These types of slewing ball bearings are most commonly used. The steel ball in the bearing assembly is separated with the help of a single isolating block. In a single row contact ball slewing bearing the inner and outer rings are joined as a part. Moreover, the plugging holes are used in loading the steel balls in single-row contact ball slewing bearings. The rolling path is the main concern here, which comes to contact at four different points. The three different types of forces can be applied at the point of axial contact, radial, and tipping forces. For applications that require small to medium-sized loads this slewing bearing is considered the most common and preferred type.

There is no difference between the single and double-row slewing bearings except that there are two rows of steel balls. The size of these steel balls is quite the same. Here also the inner and outer rings are joined together. The steels balls are also loaded with the help of plugging holes. It is designed to accommodate the heavy-duty radial structural size.

These are also designed to cope with the needs of heavy loads. Primarily there are three rings, upper and lower rings. The loads are distributed in the horizontal direction. The axial force and tipping movement can be applied in both directions. To accommodate the radial force, vertically arranged rollers serve the purpose.

It has only one row of rolling steel balls. However, similar axes rollers are perpendicularly arranged. The inner and outer rings are not integrated instead they have separate raceways. In addition, the portion of raceways is undeviating. These are suitable for axial loads as half of the raceways are built to bear upward force while the other half exhibits a downward force.
