Product Overview: The HK 0912 Drawn Cup Needle Roller Bearing
The HK 0912 is a compact and efficient needle roller bearing, featuring key dimensions of a 9mm bore diameter, 13mm outer diameter, and 12mm width. As part of our Drawn Cup Bearings collection, this component is designed with a thin-walled, drawn steel outer cup that forms a rigid and precise housing for the needle roller and cage assembly. This design allows it to handle high radial loads within a minimal space, making it an excellent choice for applications where the housing bore cannot be used as a raceway.
The HK 0912 is installed with a simple press fit into the housing, eliminating the need for complex mounting solutions like shoulders or snap rings. Its open-end construction is suitable for applications where the shaft extends through the housing bore. As a leading supplier of industrial components, we provide high-quality Needle Roller Bearings that deliver reliability and performance in a wide range of machinery and equipment.
Key Features of the HK 0912 Bearing
- Space-Saving Design: Features a very low cross-sectional height, ideal for compact and lightweight mechanical assemblies.
- High Radial Load Capacity: The full complement of needle rollers provides exceptional load-carrying capability relative to its small size.
- Durable Outer Cup: The drawn steel outer ring is hardened to ensure high strength and durability under load.
- Press-Fit Installation: Designed for a tight interference fit in the housing, simplifying assembly and reducing manufacturing costs.
- Low-Friction Operation: Engineered to minimize rotational friction, enhancing efficiency and reducing heat generation.
