Product Overview: The NA 4901 Machined Ring Needle Roller Bearing
The NA 4901 is a high-precision needle roller bearing featuring a machined outer ring and an inner ring, making it a robust solution for applications with high radial loads and limited space. With principal dimensions of 12x24x13mm (Bore x Outer Diameter x Thickness), this bearing is a key component in our NA Series of Machined Ring Bearings. Its design incorporates a cage to guide the rollers, enabling high-speed operation while maintaining exceptional rigidity. The inclusion of an inner ring allows for its use on shafts that have not been hardened, providing greater versatility.
As a leading supplier of industrial components, we ensure our NA 4901 bearings meet stringent quality standards. This bearing is engineered for superior performance in demanding environments, offering a compact and reliable solution for various mechanical and automotive applications.
