Designation explained
What 51120 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) |
20 | 20 → 100 mm bore (20 × 5) |
Variants
Common 51120 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) | 51120 | Standard single-direction design: shaft washer, housing washer, ball and cage assembly |
M / TN | 51120-M | Cage material: brass (M) or polyamide (TN) — varies by size and maker |
