Angular Contact Ball Bearing

Angular contact ball bearings have raceways in the inner and outer rings that are displaced with respect to each other in the directiion of the bearing axis, so that they can accommodate combined loads, i. e. Simultaneously acting radial and axial loads.Angular contact bearings better support "combined loads" (loading in both the radial and axial directions) and the contact angle of the bearing should be matched to the relative proportions of each. The larger the contact angle (typically in the range 10 to 45 degrees), the higher the axial load supported, but the lower the radial load.Single row angular contact ball bearings are used in machine tool spindles, high frequency motors, gas turbines, centrifuges, differential pinion shaft. Double row angular contact ball bearings are used in pump, blower, air compressor, and fuel injection pumps, printing machinery.
