These steel needles, with round or flat tips, have a diameter less than or equal to 5 mm, and their length must be at least 3 times greater than their diameter.<br/><br/>The bearing supports very heavy loads thanks to the contact surface developed by the needles which are mounted in a steel or moulded polyamide cage.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">It enables extremely compact assemblies and is the first choice bearing when looking for a good compromise between performance, size and weight.<br/>A needle roller bearing is thus able to withstand 2 to 8 times more load than ball bearings or <a href="https://www.vistabearing.net/products/Cylindrical-Roller-Bearing/967.html" target="_blank" style="color: rgb(0, 112, 192); text-decoration: underline;"><strong><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; color: rgb(0, 112, 192);">cylindrical roller bearings</span></strong></a> of the same shaft diameter, all this in a small space.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"> </span></p><p style="box-sizing: inherit; font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; margin: 0px 0px 0.5rem; padding: 0px; color: rgb(30, 30, 30); text-rendering: optimizelegibility; line-height: 1.4; font-size: 1.065rem; white-space: normal; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">For which use?</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">Depending on the sector of activity and the application, needle roller and cage assembly can be integrated between rings that stiffen the assembly and ensure the connection between the various mechanical parts.<br/>Needle roller bearings are therefore available in many forms (cages, bushings, bearings with solid rings, combined bearings, needle thrust bearings, cam followers, etc.) to meet all the technical constraints of the industrial markets.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><br/></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">These bearings that combine robustness, precision, and endurance concern all industrial markets and are very much present especially in:</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">Automobiles,</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">Two-wheelers,</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">Portable tools (drills, chainsaws,…),</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">Construction machinery,</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">Pumps and motors.</span></p><p><br/></p>
