Needle Bearing, 1-1/4"X1-5/8"X1-1/4"

Needle Bearing, 1-1/4"X1-5/8"X1-1/4"

The BH-2020 Needle Bearing is a heavy-series needle roller and cage assembly designed to deliver high load capacity in a compact space. With no inner or outer ring, it relies on the mating shaft and housing to act as the raceways—helping keep the cross section low while maximizing load-carrying capability in tight assemblies. This bearing is an unsealed (open) design, making it a good fit for applications where lubrication is handled by the equipment (and where you’d rather not cram a bulkier bearing into a space that refuses to grow).
