Motorcycle Needle roller bearings

Motorcycle Needle roller bearings 

Needle roller bearings are roller bearings with cylindrical rollers, which are thin and long in relation to their diameter. In spite of their low cross section, the bearings have a high load carrying capacity and are thus eminently suitable for bearing arrangements where radial space is limited. There are many different types of needle roller bearings, including drawn cup needle roller bearings with open ends and with closed ends, and needle roller bearings with and without inner rings.

Motorcycle Needle roller bearings 


Needle roller  bearings  have a high load carrying capacity in addition to their low cross-section and stiffness. They are especially suitable for bearing arrangements where radial space is limited. Because needle roller bearings only carry pure radial load and can not limit the axial displacement of shaft relative to the housing. It is important to ensure that inner ring axis and outer ring axis must be aligned during mounting the bearings.


Applications include: automotive & truck transmissions (automatic and manual), overhead valve & overhead cam engines, agricultural & construction equipment, engines & valve trains, two-cycle engines, steering & braking systems, axle support, outboard engines, power tools, copiers & fax machines, appliances, exercise equipment, two-speed gearboxes, pumps, and compressors.
