Spherical roller thrust bearings can also bear axial load acting at the same time and allow relatively high rotating speed. Another main feature is its self-aligning capability, which allows certain shaft deflection and misalignment between the shaft and the bearing seat. This type of bearing is mainly used in oil drilling rigs, iron and steel machinery, hydraulic generators, vertical motors, propeller shafts for ships, tower cranes, extruders, reducers and other equipment.
