With a high load carrying capacity at low speeds, needle roller bearings are ideal for the heaviest duty applications. Timken manufacture a vast range of needle roller and cage assemblies, as well as drawn cup needle roller bearings, to suit all of your application requirements.
Timken needle roller bearings are an essential and important component in robotics, material handling and refrigeration compressor applications.
These bearings are a multi-faceted bearing solution. An ideal bearing for applications requiring a bearing with a low cross section, low mass, relatively high carrying capacity and/or high stiffness. However the needle roller bearing is sensitive to misalignment.
The low cross section of the Timken needle roller bearing design allows for the downsizing of an application, or ‘power up’ of a products performance.
