KT-Bearings for High Axial Forces

Thrust Ball Bearings Sealed - KT-Bearings for High Axial Forces
Our thrust ball bearings sealed (KT-bearings) are specially designed for high axial loads. These single-acting, single-row axial ball bearings provide a reliable solution for axial forces combined with slow rotational and pivoting movements. The sealed design makes them the ideal choice for demanding industrial applications.

What is a Thrust Bearing? - Design and Function
Thrust bearings (also called axial bearings) are rolling bearings that exclusively accommodate axial forces. Our KT-bearings consist of two precisely manufactured thrust rings, a matching housing and hardened rolling elements. The thrust rings are made of case-hardened steel in the standard version.

These thrust ball bearings sealed are specifically designed for high axial loads and offer reliable function through their robust construction. For applications with low axial deformation tolerances, we are happy to advise you on suitable alternatives or special designs.

Applications of Axial Ball Bearings
Thrust bearings are used in many industrial sectors. Typical applications for our KT-bearings include:

Automation technology
