Product Overview: The AXK 5070 Thrust Needle Roller Bearing
The AXK 5070 is a high-precision thrust needle roller and cage assembly designed to handle heavy axial loads in applications where space is limited. With a bore diameter of 50mm, an outer diameter of 70mm, and a remarkably low cross-sectional height of 4mm, this bearing offers a compact and efficient solution for managing thrust forces. As a key component in our Thrust Needle Roller Bearings collection, the AXK 5070 is engineered to provide high rigidity and performance.
This bearing assembly consists of a cage that retains and guides the needle rollers, ensuring smooth, reliable operation at high rotational speeds. The components are separable, simplifying the mounting process and allowing for individual lubrication. For optimal performance, the AXK 5070 is typically used with AS series thrust washers, which serve as raceways.
