SKF Axial needle roller bearing AXW 20

Axial needle roller bearings AXW comprise a housing locating washer with a centring spigot into which an axial needle roller and cage assembly AXK is inserted. With the aid of the centring spigot, the housing locating washer can be precisely centred in the housing bore. This gives easier mounting of the bearings. Axial bearings with a centring spigot can only support axial loads in one direction. In order to support combined radial/axial loads, however, these bearings can be combined with drawn cup needle roller bearings with a closed end or with open ends, needle roller bearings with machined rings.
