The design of these
bearings incorporates two (2) rows of balls into a single inner and outer
ring and accommodates a thrust load from either direction. Obviously, they
are much wider than a single row bearing and perform as if two bearings had
been installed. Double row angular contact ball bearings are made using
diverging angles of contact. The illustration shows how the opposing 30° contact angles do
not converge (come together) within the bearing’s inner ring; therefore
they are described as "diverging" or "divergent."
Double row angular contact bearings also come in either a maximum capacity
version (with filling slots) or standard (non-filling slot) types.
