The inner and outer race raceways of angular contact ball bearings are relatively offset from each other in the direction of the bearing axis. This means that such bearings are designed to carry combined loads, namely radial load plus axial load.

The axial bearing capacity of angular contact ball bearing increases with the increase of contact angle. On the radial plane, the included angle between the connecting line between the steel ball and the contact point of the raceway (i.e. the direction of the combined load from one raceway to the other) and the vertical line of the bearing axis.

Angular contact ball bearings can bear both radial and axial loads, while the axial load can only act in one direction. According to different types, this bearing can operate at high speed or even extremely high speed. Compared with the deep groove ball bearing, it can bear more axial force in one direction.
