Combined Loads
Radial and axial loads via a defined contact angle.
Angular Contact Ball Bearings
Precision bearings for combined loads and high-speed spindles.
Overview
Angular Contact Ball Bearings
Angular contact ball bearings are built to carry combined radial and axial loads and to support high-speed, high-precision operation. A defined contact angle enables axial load capacity in one direction, and paired arrangements handle loads in both directions — making them a staple of machine-tool spindles and precision equipment.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a contact angle?
It is the angle at which load is transmitted through the balls to the raceways; a larger angle increases axial load capacity.
Can they support loads in both directions?
A single bearing supports axial load in one direction; mounting a matched pair supports axial loads in both directions.
Are they suitable for spindles?
Yes. Their precision and rigidity make them a standard choice for machine-tool spindles and high-speed applications.
Which brands can I order?
We supply angular contact ball bearings from SKF, FAG, NSK, NTN, KOYO, NACHI and quality Chinese and German brands.
