How do Double-row Angular Contact Ball Bearing work?

Bearings are mechanisms used to reduce the friction between two objects in rotary or linear motion with each other.

In this video we will see the operation of double row angular contact ball bearings, and in the videos of this playlist you will see all kinds of bearings.

Jaes, leader in the industrial supplies sector for more than 10 years, has become the reference partner for some of the most important engineering companies by providing them with every kind of bearing.

Ball bearings are among the most widely used and well-known.
As we have seen in our previous video, single-row angular contact ball bearings support combined loads, that is, they support loads in the radial directions well, but they support axial loads in one direction only, therefore they are very often used in pairs and mounted in front of each other.

However, this solution can be cumbersome, which is why the double row angular contact ball bearings were conceived.
This kind basically consists of a coupling of two single row Oblique ball, but their inner and outer rings are fused together.
This guarantees greater solidity, and they can support radial and axial loads on their own that act in both directions.

Thanks to these features this kind of bearings are often used in combination with others of different kind to give better axial support, this is why they are used in pumps, electric motors, compressors and in all industrial applications in which the shaft is subjected to combined loads.
