Spherical Roller Thrust Bearings

Spherical roller thrust bearings can be angularly adjusted and can compensate angular misalignments between shaft and housing due to the concave outline of shaft and housing raceways and the asymmetrical barrel-shaped rollers. They can absorb very high axial forces from a single direction as well as radial forces and are suitable for relatively high speeds despite high loads. Cage, roller cage assembly and shaft washer are self-latching, so they can be assembled separately from the housing washer.
