Thrust bearings are rolling-element or fluid-film assemblies designed to react axial loads along a shaft axis, covering single- and double-acting configurations that employ ball, tapered-roller, or tilting-pad arrangements manufactured from through-hardened bearing steels or corrosion-resistant alloys to AS9100 and ABMA standards for gearboxes, actuators, and turbomachinery applications.
