Spherical Thrust Bearings

HBL Spherical Thrust bearings are manufactured with cage 29… series & without cage GEX series. Both are mostly used as the bushings under high load applications. Spherical thrust bearings cage type, also known as spherical roller thrust bearings, are specialized roller bearings designed to support very high axial loads and moderate radial loads, while also accommodating shaft misalignment and housing distortion. These bearings feature barrel-shaped (convex) rollers arranged diagonally, which allows for self-alignment and robust performance under heavy or impact loads.

Key features of Spherical Thrust Bearings :

  • Enables compensation of shaft deflection & housing misalignment
  • Enhances load distribution properly in the assembly
  • It reduces need for complex housing designs
  • Self aligning upto 1 to 2 degrees
