Subject: [TowerTalk] Bearings

I need an education on bearings.  The question is the axial or thrust rating of 
guesstimate thereof on bearings that do not show that spec.  As example the 
bearing I believe used on a RTS rotating tower is a ZF 5215S made by Rexnard I 
think.  The radial load is specified at greater than 50,000 pounds. Axial load 
is not specified.  Is there anyway to equate radial load to axial load other 
than to look at a bearing and say "looks like it would handle a lot?"
