The angle of contact in angular contact ball bearings is carefully engineered to ensure that the bearing can effectively distribute and support the applied loads. By adjusting the angle of contact, the bearing can be optimized to handle varying degrees of radial and axial loads, providing versatility and adaptability for different applications.

Thrust Bearings: Thrust bearings are designed to support axial loads and provide high axial rigidity. They come in various configurations, including ball thrust bearings, roller thrust bearings, and fluid thrust bearings. Thrust bearings are commonly used in applications such as automotive transmissions, machine tool spindles, and aerospace equipment, where axial load support and precise motion control are critical.

Angular contact ball bearings are a type of precision bearing designed to support combined radial and axial loads, as well as pure axial loads, in a specific direction. These bearings are engineered with raceways in the inner and outer rings that are designed to accommodate high-speed and high-precision applications, particularly in machinery and equipment where precise positioning and controlled motion are essential.
