More Information
Summary:A cage is provided with guidance and retention elements for the cylindrical rolling elements. The cage includes a radially inner rim including a first flange, and a plurality of first retention tabs extend from the first flange that include first and second lateral surfaces. A radially outer rim includes a second flange, and a plurality of second retention tabs extend from the second flange that include third and fourth lateral surfaces. The first and second lateral surfaces of the first retention tabs and the third and fourth lateral surfaces of the second retention tabs face each of the pockets to define lower rolling element retention elements. Webs include first and second rolling element facing guide surfaces that face adjacent ones of the pockets. Upper rolling element retention elements of the webs are provided on an opposite side of a centerline from the lower rolling element retention elements.
