Deep Groove Ball Bearing

Deep groove ball bearings are the most common used today. These bearings can support axial loads in both directions as well as radial loads, even at high speeds. They are offered in open and sealed designs. The sealed bearings are pre-lubricated. These bearings are not designed for applications where misalignment can occur.
Picture

flange bearing

These bearings are typically deep groove ball bearings with a raised flange on one end for the purpose of correct alignment during installation. The design allows for axial loads in both directions as well as radial loads at high speeds.
Picture

Spherical Roller Bearing

These bearings have two rows of spherical rollers set inside a spherical outer raceway. The design allows for normal operation even in cases where the shaft is misaligned or shaft flexing can occur. These bearings can support axial forces in both directions and high radial forces.
Picture

Self Aligning Ball Bearing

These bearings have a spherical outer raceway and two rows of ball bearings mounted in a spherical ring. The design allows for misalignment or flexing in the shaft similar to the spherical roller bearing. The difference being that these bearings are designed specifically to support radial loads and cannot support heavy axial loads.

Cylindrical Roller Bearing

These bearings are offered in single, double and 4 row designs. They can support heavy radial loads and high speeds. The design can handle light axial loads depending on the bearing design, but are not intended for axial loads.
Picture

Tapered Roller Bearing

These bearings have a tapered inner ring and a tapered outer raceway. Single row tapered bearings can support radial loads and axial loads in one direction. Double row bearings an support heavier loads and also support axial loads in both directions as well as radial loads.
Picture

Pillow Block Bearing

These bearings are placed inside a housing that can be bolted into place. They are typically used in clean environments and are not designed for heavy loads. The design of this bearing is intended for radial loads.
Picture

Angle Contact Bearing

These bearings have raceways in an inner and outer ring that are displaced with respect to each other in the direction of the bearing axis. The design allows for support of both radial and axial loads.
Picture

Thrust Roller Bearing

These bearings have two rows of spherical rollers between a sphered raceway in the inner and outer rings. The design allows for some shaft flexing and misalignment and can support axial loads in both directions as well as radial loads.
Picture

Thrust Ball  Bearing

These bearings consist of ball and cage assembly that resides in between two washers. The design can support relatively high axial loads and are available to allow for single and double direction rotation. These bearings are not intended for high speed applications.
Picture

needle bearing

These bearings are similar to cylindrical roller bearing. The difference in these bearings is the ratio of the diameter of the rollers to the length of the rollers and typically do not have an inner race. The shaft itself acts as the inner race. The design allows for a much more compact bearing that can support heavy radial loads.
