ABSTRACT:
A thrust bearing or thrust bearings are adapted to be used in pressurized lubricating systems to maintain lubricant under pressure in these systems. The pressure assures improved lubrication and particularly with a grease lubricant improves lubrication and system life, and maintains the system free of voids and contaminants. Seals within the system maintain pressure and prevent lubricant outflow while functioning with static and/or moving parts. Round or square cross-sectioned O-rings preferably act as seals. A special O-ring having separable end segments may be used in the systems with the thrust bearings to seal against pressure and lubricant outflow.
