ABSTRACT:
The motor has a thrust cap fitted to its end cap by snap fit fingers. The thrust cap closes a hole in the bearing retainer of the end cap and provides a thrust bearing surface against which the end of the shaft contacts to limit axial movement or end play of the shaft. The thrust bearing surface is part of a metallic spring fixed to a body of the thrust cap.
