Cylindrical roller bearings: High radial load capacity, suitable for high speeds, used in high-speed train axle boxes, traction motors, and gearboxes.
Tapered roller bearings: Capable of both radial and axial heavy loads, high rigidity, used in freight cars, locomotives, and high-speed train axle boxes.
Deep groove ball bearings: Simple structure, high speed, maintenance-free, used in traction motors and gearboxes.
Spherical roller bearing: Self-aligning, high load capacity, impact resistant, used in locomotive axle boxes and traction motor bearings.
Angular contact ball bearings: High precision, low friction, suitable for high-speed axial loads, used in high-performance traction motors and engines.
