A ball bearing. A bearing is a machine element that constrains relative motion to only the desired motion and reduces friction between moving parts.The design of the bearing may, for example, provide for free linear movement of the moving part or for free rotation around a fixed axis; or, it may prevent a motion by controlling the vectors of normal forces that bear on the moving parts.
Bearing(s) may refer to: Bearing (angle), a term for direction; Bearing (mechanical), a component that separates moving parts and takes a load; Bridge bearing, a component separating a bridge pier and deck; Bearing BTS Station in Bangkok; Bearings, by Ronnie Montrose in 2000

A sealed deep groove ball bearing. In mechanical engineering, a rolling-element bearing, also known as a rolling bearing, [1] is a bearing which carries a load by placing rolling elements (such as balls, cylinders, or cones) between two concentric, grooved rings called races.

Flat thrust bearings, the most common spiral groove bearings, are so named because one consists of a flat surface that opposes the grooved surface. Variations in this type of bearing come from the nature of the spiral surface and the type of fluid flow. The following is a list of the different types of flat thrust bearings: With transverse flow
Silicon nitride bearing balls, in diameters ranging from 1 to 20mm. Bearing balls are special highly spherical and smooth balls, most commonly used in ball bearings, but also used as components in things like freewheel mechanisms. The balls themselves are commonly referred to as ball bearings. [1] This is an example of a synecdoche.
Gear bearing cutaway view. A gear bearing is a type of rolling-element bearing similar to epicyclic gearing.Gear bearings consist of a number of smaller 'satellite' gears which revolve around the center of the bearing along a track on the outsides of the internal and satellite gears, and on the inside of the external gear.
