Double row angular contact ball bearings, with split outer ring, correspond to a pair of single row angular contact ball bearings in a face-to-face arrangement, while requiring less axial space. They can operate at very high speeds and are more suitable than deep groove ball bearings for supporting large axial forces.
Avantages
Split outer ring
Accommodate very high axial loads in both directions, radial loads, and tilting moments
Suitable where a stiff bearing arrangement is required
Require less axial space than equivalent pair of single row angular contact ball bearings
