Angular Contact Ball Bearing

 In angular contact ball bearings, the forces are transmitted from one raceway to the other at a specific contact angle (oblique to the radial plane). The bearings are therefore suitable for radial and axial loads acting simultaneously. As the nominal contact angle increases, so does the axial load carrying capacity. As a result, angular contact ball bearings are more suitable than deep groove ball bearings for supporting higher axial forces.The bearings are available in a single row design as single bearings or as a pair of universal bearings as well as in a double row design.

Angular Contact Ball Bearing

Single Row

Single-row angular contact ball bearings are self-retaining units with solid inner and outer rings and ball and cage assemblies with polyamide, sheet metal or brass cages. The raceways of the inner and outer rings are offset from each other along the bearing axis. The bearings are available in open and sealed designs. Their angular adjustment facility is very limited.

Angular Contact Ball Bearing

Double Row

Double-row angular contact ball bearings are units with solid inner and outer rings and ball and cage assemblies with polyamide, brass or sheet-steel cages. Their construction is similar to a pair of single-row angular contact ball bearings in an O arrangement, but they are narrower to a certain extent. They differ in the size of the contact angle and the design of the bearing rings

Axial

Double-direction axial angular contact ball bearings are precision bearings without self-retention and with restricted tolerances to class SP. They comprise solid-shaft locating washers, spacer rings, housing locating washers and ball and cage assemblies with solid brass cages. The bearing parts are matched to each other and can be fitted separately, but must not be interchanged with parts from bearings of the same size.

Angular Contact Ball Bearing

Four-point

Four-point contact bearings are single-row angular contact ball bearings, which require less axial space than double-row designs. They consist of solid outer rings, split inner rings, and ball and cage assemblies made of brass or polyamide. The split inner rings allow more balls to be accommodated, but the inner ring halves are specific to each bearing and should not be interchanged. The outer ring and ball-cage assembly can be mounted separately from the inner ring halves.
