Centripetal thrust ball bearings, bearings of this construction can withstand radial loads and axial loads in one direction. Find a contact angle of 40 degrees with the inner and outer rings at 15 degrees, 25 degrees, and 30 degrees. The greater the contact angle, the greater the axial load bearing capacity. The smaller the contact angle, the more advantageous for high speed rotation. Usually, the two bearings are opposed to each other and the internal clearance is adjusted.


The point of the two-way thrust angular contact ball bearing is a combined load that can simultaneously bear both radial and axial loads, limiting the axial displacement of the shaft in both aspects. It consists of an outer ring, an inner ring, a steel ball, and a cage, and can work stably at a higher speed. It should be noted during installation that although the bearing can withstand two-way axial load, if there is a ball gap on the side, care should be taken not to let the main axial load pass through the notched side groove. The accuracy of thrust angular contact ball bearings is much higher than that of thrust ball bearings, and the speed that can be withstand is much higher. It can be used as a spindle bearing.


So summed up, the difference between the two is:

1. The radial thrust ball bearings and thrust ball bearings cannot withstand radial forces, while angular contact ball bearings can withstand both radial and axial forces.

2. Thrust ball bearings are much more capable of withstanding axial forces than angular contact ball bearings (about twice).

3. The bearing accuracy of the thrust angular contact ball is much higher than that of the thrust ball bearing, and the speed that can be withstood is much higher, which can be used as a spindle bearing.
