Product Overview: The HK 1312 Drawn Cup Needle Roller Bearing
The HK 1312 is a compact and efficient drawn cup needle roller bearing with a 13mm bore diameter, 19mm outer diameter, and 12mm width. As a key component in our Needle Roller Bearings category, it is specifically designed for applications where radial space is limited. Its unique construction features a thin-walled, drawn outer cup that serves as the raceway for the needle rollers, providing a high load-carrying capacity within a very small cross-section. This makes the HK 1312 an excellent choice for creating compact, lightweight, and economical bearing arrangements.
This bearing is part of the Drawn Cup Bearings family and is installed with a tight press fit into the housing, eliminating the need for shoulders or snap rings. Its design is ideal for supporting high radial loads and ensuring smooth, reliable operation in a wide array of industrial and automotive machinery. For a comprehensive solution, explore our full range of needle roller bearings to meet your specific application requirements.
