For a more compact machine, these bearings have thinner inner and outer rings than high-load crossed-roller bearings. Route hydraulic lines, electrical wiring, and other components through the inside of the bearing. The rollers face in alternating directions to allow for rigid, accurate motion under any combination of radial, thrust, and moment (twisting) loads. Use in applications where highly accurate motion is necessary, such as machine tools and industrial robots.

Open bearings dissipate heat more efficiently than sealed bearings.
