Needle Roller Bearings National Precision Bearing stocks a wide variety of domestic and imported needle roller bearings and is authorized to distribute for a number of quality manufacturers including Koyo/Torrington, INA, RBC, IKO and more.Metric shell type needle roller bearings have high length-to-diameter ratios. They are commonly used in farm and construction equipment, gasoline engines, gas pumps, and small appliances. Needle bearings have smaller rollers and the highest load capacity for a given radial space of all rolling bearings.Needle Roller Bearings Needle bearings feature a smaller cross-section, higher load-carrying capacity, greater rigidity, and lower inertia forces that facilitate size and weight reductions in machinery. They’re designed to withstand oscillation, perform under severe conditions, and interchange with sliding bearings.

Needle roller bearings needle roller and cage assemblies are self­-contained, ready-­to­-mount bearings. In applications where the shaft and housing bore can serve as raceways, the assemblies can be used to create bearing arrangements that require minimal radial space.
