Thrust Ball Bearing 51106 CX 30x47x11 mm

Applications of the Bearing

The 51106 CX thrust ball bearing, with dimensions 30 mm inner diameter x 47 mm outer diameter x 11 mm width, is engineered for axial load support in one direction. This type of bearing is commonly used in bearing housings, bearing units, drive units, gearboxes and industrial automation systems where stable axial positioning is required. Its design allows integration into compact assemblies within production lines, conveyor systems and machine tool applications.

Advantages of the Bearing

• The thrust ball bearing format provides optimized handling of axial loads in industrial applications, enabling reliable operation in drive trains and assemblies where standard radial bearings alone would not suffice.

• The dimensions 30x47x11 mm correspond to a widely adopted format, facilitating seamless retrofit in existing housings and simplifying procurement for maintenance or OEM supply.

• Constructed with premium bearing steel and precision manufacturing, this bearing delivers high durability, reduced downtime and an extended service life even in demanding industrial environments.

• Designed for integration into bearing units and bearing housings, streamlining stock-keeping and procurement in B2B supply chains and supporting continuous production operations.

FAQ

Q1: What is a thrust ball bearing and how does it differ from a radial bearing?
A1: A thrust ball bearing is designed to support loads parallel to the axis (axial loads) in one or two directions, whereas a radial bearing primarily supports loads perpendicular to the axis. The 51106 CX is a single-direction thrust bearing suitable for axial load handling.

Q2: Is the size 30x47x11 mm a standard format and easy to source?
A2: Yes. The format 30mm inner diameter, 47mm outer diameter and 11mm width is recognized in many industrial standard bearing catalogues for axial applications, making it straightforward for procurement and replacement.

Q3: In which industrial applications would the 51106 CX bearing be used?
A3: It’s typically used in gearboxes, drive units, bearing housings, axial support mechanisms, conveyor drives and industrial automation systems where axial load stability and compact design are critical.

Q4: Does this bearing fit into a bearing unit or bearing housing configuration?
A4: Yes. The compact yet robust design of the 51106 CX bearing allows integration into bearing housings and bearing unit assemblies, streamlining installation and maintenance processes.

Q5: What are the benefits of using this bearing in a B2B procurement context?
A5: The 51106 CX thrust ball bearing offers consistent standard dimensions, industrial-grade durability and compatibility with existing bearing housing formats. This supports efficient stock management, simplifies maintenance workflows and optimizes cost-of-ownership for industrial buyers.
