The weight of the front part of the locomotive frame was to be supported on an arc shaped radial bearing.

In a deep-groove radial bearing, the race dimensions are close to the dimensions of the balls that run in it.

Tilting pad bearings are used as radial bearings for supporting and locating shafts in compressors.

The thrust box was built of a box-like cast iron housing with a radial bearing at each end and a number of collars formed on the shaft between them.

The gliding yaw bearing is a combined axial and radial bearing, which serves as a rotatable connection of the wind turbine nacelle and the tower.

Other parts include the radial bearings (bushings) distributed along the length of the shaft providing radial support to the pump shaft turning at high rotational speeds.

This bearing uses thin sleeve technology to increase the load bearing area of the radial bearing, allowing more force to be carried in the same space as compared to older designs.

Adjacent to the outbound end of the sleeve is the Thrust Bearing, which is typically a double acting roller (or ball bearing in some applications depending on the size of the radial bearing).

In a slot-fill radial bearing, also referred to as a full complement design, the inner and outer races are notched on one face so that when the notches are aligned, balls can be slipped in the resulting slot to assemble the bearing.
