🔍 Key Concepts

• Types of bearing loads: radial vs axial (thrust) • How propeller shaft forces are transmitted along the shaft to the engine or thrust block • Names commonly used for bearings that support side loads vs end loads on a shaft

💭 Think About

• Think about what direction the force acts when a propeller is pushing a vessel ahead—along the shaft or sideways to it? • Which bearing type is specifically meant to resist force along the shaft’s centerline, not across it? • Look at each choice and recall whether it mainly supports the shaft’s weight, alignment, or the pushing/pulling force from the propeller.

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which term is associated with axial load (load along the shaft) rather than side/rotational support • Eliminate any answer that describes a bearing which mainly supports radial or sideways loads, or just holds the shaft in position • Confirm that the bearing you select is typically used to carry the propeller’s pushing or pulling force into the hull or engine foundation
