Frequently Asked Questions

Technical insights and selection guides for our high-precision angular contact ball bearings.

What is the main difference between angular contact and deep groove ball bearings?
While deep groove ball bearings are primarily designed for pure radial loads, angular contact ball bearings feature an asymmetric cross-section. This unique geometry allows them to support combined loads (significant radial and unidirectional axial loads simultaneously). For precision machine tools requiring high axial rigidity, angular contact is the mandatory choice.
How do I choose the correct preload (Light, Medium, Heavy) for my spindle bearing?
Preload eliminates internal clearance to maximize spindle rigidity and running accuracy.

Light Preload (A): Ideal for ultra-high-speed operations (e.g., grinding spindles) where minimizing heat generation is critical.
Medium/Heavy Preload (B/C): Recommended for heavy-duty milling or turning applications that require maximum stiffness to resist cutting forces.
Which lubrication method is best for ultra-high-speed angular contact bearings?
For standard industrial speeds, high-performance synthetic grease is sufficient and maintenance-free. However, when operating at ultra-high speeds (typically exceeding a dn value of 1,000,000), oil-air or oil-mist lubrication is highly recommended. These methods provide continuous cooling, reduce fluid friction, and prevent the bearing from overheating.
How can I determine the correct mounting direction for a single angular contact bearing?
Single row angular contact bearings can only accommodate axial loads in one direction. You must identify the thrust face (the thicker shoulder of the outer ring) and the non-thrust face (the thinner shoulder). The applied axial load must always push against the thick shoulder. Incorrect orientation will lead to immediate bearing failure.
