Thrust Needle Roller Bearings

Thrust Needle Roller Bearings consist of a precisely made cage and rollers. Thrust Needle Roller Bearings have high rigidity and high load capacities and can be used in small spaces.

Thrust Needle Roller Bearings incorporate needle rollers, while Thrust Roller Bearings incorporate cylindrical rollers. Various types of raceway rings are available, and suitable bearings can be selected according to the operating conditions.

When the needle roller bearing mounting surfaces of a machine are heat-treated and finished by grinding as raceways, Thrust Bearings can be used without raceway rings allowing the machine to be made more compact.

Thrust needle roller bearings are most suited to applications where high accuracy is required at high speeds and under fluctuating heavy loads, such as driving mechanisms for automobiles, machine tools, and high-pressure pumps.
