Thrust washers - Bearings and bearings housing INA
Plain thrust washers (bearings) are simple, single-piece elements without rolling components, operating through sliding contact where the shaft moves against the washer surface. They offer an economical and reliable solution that requires minimal installation space and is easy to mount. Compared to rolling bearings, they have lower speed and load-carrying capacity. Their main applications include rotary, oscillating, and linear motions. They are available in versions that require lubrication, as well as self-lubricating types with PTFE coating that operate without additional grease.
INA was founded in Herzogenaurach, Germany in 1946. The company started out manufacturing handcarts, but also invented the caged needle bearing, leading to a deeper focus on precision products and helping the company develop into bearing manufacturing. For decades, INA has been synonymous with precision quality, in-depth knowledge and manufacturing expertise. Today, INA products are used in industry, with new solutions being developed daily. In 2001 INA bought FAG and the name of the combined company is Schaeffler Group. The company invests heavily in development and has over 24,000 active patents and patent applications. There are over 2,300 new patent applications every year, making it the second most innovative company in Germany according to the German Patent Office.
