Spherical roller bearings are utilized in a wide range of applications due to their unique design and load-bearing capabilities. Some common uses of spherical roller bearings include:

A cylindrical roller bearing is a type of rolling-element bearing that is designed to provide support for heavy radial loads and moderate axial loads. It consists of cylindrical rollers held in place by inner and outer rings, with the rollers positioned parallel to the axis of the bearing. Cylindrical roller bearings are widely used in various applications where high load-carrying capacity and rigidity are required.

- Thrust bearings, on the other hand, are designed to support axial loads within the engine or machinery. In an engine, thrust bearings are typically located at the end of the crankshaft to counteract the axial forces generated by the engine's operation. They are responsible for maintaining the axial position of the crankshaft and preventing it from moving forward or backward.

Angular contact ball bearings are a type of precision bearing designed to support combined radial and axial loads, as well as pure axial loads, in a specific direction. These bearings are engineered with raceways in the inner and outer rings that are designed to accommodate high-speed and high-precision applications, particularly in machinery and equipment where precise positioning and controlled motion are essential.
