Profile: Techno Overseas is a provider of industrial bearings, steel, and hardware items to all industries. Our bearing products include spherical roller, taper roller, cylindrical roller, thrust ball, precision, single row angular contact ball, and pillow block bearings. Spherical roller bearings are suitable for the high axial, impulse and heavy load applications such as paper manufacturing, rolling & other large size machinery. Tapered roller bearings are designed to support large radial and thrust loads. These loads can take the form of constant loads or shock loads. Tapered roller bearings are used in many car hubs, where they are usually mounted in pairs facing opposite directions. This gives them the ability to take thrust loads in both directions. The cutaway taper roller on the left shows the specially designed tapered rollers, and demonstrates their angular mounting which gives their dual load ability. Double row cylindrical roller bearings have a low cross section, high load carrying capacity and high stiffness. Therefore they are mainly used in machine tools, rolling mill stands, plastic calendars, grinding mills, and also large gearboxes. Thrust bearings are available mainly in two types, such as single and double thrust. Single thrust bearings consist of two rings and a set of balls in a retainer. Double thrust bearings consist of one rotating ring in the middle with two ball tracks, two sets of balls in a retainer, and two stationary rings. Tracks of balls are ground in such a way that the forces between the balls and tracks are parallel to the axis of the shaft. Single thrust bearings are designed for carrying load in one direction only; whereas double thrust can take in both directions. These bearings can never carry any radial loads. On account of the centrifugal forces on the balls, these bearings have a limitation in the speed of outer operation.
