Fixed bearing
- A locating bearing is a type of bearing that prevents movement along an axis. It holds the shaft or component in a fixed position so that no axial displacement is possible.
- The design of a locating bearing typically comprises a housing or bracket and one or more bearings, which are usually balls or rollers. In a housing, the bearing is usually fixed against axial displacement by means of locating rings.
- Locating bearings are used in applications where precision and stability are required, such as in mechanical engineering, vehicle construction, construction and electronics.
- Examples of locating bearing applications include fixing shafts, gears, axles and other rotating parts in a fixed position.
- To allow for the expansion of a shaft, the bearing is often designed as a locating bearing on one side of the shaft and as a non-locating bearing on the other.
