Needle roller and cage thrust assembly
Needle roller and cage thrust assemblies are designed to accommodate heavy axial loads and peak loads in one direction. They provide a high degree of stiffness within a minimum axial space. In applications where the faces of adjacent machine components serve as raceways, needle roller thrust bearings take up no more space than a conventional thrust washer. The bearings can also be combined with bearing washers to create complete bearings.

• High axial load carrying capacity
• High stiffness
• Long service life
• Require minimal axial space
• Can be combined with bearing washers
