SKF, AS 1024

Put a straight face on bearings with this universal washer from SKF. It's super-slim, with a thickness of just 1mm, so it slots in easily between components. This enables you to tweak the positioning of your bearings to get your alignment spot on. As it's made from hardened spring steel, the washer has high tensile strength, providing a robust surface for open-sided bearings to butt up against. As both sides are polished, it creates a smooth raceway for needle rollers to run against and ensures the contact is consistent, so machines work efficiently.

• Light weight of 3g minimises the load on axles
• Precise cylindrical shape for easy fitting on shafts
• Resistant to fatigue and wear, so it's low-maintenance
• Helps to extend the service life of bearings to boost efficiency

• Automotive industry
• Agricultural machinery
• Paper mills
• Packaging systems

Yes. With an outer diameter of 24mm and bore of 10mm, it's well-sized for holding and positioning small AXK thrust bearings.
