THRUST BEARINGS take THRUST loads, along the axis of a shaft, like a ship's propeller shaft. Therein lies the problem, you've got the definition of thrust correct but thrust bearings are not meant fo

Here is the DXeng "advanced thrust bearing" cross section. Click to last cross section picture. https://www.dxengineering.com/parts/dxe-tb-300 Definitely a better design than the Rohn TB3, and only a

Good thread on Thrust Bearings. Just got back shortly ago from a early morning Pop - N - Swap thrust bearing job for someone. 73, James Definitely a better design than the Rohn TB3, and only a little

I differ. Look closely. The vertical thrust is going right through the balls to the horizontal part of the bottom race. Radial loads are going right from the top casting to the bottom. At least until

It is pricey. The balls can't rotate on two axis at the same time so it is only one of radial, thrust or angular. I can't see top and bottom clearances but I see radial clearance. If both are there i

As an alternative suggestion.... I have been using flange mounted pillow block bearings as mast thrust bearings - first time was about 20 years ago. IMHO they are typically plenty strong - ratings ar

Matt, Great minds think alike :-) I have one similar to this one except it has a locking collar. 7K lbs axial load rating, 10K lbs radial load rating. https://www.vxb.com/2-Inch-UCF211-32-4-Bolts-Fla

Right. When I tried to lower my old mast through the TB3, I found that the boom to mast clam had distorted it enough that it wouldn't fit, making it a lot harder to get the mast down. The new one wen
