    Washers

    Small but mighty, our thinnest rolling thrust bearings slot into tight spaces and spin at whirring speeds. Their long, slender rollers support thrust loads and reduce friction in everything from machine tool spindles to gearboxes.
    A cage holds the rollers in place. You can install these bearings without washers between hardened, ground surfaces for the thinnest profile. If you’re working with unhardened, unground surfaces, you’ll need two washers for the rollers to run on. This three-piece design is easy to lubricate, but the oil will attract dust and grime since it’s exposed.
    Steel—Strong and wear resistant. However, these bearings are best for dry environments since moisture will cause them to rust.

    Quick-Grip Screw-Clamp Bushings

    Also known as Trantorque bushings, these tighten with a twist of the collar nut—no screws needed. As you tighten the collar nut, the inner sleeve contracts onto the shaft and the outer sleeve expands to hold your sprocket, pulley, or gear.

    Oil-Embedded Thrust Bearings

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Thrust Bearings. Oil-Embedded Thrust Bearings.
    Our simplest-to-use thrust bearings, with no moving parts and no need to lubricate. Their porous surface releases oil over time, so you can install and forget them. While they run in most conditions, oil may drip away if temperatures climb too high. For extremely hot environments, consider graphite-lubricated bearings. All are fabricated, lubricated, and inspected in the U.S.
    841 Bearing Bronze—A balance of strength and speed makes these bearings a good choice for most applications. Also known as SAE 841 bearing bronze.
    High-Load 863 Iron Copper—Iron makes these bearings harder, stronger, and more resistant to sudden starts and stops than 841 bearing bronze. However, they run at slower speeds. The increased iron content also makes them appear silver.
    Synthetic Oil Base—A high-quality lubricant makes all the difference. Synthetic oil is less sensitive to temperature changes than mineral oil, so it won't get runny and leak away if the bearing heats up.

    Thrust Bearings

    With no moving parts, these bearings are the plainest way to support thrust loads while reducing friction. They don't come with lubricant, so you can choose the oil that's best for your application. Make sure to mount them where they're easy to access, since you'll need to replenish the oil frequently. All are fabricated and inspected in the U.S.
    High-Load 932 Bearing Bronze—Cast from an alloy of leaded tin bronze for uniform rigidity and strength. Also known as 660 leaded bronze.
    High-Load Chemical-Resistant 954 Bearing Bronze—The addition of iron and aluminum makes these bearings strong and exceptionally chemical resistant. You'll find them in demanding environments, such as salt mines. Also known as aluminum bronze.

    Washers for Needle-Roller Thrust Bearings

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Thrust Roller Bearing Washers.
    These hardened steel washers protect softer shafts and housings from the rolling contact of needle rollers. Without them, needle rollers can indent and score unhardened surfaces, leading to premature wear and bearing failure. Positioned between the bearing and each mating surface, these washers distribute thrust loads evenly and extend service life. They adapt needle-roller thrust bearings for unhardened, unground surfaces.

    Ultra-Low-Friction Oil-Embedded Thrust Bearings

    Our slipperiest metal thrust bearings glide on machines with frequent starts and stops, such as conveyors. Their oil contains nonstick PTFE particles that reduce wear and heat, extending the life of your equipment. All are fabricated, lubricated, and inspected in the U.S.
