A thrust ball bearing is a type of rotary bearing designed to support axial loads—loads that are parallel to the shaft. It consists of ball bearings sandwiched between two washers, with one washer attached to the shaft and the other to the housing. These bearings are commonly used in low-speed, low-load applications where axial alignment is crucial, such as in automotive, marine, and aerospace machinery. Thrust ball bearings are not suitable for radial loads but excel at handling axial forces efficiently.
