Combined needle roller/ball thrust bearing SKF NKX 40 Z

These bearings consist of a radial needle roller bearing combined with a thrust ball bearing. Together they can accommodate both radial loads and axial loads in one direction. In addition, they can operate at relatively high speeds. Their low cross-sectional height makes the bearings particularly suitable for applications where other types of locating bearing arrangements occupy too much space. The thrust part is capped with a cover that forms a gap-type seal to retain the grease in the bearings.
