Cummins 130083 Thrust Bearing
Cummins 130083 Thrust Bearing
Product Description:
-
A thrust bearing is a specialized type of bearing designed to support axial loads — that is, forces parallel to the shaft — while allowing smooth rotation.
-
Unlike radial bearings, which handle forces perpendicular to the shaft, thrust bearings are engineered to manage the end thrust generated by rotating components such as shafts, gears, or propellers.
-
Thrust bearings are typically constructed from high-quality hardened steel or alloy materials and may use rolling elements (like balls or rollers) or plain surfaces, depending on the application.
-
They are precisely machined to provide low friction, high load-carrying capacity, and minimal wear under continuous axial stress.
- Common types include ball thrust bearings, cylindrical roller thrust bearings, tapered roller thrust bearings, and fluid-film thrust bearings.
- They are widely used in automotive engines (e.g., crankshaft thrust bearings), transmissions, turbines, marine propeller shafts, industrial machinery, and heavy equipment.
