally speaking, although both are ball bearings with similar basic structures, deep groove ball bearings have a larger and deeper radius, which also results in structural differences. 2、 The application fields of thrust ball bearings and deep groove ball bearings are different. Thrust ball bearings are widely used in industrial machinery fields such as automotive and machine tool processing, while deep groove ball bearings have more special applications such as petroleum, aerospace, and food processing.
