SKF NK Needle Roller Bearing, 15mm Inside Diameter, 23mm Outside Diameter - NK 15/16
This needle roller bearing offers a compact and efficient solution for high-speed, high-load applications in limited radial spaces. With a 15mm inside diameter, 23mm outside diameter, and a 16mm race width, this single-row, open-end bearing features carbon chromium steel rollers and a parallel bore, ensuring reliability and durability under dynamic operating conditions.
Features & Benefits
• High-speed capability with a limiting speed of 26,000 rpm ensures versatility in fast-rotating systems
• Compact design supports significant radial loads in space-constrained environments
• Carbon chromium steel rollers provide high resistance to wear and fatigue
• Sheet steel cage ensures efficient roller guidance and minimal friction
• Static load rating of 14 kN and dynamic load rating of 11 kN for reliable operation
Applications
• Used in gearboxes and transmissions requiring compact, high-performance bearings
• Ideal for small machinery in textile, printing, and packaging industries
• Suitable for power tools and automotive components with rapid rotation
• Applied in agricultural and construction equipment with limited space for bearings
• Effective in robotics and automation systems needing precise motion control
Why is this bearing suitable for high-speed applications?
Its low friction design, combined with a reference speed of 24,000 rpm and a limiting speed of 26,000 rpm, makes it ideal for high-speed machinery where efficiency and durability are essential.
What benefits does the open-end design provide?
The open-end configuration facilitates easy lubrication access and heat dissipation, which can extend the bearings service life in demanding conditions.
Can this bearing handle fluctuating loads effectively?
Yes, with a fatigue limit load of 1.66 kN and strong roller material, its designed to perform reliably under varying load conditions typical in dynamic equipment.
