Product Overview: The 51336 Thrust Ball Bearing
The 51336 Thrust Ball Bearing is a high-capacity component specifically engineered to manage heavy axial (thrust) loads in one direction. With dimensions of 180x300x95mm, this bearing is a vital part of our 51300 Series within the broader Thrust Ball Bearings collection. Its design consists of two precision-machined washers (a shaft washer and a housing washer) with grooved raceways, and a ball and cage assembly. This separable construction simplifies mounting and dismounting, making it a practical choice for a wide range of industrial applications requiring robust axial support.
As a specialist supplier of industrial mechanical parts, we guarantee that our 51336 bearings meet stringent industry standards for performance and durability. These bearings are designed to provide reliable operation in applications where no radial load is present, ensuring smooth, low-friction rotational movement under significant thrust forces.
