INA axial angular contact ball bearings are precision bearings for screw drive bearing arrangements. Depending on the series, they can support radial forces as well as axial forces in one or both directions. Contact seals protect the rolling element system against contamination and moisture. For higher speeds, non-contact minimal gap seals can be used.
With and without fixing holes
The INA bearings are available with and without fixing holes in the outer ring. INA bearings with holes are screw mounted directly on the adjacent construction. This solution is particularly economical since there is then no need for the locating bore that would otherwise be required or for the bearing cover with the associated matching work.
Available with less stringent tolerances
For some areas of application, a bearing arrangement of lower precision is often sufficient. For this purpose, bearings with less stringent tolerances are available.
For special requirements
INA screw drive bearing arrangements are subjected to requirements that often cannot be optimally fulfilled by the design construction of conventional bearings.
Wide product range
For the design of bearing arrangements that have high accuracy, high load carrying capacity, high rigidity, low friction, are easy to fit and maintenance-free or low-maintenance and are suitable for the highly dynamic operating conditions of threaded spindles, there is a wide range of INA and FAG axial angular contact ball bearings.
Single row and multiple row designs
Axial angular contact ball bearings are available as single, double or triple row ready-to-fit units. They are self-retaining and comprise thick-walled, geometrically stable outer rings, ball and cage assemblies and one-piece or two-piece inner rings. In several series, the outer ring has through holes for simple flange mounting of the bearing to the adjacent construction. The bearing rings are matched to each other such that a defined preload is achieved when the rings are clamped in place using a precision locknut.
Axial and radial load capacity
Due to the 60° contact angle, the bearings can support high axial forces as well as radial forces.
In X or O arrangement
In arrangements of multiple row angular contact ball bearings, a distinction is made between O, X and tandem arrangements in relation to the arrangement of contact angles. The arrangement of contact angles has an essential influence on the tilting rigidity of the bearing position.
The characteristics of the O arrangement are:
high tilting rigidity
higher critical whirling speed of the threaded spindle due to the high tilting rigidity of the bearing position
longer rating life under additional radial loads due, for example, to a belt drive.
The characteristics of the X arrangement are:
low tilting rigidity
lower critical whirling speed of the threaded spindle
shorter rating life under additional radial loads due, for example, to a belt drive.
X-life premium quality
INA axial angular contact ball bearings ZKLF and ZKLN are supplied in the X-life design. As a result of increased raceway accuracy and raceway quality, there is a significant reduction in the stress conditions present on the rolling elements and raceways under the same load, compared to the standard bearings. The improved quality gives reduced friction in the bearing and lower bearing temperatures; running resistance is lower, less strain is placed on the lubricant and the grease operating life and, where applicable, necessary relubrication intervals are extended. As a result of the lower frictional energy, there is a simultaneous increase in the energy efficiency of the bearing arrangement.
