The NTN NK series needle roller bearing is a single-row radial bearing without an inner ring, with a steel cage and guided needles. It is used when radial space is limited and high load capacity is required. In Argentina it is found in machine tools, pumps, compressors and transmission equipment. MR Accesorios Industriales quotes the exact part number or size you need.
The NK series designation is read by its structure: the letters NK identify a needle roller bearing without an inner ring, and the numbers that follow indicate bore diameter and width dimensions. The example 8E-NK26/16RCT combines the prefix 8E, which distinguishes a design variant, with NK26/16, which defines the size, and the suffix RCT, which indicates special sealing. To correctly interpret each part number, it is key to respect the order and separators.
This type of bearing is used in industries such as metalworking, food and petrochemical, where rotating equipment demands compact solutions. In Argentina it is common in machine tool spindles, centrifugal pumps, screw compressors and gearboxes. Its design without an inner ring allows it to be mounted directly on the shaft, provided the raceway has the appropriate hardness and roughness.
To select the correct bearing, take into account the radial load, speed and available space. The RCT seal protects against contaminants and retains the lubricant, ideal for dusty or humid environments. During assembly, verify the alignment of the shaft and the housing, and make sure the shaft raceway meets the required hardness. Lubrication can be grease or oil, depending on the application and service conditions.
If you need to replace a bearing from another brand, the NTN NK series is usually interchangeable with equivalent designations from other manufacturers that follow the same nomenclature. It is always advisable to verify the critical dimensions and the type of sealing before replacing. MR Accesorios Industriales advises you to find the right equivalent without risks.
