Product Overview: The 51107 Thrust Ball Bearing
The 51107 bearing is a precision-engineered component designed specifically to manage axial (thrust) loads in a single direction. As a vital part of our 51100 Series, this bearing is a fundamental solution within our broader Thrust Ball Bearings collection. It features standard dimensions of a 35mm bore diameter, a 52mm outer diameter, and a 12mm thickness. The design consists of three separable parts: a shaft washer, a housing washer, and a ball and cage assembly, which simplifies mounting and dismounting procedures. This makes the 51107 an ideal choice for applications where high axial rigidity and load-bearing capacity are essential.
As a leading supplier of industrial bearings, we ensure our 51107 bearings are manufactured to the highest industry standards, delivering reliable performance and longevity. This bearing is crucial for maintaining operational integrity in various machinery by preventing axial movement and reducing friction under thrust loads. Explore our complete range of thrust bearings to find the perfect component for your specific industrial application.
