NSK cage & Needle roller assemblies consist of a complement of needle rollers held in place by a cage. Their unitized design makes for easy handling and installation. With no inner or outer ring, the low cross-section provides maximum load-carrying capability within the smallest envelope.
Properly lubricated, they can operate at high speeds thanks to the unique cage, which guides the rollers precisely. The controlled contour rollers in cage & Needle roller assemblies have an optimum profile which reduces end stresses, allows operation under moderate misalignment and prolongs bearing life.
