234711-M-SP FAG - Thrust Ball Bearing 57x90x44

Double Direction Thrust Ball Bearing for High Axial Loads

High Stiffness and Precision Performance

Professional Solution for Industrial Applications

Technical Specification and Application

The 234711-M-SP FAG 57x90x44 is a precision double direction thrust ball bearing designed to support high axial loads in both directions. Its construction features two rows of balls and precision-ground shaft and housing washers, ensuring excellent axial rigidity and stable positioning accuracy.

With dimensions 57x90x44 mm, this bearing is commonly used in machine tool spindles, presses, precision gear systems, and other high-performance industrial assemblies. Unlike a standard deep groove ball bearing, which primarily supports radial loads, a thrust ball bearing is specifically engineered for axial load applications. This design provides high durability and consistent axial stiffness under heavy thrust forces.

The M-SP designation indicates a brass cage (M) and increased precision class (SP), making this bearing suitable for high-accuracy industrial applications. It is often combined with a radial bearing within a complete bearing unit, where the thrust bearing carries axial loads and the radial bearing supports radial forces. Proper integration within a housing assembly ensures optimal alignment and long service life.

Thanks to optimized contact geometry and tight manufacturing tolerances, the 234711-M-SP delivers low vibration levels, precise axial guidance, and reliable operation in continuous-duty environments. It is an ideal choice for machine builders and maintenance teams requiring predictable performance and precision stability.
