Flat Table Bearing / Thrust Bearing

Flat Table Bearing / Thrust Bearing

Flat Table Bearing / Thrust Bearing

(OP)
Hello All,

Im sure this isnt the correct sub-forum, however I am looking for a specific type of bearing, and I trust the collective knowledge of engineers more than google.
I have tow plates, one stationary at the bottom, and one at the top that is allowed to move freely. They are both aligned horizontally and must bear a weight of ~40kg. The OD of the bearing must be no more than 80mm accross.

Essentially I am looking to make a lazy susan, but for a TV.

If anyone could help me located one of these products that isnt intended for idustrial purposes i would be very greatful. If there is anyone out there with a background in bearings i would love to twist your ear for a while.

Thanks!

Awwww, man, and so close...

I was going to recommend you search for "slewing bearings", but now I must retract that statement. Sorry. Never mind. Carry on, soldier.

Take the wife and kids out for Chinese breakfast, Dim Sum. Rip off their "turn table" afterwards. But tip your waiter well.
