What makes heavy-duty bearings different from standard bearings?

Heavy-duty bearings feature thicker walls, stronger materials, and higher load capacity. They can withstand demanding environments and constant use, while standard bearings are typically intended for lighter-duty applications.

Do you manufacture custom heavy wall bearings?

Yes. We can produce heavy wall bearings to exact dimensions, including nonstandard sizes. Our in-house tooling and machining capabilities allow us to match unique project requirements without compromising quality.

Can you replace or replicate bearings for older equipment?

Absolutely. If you provide a drawing, sample, or specifications, we can reverse-engineer and manufacture heavy-duty bearings that match the original part and fit seamlessly into your equipment.

Industrial Thrust Bearings

Thrust bearings are precision components engineered to support axial loads and reduce friction between rotating and stationary parts. Quad Industries manufactures thrust bearings to exact specifications, ensuring reliable performance in demanding industrial applications. Our precision machining capabilities allow us to produce thrust bearings that meet tight tolerances and rigorous quality standards. We build them in steel-backed Babbitt and machine each one to your print in a plain or plated finish.

Material, Finishes and Size Range

Every thrust bearing we produce is made to order in steel-backed Babbitt, with the steel carrying the load and the Babbitt giving the collar a conformable running face. Choose a plain finish for straightforward service or a plated finish for added corrosion resistance. Send us your print and we will confirm the dimensions.

Material:

Steel-backed Babbitt

Available finishes:

Plain (non-plated)
Plated
