1. Stamped outer ring needle roller bearings
The outer ring of stamped outer ring needle roller bearings (DC type) is precision formed from cold-rolled steel strip. They are suitable for applications where space is limited and the housing is not stiff enough to act as a raceway. There is no requirement for the axial position of DC needle roller bearings when they are pressed into the housing.
2. Stamped outer ring needle roller clutch
The stamped outer ring needle roller clutch is a type of overrunning clutch (one-way clutch). It is composed of a high-quality steel stamped outer ring, a plastic cage, a spring, and a needle roller, and transmits one-way torque.
3. Needle roller and cage assembly
The needle roller and cage assembly is a separate bearing element. Each needle is precisely guided and secured by a cage. It has the highest load-bearing capacity and high rigidity design in the smallest structure and space. The large distance between the two guide surfaces of the cage ensures precise guidance of the needle roller and cage assembly. Needle roller cage assemblies are suitable when the shaft and housing bore are used as raceways.
4. Thrust needle roller bearings and thrust washers
Thrust bearings vary in size from 5 mm to 240 mm (0.1969 – 9.4488 inches) and have a set of needle rollers held in place by a cage.
5. Solid ferrule needle roller bearings
Solid ring needle roller bearings have compact structure, small radial size and high load-bearing capacity. This applies to areas of limited radial overall size. It is also widely used for shafts or housings with oscillating motion. Needle roller bearings only bear radial loads, not axial loads. When the shaft has axial load, it can be used in combination with other bearings. But it does not limit the axial displacement of the shaft or housing. The limiting speed of needle roller bearings is lower. When the host is running at high speed, try to use needle roller bearings with cages. Like other types of needle roller bearings, when the radial dimensions are the same, needle roller bearings have large load-bearing capacity and high rigidity, but have large friction torque.
