Designation explained
What 51118 means
Standard bearing numbers encode the type, the dimension series and the bore. Anything after the base number — seals, clearance, cage — is a suffix.
| Part | Meaning |
|---|---|
5 | Thrust ball bearing, single direction |
11 | Dimension series 11 (thrust) |
18 | 18 → 90 mm bore (18 × 5) |
Variants
Common 51118 variants
Suffixes change the bearing without changing its boundary dimensions. The exact letters differ between manufacturers — always order by the full designation from the maker you choose.
| Suffix | Example | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
(no suffix) | 51118 | Standard single-direction design: shaft washer, housing washer, ball and cage assembly |
M / TN | 51118-M | Cage material: brass (M) or polyamide (TN) — varies by size and maker |
