- Type: Axial needle roller and cage thrust assembly with thrust washers (AXK plus AS)
- Load: Heavy axial loads in one direction; minimal radial load capacity
- Cage: Steel cage holding needle rollers
- Performance: High axial stiffness and load capacity in tight space
- Construction: Roller and cage thrust unit plus two thin thrust washers
- Use cases: Gearbox thrust support, pump/compressor axial support, machine tool thrust points, industrial drives
- Note: Requires matching raceways on shaft/housing with correct washers, and proper lubrication for long life.
The AXK 130170 thrust needle roller and cage assembly with accompanying 2AS thrust washers is a compact axial needle bearing set designed to take high axial loads in one direction while saving space in machines and equipment. These bearings are built with many small rollers held in a stable cage that runs against flat washer raceways. With the right washers fitted on shaft and housing faces, this set can support heavy axial thrust where traditional bearings would be too tall or bulky.
Key Features
-
High axial load carrying capacity in a low-profile unit
-
Stable, stiff roller and cage design for reliable thrust support
-
Includes thrust washers (2AS) to complete bearing raceways
-
Minimal axial space needed compared with larger bearings
-
Steel cage and bearing steel rollers for durability
Common Applications
Axial thrust bearings like this are used in gearboxes, transmissions, rotary tables, pump thrust supports, compressors, and industrial presses where strong axial force needs to be taken in one direction with limited axial space.
Selection Notes
Make sure the shaft and housing faces are properly machined and hardened to serve as raceways with the supplied 2AS washers. Confirm the bore (130 mm), outer diameter (170 mm), and thickness (5 mm for the AXK cage unit and ~1 mm for each AS washer) match your design space. These bearings work best with adequate lubrication and alignment to avoid uneven wear and heat build‑up.
