Angular contact ball bearings are designed to accommodate combined radial and axial loads while operating at high speeds. There are several types of angular contact ball bearings, each designed for specific applications and load conditions.

Angular Contact Ball Bearing Types

Single Row Angular Contact Ball Bearings: These bearings have a single row of balls with an inner and outer ring raceway. They can accommodate axial loads in one direction and radial loads. They are typically used in pairs or sets to accommodate axial loads in both directions.

Double Row Angular Contact Ball Bearings: These bearings have two rows of balls with an inner and outer ring raceway in each row. They can accommodate axial loads in both directions as well as radial loads. They provide higher radial load-carrying capacity compared to single row angular contact ball bearings.

Four-Point Contact Ball Bearings: Also known as QJ bearings, these bearings have four points of contact between the balls and the raceways. They can accommodate axial loads in both directions as well as radial loads. They are often used in applications where there are significant axial and radial loads, such as in machine tool spindles and robotics.
