Ball thrust bearings, composed of ball bearings supported in a ring, can be used in low thrust applications where there is little radial load. Tapered roller bearings consist of small tapered rollers arranged so that their axes all converge at a point on the axis of the bearing. The length of the roller and the diameter of the wide and the narrow ends need to be carefully calculated to provide the correct taper so that each end of th
