The A 7Z 7-093 is a thrust bearing set comprising a molded nylon retainer with nine balls, and two hardened CR1075 steel washers, designed for axial load support. It has a bore diameter of 15/16 inch, an outer diameter of 1-9/16 inches, and a total thickness of 1-1/4 inches. The balls are made from S.A.E 1018 steel hardened to Rc 60 minimum, and the retainer is rated for temperatures up to 250°F. The bearing supports a static load rating of 384 lbf at 15 rpm and 204 lbf at 100 rpm.
A bearing is a device that reduces friction between moving components by preventing metal-to-metal contact while assisting components (shafts, axles, and wheels) to freely rotate around a fixed axis, cutting down on heat generation and the amount of energy that is consumed. By replacing sliding motion with low-friction rolling motion, the life of the rotating components is increased. A bearing also keeps the shaft in the proper position, providing support and alignment and transferring the axial or radial loads to the housing.
The types of bearings that we offer include rolling element bearings, which consist of both ball bearings and roller bearings.
Balls are utilized as the rolling element in ball bearings; a retainer holds the balls in place and allows them to freely rotate. The balls are kept inside channels cut in both the inner and outer races. Because there is no surface contact between the balls and races, precision ball bearings have a lower load capacity for their size than other bearings.
