Thrust roller bearing is used to carry axial load of axial, radial joint load, the radial load shall not exceed 55% of the axial load. Compared with other thrust roller bearings, the bearing friction factor is low, high speed, and has a self-aligning performance.

Thrust cylindrical roller bearings, thrust taper roller bearing is suitable for low speed, speed slightly higher than the thrust tapered roller bearing thrust cylindrical roller bearings. Separated type thrust cylindrical roller bearing is a bearing and can only carry axial load one-way and slight shock, to restrict axis (or shell) in one direction axial displacement, thus can be used as a one-way axial positioning. But its carrying capacity is far greater than thrust ball bearing. Due to linear velocity is different on both ends of the roller, roller rolling make the roller in the roll ring road inevitably produces sliding, as a result, this kind of bearing limit rotational speed is low thrust ball bearing, usually only suitable for low speed occasion.
