T4AR537 M4CT537 Tandem Thrust Bearings for Extruder Gearboxes

Tandem Thrust bearings are also known as “Multi-Stage cylindrical roller thrust bearings” . 

Tandem Thrust bearings are comprised of "stages" which include precision ground and matched thrust plates. These bearings also include compression sleeves separated by cylindrical roller assemblies. This design enables the Tandem Thrust bearings to provide a solution in a radial restricted envelope. The bearings are available in multiple stages, 2-8 to accommodate your design requirements. Depending on your preference, these bearings are available in a wide variety of sizes and options.

TandemThrust Bearings can receive heavy load in a limited space and support firmly in the direction of axis and last long with low frictional power. In addition, these bearings are moved by oil lubrication. Also thesetandem thrust bearings are used principally in gear boxes for single & twin screw extruders in the rubber and plastic industries.

1.Multi-stage cylindrical roller thrust bearing (basic type) adopts elastic spacer to connect the shaft washer,housing washer, roller and cage assembly.

The components of this Thrust Bearings are demountable. The user should assemble or dismount the bearing meticulously according to numeral order we provide.

2. Multi-stage cylindrical roller thrust bearing (shaft type) is made by penetrating an axis through theinner bore of basic type multi-stage cylindrical roller thrust bearing and fastening the bearing to the axis by locking collar. The components of this type of cylindrical roller thrust bearing are inseparable.

3. Multi-stage cylindrical roller thrust bearing (sleeve type) locking collar is made by covering a sleeveto the external of the basic type multi-stage cylindrical roller thrust bearing.It is also inseparable,and is assembled and disassembled as a whole.

Multi-Stage cylindrical roller thrust bearings(Tandem bearings) has the characteristics of limited radial space, high axial forces, equal support of all the rows of rollers and long operating life, and is the ideal spindle of parallel screw extruder.

The tandem bearings provided by our institute has the following types: double rows, three rows, four rows, five rows, six rows and eight rows, we also provided bearings with shaft and sleeve barrel. Customers can have their own selections according to center distance of screws, space and load (Figure 1~3). We also accept the orders of other dimensions.
