Detailed Product Description

The drawn cup of hardened sheet steel and the needle roller and cage assembly of these bearings form a non-separable unit. The space available for lubricant is large enough to enable long relubrication intervals.

Typically, drawn cup needle roller bearings have a single row of rollers. However, wide sizes incorporate two needle roller and cage assemblies immediately adjacent to each other with a lubrication hole in the outer ring On request, any single row drawn cup needle roller bearing for shaft diameters of 7 mm and above can be supplied with a lubrication hole in the outer ring.

Drawn cup needle roller bearings are mounted with an interference fit in the housing bore. Therefore, shoulders or retaining rings are not required to locate the bearing axially so the design of the housing bore is simple and can be produced economically.

To accommodate combined radial and axial loads, a drawn cup needle roller bearing can be combined with a needle roller thrust bearing with a centring spigot.
