Needle Bearing, 1"X1-1/4"X1/2"

The B168 Needle Bearing is a compact needle roller and cage assembly engineered for high load capacity in minimal space. Designed without inner or outer rings, it allows the mating shaft and housing to serve as raceways—maximizing load-carrying performance while maintaining a low cross section. Ideal for applications where strength is essential but space is limited.
