Product Overview: The 51210 Thrust Ball Bearing
The 51210 bearing is a high-quality, single-direction thrust ball bearing designed to manage purely axial loads in one direction. As a key component in our 51200 Series and the broader Thrust Ball Bearings collection, it is engineered for precision and reliability. This bearing consists of three separable parts: a shaft washer, a housing washer, and a ball and cage assembly, which simplifies mounting and dismounting. With a bore diameter of 50mm, an outer diameter of 78mm, and a thickness of 22mm, the 51210 is an industry-standard solution for applications where radial loads are handled separately.
As a premier supplier of industrial components, we ensure our 51210 bearings provide consistent performance and durability. They are crucial for maintaining rotational accuracy in machinery subjected to high axial forces, making them an essential part for various industrial setups.
Key Features of the 51210 Bearing
- Axial Load Capacity: Specifically designed to accommodate high axial loads in a single direction.
- Separable Components: The shaft washer, housing washer, and ball cage assembly can be mounted independently, facilitating easy installation and maintenance.
- High Precision: Manufactured to tight tolerances to ensure smooth and accurate rotational movement.
- Durable Construction: Made from premium-grade bearing steel for excellent hardness, wear resistance, and a long operational lifespan.
- Interchangeable Design: Adheres to international standards, allowing for easy replacement and sourcing.
- Low Friction: The ball and cage assembly is designed to minimize rotational friction, improving efficiency and reducing heat generation.
