Product Details
The Bearings Limited HK1516 needle bearing is a drawn cup, caged, metric needle roller bearing featuring a bore of 15.011 mm. Needle roller bearings are a specialized type of roller bearing categorized as either radial or thrust based on the direction of the load they carry. These bearings include those with rollers that may exceed the standard needle roller dimensions as defined by ISO. The HK1516 model encompasses drawn cup, solid radial bearings, and thrust needle bearings, available in two configurations: caged and full complement. The outer rings of drawn cup bearings are constructed from high-quality alloy steel sheets and undergo surface hardening after precise pressing, resulting in a robust structure. The cage of the needle bearing effectively guides the rollers at their pitch diameter, while its surface is hardened to minimize frictional torque and enhance rigidity and wear resistance.
