ASTM F2590 - 06e1 Standard Specification for Bearing, Roller, Thrust, Two Channeled Race Surface, Rigid or Flat Seat Type

Abstract

This specification covers requirements for rigid or flat seat type, two channeled race surface, thrust roller bearings intended for use in slow rotating or oscillating applications where pure thrust loads are applied. The thrust bearing shall be made of the specified high carbon chromium alloy steel. Requirements for (1) physical properties such as heat treatment, (2) dimensions and mass, and (3) surface finish are specified. Dimensions of retainer type, steering gear service and retainerless type, intermittent operation, are illustrated.
