How the 51407 model number is decoded
In the 51400-series (ISO 104 dimension series) the leading digits 514 mark a single-direction thrust ball bearing and the last two digits encode the bore: 51407 carries bore code 07 = 35 mm. The ISO 104 boundary dimensions are 35 mm bore, 80 mm outside diameter and 32 mm height. Two flat washers (shaft and housing) and a ball cage assembly allow the bearing to carry pure axial load in one direction while accommodating minor misalignment.
Typical equipment & failure modes
Common applications
- industrial fan axial restraint
- electric motor axial positioning
- pump and compressor thrust support
- gearbox axial load management
Known failure patterns
- false brinelling from vibration while the shaft is stationary
- smearing or scoring from marginal lubrication at start-up
- raceway indentation from static overload or improper mounting force
Selection pitfalls — read before you substitute
- At a 35 mm bore, check shaft shoulder runout before fitting 51407; a skewed shoulder tilts the shaft washer and concentrates load on a few balls.
- The 514xx heavy section at 35 mm bore (80 mm OD) is built for high-load, lower-speed duty; specifying it in a high-rpm application gives excess heat and short grease life — use 511/512 there.
- Single-direction thrust ball bearings carry load in one direction only; for bidirectional thrust use a double-direction bearing or two single-direction units back-to-back.
- Minimum axial load is required to prevent ball skidding: at very light loads the balls slide rather than roll, causing smearing and early failure.
Frequently asked questions
What are the dimensions of a 51407 thrust ball bearing?
A 51407 thrust ball bearing has a 35 mm bore, 80 mm outside diameter and 32 mm height, per ISO 104 boundary dimensions. It consists of a shaft washer, housing washer and ball cage assembly.
How does the 51407 bore code work?
The last two digits of 51407 are bore code 07, giving 07 × 5 = 35 mm bore. The 80 mm outside diameter and 32 mm height follow the ISO 104 dimension series, not the bore code alone.
Can a 51407 thrust ball bearing carry radial load?
No. Single-direction thrust ball bearings carry axial load only. Any radial component must be supported by a separate radial bearing (deep-groove, cylindrical roller or spherical roller).
How does the 51400 compare with other thrust series at the same 35 mm bore?
The 514xx is the heavy section: 80×32 mm, 22.5 mm radial section at 35 mm bore — the highest-capacity single-direction thrust option here, aimed at lower-speed, high-load shafts.
