Angular contact thrust ball bearings in the NTN AXN line handle forces that run along the shaft axis. Part numbers such as AXN2052, AXN3570 and AXN5090 each represent a separate size, so the complete designation is the reference you need when ordering a replacement.

How the load path works: in this design the balls sit at an angle, so the axial force travels through them at an incline rather than straight down the axis. That arrangement gives the bearing good rigidity in the axial direction. It is not intended to carry meaningful radial force, which is why a second bearing on the same shaft usually takes that duty.

Reading the code: every designation starts with AXN and continues with four digits, as in AXN2052 or AXN4580. Larger numbers correspond to larger bearings, and no two part numbers share the same dimensions. Before substituting one for another, check bore diameter, outside diameter and width against the bearing you are removing.

Mounting practice: the bearing seats against a shoulder on the shaft and a matching shoulder in the housing, and both surfaces need to be clean, flat and square to the shaft. Force should be applied only to the ring being fitted, never transmitted through the balls, and impacts should be avoided. When the supporting faces are not perpendicular, the load concentrates in one area and service life drops.

Lubrication and adjustment: select the lubricant according to the speed and temperature of the application, and set the assembly following the manufacturer's instructions. These bearings are commonly paired with a radial bearing on the same shaft, so check both during assembly.

Quoting: send the full part number, for example AXN4075, together with the quantity by WhatsApp or email. If the number is not clear, the dimensions of the bearing being replaced are enough for us to identify it. Our team responds promptly and can suggest equivalents.
