CW Bearing Angular Contact Ball Bearings are designed to accommodate both radial and axial loads, making them ideal for applications that require high precision and stability. Their unique geometry features offset raceways and shoulders, allowing for optimal load distribution and enhanced performance under various conditions. The exceptional design and quality make these bearings essential components in many engineering applications, offering superior performance for axial and radial loads while ensuring reliability and precision.
Features & Benefits
- Asymmetrical Design: Unlike deep groove bearings, these bearings have an offset arrangement, providing better support for axial loads.
- Contact Angle: Available in various contact angles (typically 15°, 25°, or 40°), which directly influence load-carrying capacity and performance.
- High Precision: Engineered for high precision applications, ensuring minimal runout and consistent performance.
- Robust Construction: Made from high-quality materials, with precision profiles for improved durability and resistance to wear.
- Single or Double Row Options: Available in single-row or double-row configurations to suit different load requirements and space constraints.
- Enhanced Load Capacity: The design allows for increased axial load capacity, making them suitable for high-stress applications.
- Improved Stability: Excellent performance under combined loads, providing greater stability in rotating machinery.

Single Row
Single row angular contact ball bearings are ideal for large radial and axial loads with high speeds. Like deep groove ball bearings, they are self-retaining. However, single-row angular contact ball bearings are only suitable for axial forces in one direction.
Axial forces on both sides can be accommodated by a second, mirror-image angular contact ball bearing. Do you need a complex special solution for your application? Our experts will take a holistic view of your system and provide you with a customized solution.
Advantages
- Individual adjustment of radial and axial load capacity
- High speeds possible for higher loads
- Quiet, low-vibration operation
- Maximum energy efficiency
- Reliability even under difficult operating conditions
- Long service life
- Low maintenance / greased for life
- Minimal total cost of ownership Also available as miniature bearing

Double Row
The well-known ball bearing advantages, such as very smooth running, also apply to double row angular contact ball bearings. For higher radial and axial loads as well as limited installation space, the double row angular contact ball bearing is the perfect choice. The O arrangement of the contact angles makes them suitable for axial forces in both directions.
Tilting moments can be accommodated for a rigid bearing arrangement. Our experts can provide you with a customized solution.
Advantages
- Individual adjustment of radial and axial load carrying capacity possible
- Higher load carrying capacity than a comparable single row angular contact ball bearing
- Smaller installation space than two comparable single-row bearings
- Quiet, low-vibration running
- Long operating life
- Low maintenance / greased for life
- Minimal total cost of ownership
