Product Overview: The 51206 Thrust Ball Bearing
The 51206 bearing is a high-quality, single-direction thrust ball bearing designed to manage axial loads with precision and reliability. As a key component in our 51200 Series, this bearing is engineered to handle thrust loads in one direction and must not be subjected to any radial load. Its design features separable components—a shaft washer, a housing washer, and a ball and cage assembly—which simplifies mounting and maintenance procedures. With dimensions of 30x52x16mm, the 51206 is a standard choice for a wide array of industrial applications requiring robust axial support.
As a specialist supplier of industrial components, we ensure our 51206 bearings meet stringent quality standards, providing long service life and consistent performance. Explore our complete range of Thrust Ball Bearings to find the perfect solution for your machinery's axial load requirements.
