INA, a brand within the Schaeffler Group, offers various types of thrust bearings to accommodate axial loads in different applications. Here are some common types of INA thrust bearings:
Axial Needle Roller Bearings: Axial needle roller bearings consist of needle rollers arranged in a cage and thrust washers with raceway grooves. They are suitable for applications with limited radial space and moderate axial loads. These bearings are commonly used in automotive transmissions, agricultural machinery, and construction equipment.
Axial Cylindrical Roller Bearings: Axial cylindrical roller bearings have cylindrical rollers arranged perpendicular to the shaft axis. They can support high axial loads and are suitable for applications with high thrust loads and moderate radial loads. These bearings are commonly used in heavy machinery, gearboxes, and crane hooks.
Axial Spherical Roller Bearings: Axial spherical roller bearings have barrel-shaped rollers and raceways in the shaft washer and housing washer. They are self-aligning and can accommodate misalignment between shaft and housing. These bearings are suitable for applications with high axial loads and moderate radial loads, such as mining equipment, steel mills, and paper mills.
Axial Angular Contact Ball Bearings: Axial angular contact ball bearings have raceways in the shaft washer and housing washer and are designed to support axial loads in one direction. They have a contact angle between the balls and raceways to optimize load distribution. These bearings are commonly used in machine tool spindles, automotive transmissions, and rotary tables.
Combined Axial/Radial Bearings: Combined axial/radial bearings, also known as axial-radial cylindrical roller bearings or crossed roller bearings, combine axial and radial bearing elements in a single unit. They can support both axial and radial loads simultaneously and are suitable for applications with high precision requirements, such as machine tool turntables, robotics, and indexing tables.
Flat Cage Assemblies: Flat cage assemblies consist of flat cages with precision guidance and needle rollers. They are suitable for use as axial bearings in conjunction with axial cylindrical roller and cage assemblies or axial needle roller and cage assemblies.
These are some of the main types of INA thrust bearings available, each designed to meet specific application requirements and operating conditions.
