Thrust Bearing Design | Torque Transmission

thrust-bearing-cThrust bearings are a specific type of rotary bearing that permits rotation between parts.  Thrust bearing designs are engineered to support a predominately axial load.

Torque Transmission's cost-saving thrust bearing designs incorporate the recognized value of a molded nylon retainer, with hardened grade steel balls and washers. By combining high-grade balls with the self-lubricating property of nylon our thrust bearing designs reduce friction, reduce noise and increase durability. 

Cost Saving Features

  • Lightweight nylon retainer
  • Natural lubricity
  • Corrosion resistant
  • Extremely quiet operation.

High Quality Construction

  • Retainers are injection molded, heat stabilized 6/6 nylon held to a rigid design criteria assuring consistent quality
  • Hardened steel balls are grade 100 tolerance (±.0001", ±.0025mm)
  • The thrust washers are hardened finished to micro 10

Torque Transmission has developed thrust bearing designs for many markets and applications including automotive, aerospace, and consumer manufactured products.
