What are axial fans?

Axial fans are a type of fan used within everyday applications, such as air conditioners and computers. They cause both air and gas (depending on the application) to flow directly through it in an axial direction. Allowing the air/gas flow to be axial and both entry and exit. You would find RS Pro axial fans used in everyday devices, such as fridges, engines and PCs.

Do these fans use ball bearings or sleeve bearings?

These axial fans use ball bearings. Ball bearings are usually the most common choice within axial fans. this is mainly due to their reputation of an excellent service life, ball bearing fans are known to run at full speed with no interruptions for many years. If your axial fan needs to be mounted in a position where the blades are facing in an awkward direction, ball bearing internals mean the fan can be mounted in any axial position.
