A thrust bearing comprises a pair of bearing members and an intermediate seat member. The two bearing members are mountable to a rotating shaft and each includes a substantially spherical bearing surface. The seat member is held between the bearing members, but is free of said rotating shaft. This seat member has oppositely facing, substantially spherical bearing surfaces for mating with and bearing against the substantially spherical bearing surfaces of the two bearing members.
