NSK supply needle roller bearings through a joint venture of over forty years between NSK Ltd. and The Torrington Company (NSK-TORRINGTON).
Needle roller bearings contain slender rollers with a length of 3 to 10 times their diameter. The ratio of the bearing outside diameter to the inscribed circle diameter is small and, as a result, they have a high radial load capacity.
NSK-TORRINGTON can supply a full range of needle roller bearings including drawn-cup radial bearings with a pressed steel outer ring or solid radial bearings with a machined outer ring. The range also includes cam followers, roller followers, needle bearings for airframes and thrust needle bearings.
To prevent the ingress of contamination, NSK-TORRINGTON needle roller bearings can also be supplied with contact seals, non-contact labyrinth seals or flingers.
