Needle roller and cage assemblies are separate components and are ready-to-fit bearings without inner and outer rings. In applications where the shaft and housing bores are used as raceways, these assemblies can be used in bearing configurations where minimum radial clearance is required. Since the clearance of the bearing configuration is only affected by the type of roller and the finishing surfaces of the shaft and housing, very precise bearing configurations can be realised.

• High radial load carrying capacity
• High rigidity
• High precision
• Smallest cross-section among rolling bearings
• Can withstand bi-directional axial displacement
