Ball Bearings
Angular Contact Ball Bearing
Designed for combined loads where high axial forces must be transferred in addition to radial forces, featuring a defined contact angle for optimal load distribution.
Technical Overview
Angular Contact Ball Bearings are characterised by a contact angle between the ball and raceway. This means that forces are transferred from one raceway to the other at a particular angle, making them particularly suitable for combined loads where high axial forces must be transferred in addition to radial forces. ANDE angular contact ball bearings are manufactured from premium chrome steel with precision-ground raceways and optimized contact geometry. They are available in single-row, double-row, and matched pair configurations for applications requiring high-speed capability and precise shaft guidance in machine tools, pumps, and industrial equipment.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q1What contact angles are available for ANDE angular contact ball bearings?
ANDE offers angular contact ball bearings with standard contact angles of 15°, 25°, and 40°. A 15° angle is best for high-speed applications, 25° provides a good balance of radial and axial capacity, and 40° is optimal for heavy axial loads.
Q2Can angular contact ball bearings be used as single bearings?
Single-row angular contact ball bearings can only support axial loads in one direction, so they are typically used in pairs (back-to-back or face-to-face) or combined with another bearing to handle axial loads in both directions. Double-row versions can handle bidirectional axial loads as a single unit.
