Angular contact ball bearings are designed to transmit mechanical forces at a specific angle from one raceway of the bearing to another. These types of bearings are capable of supporting radial and axial loads simultaneously. This way, angular contact ball bearings are better alternatives to deep ball groove bearings where higher axial force is involved.
Types of angular contact ball bearings
Angular contact ball bearings can be broadly categorised into two types, which are:
Single row angular contact ball bearings: These types of angular contact ball bearings are ideal for applications where supporting combined loads is a necessity. They are also capable of sustaining moderate to high axial loads on a single side.
Double row angular contact ball bearings: These types of angular contact ball bearings are particularly effective for applications that demand simultaneous radial and axial loads.
Applications
Angular contact bearings have a multitude of applications, which include:
