Bearings and Gears: Technical Quiz

Spherical roller thrust bearings and taper roller bearings can both carry thrust loads in one direction. A deep groove ball bearing rotating at 1200 rpm with radial and axial forces of 2000 N and 1500 N respectively would have a basic dynamic capacity of 54.498 kN if operating for 20,000 hours. A load acting on a bearing in its plane of rotation is called a thrust load. Stribeck's equation for determining basic static capacity of ball bearings is Kd2Z/5, where d is the roller diameter and L is the roller length.
