The S99NH2-BN2416 is a mount bearing designed for use on hardened shafts ranging from 1/8 to 1 inch in diameter. It features a low-profile, lightweight caged design that utilizes caged needle bearings, which can achieve speeds up to three times that of uncaged designs. The bearing is constructed with a roller cup made from case-hardened steel and a needle bearing made from 52100 hardened chrome steel, ensuring high load capacity and durability. This bearing exhibits extremely low rolling friction and high lubrication capacity, making it suitable for high-speed applications. It is also characterized by low sensitivity to misalignment, which enhances its operational reliability. The shaft surface must have a minimum hardness of Rc 58, or an inner race should be used over a softer shaft when applicable. The product is available with standard lubrication options, and other lubricants can be ordered as needed.
A bearing is a device that reduces friction between moving components by preventing metal-to-metal contact while assisting components (shafts, axles, and wheels) to freely rotate around a fixed axis, cutting down on heat generation and the amount of energy that is consumed. By replacing sliding motion with low-friction rolling motion, the life of the rotating components is increased. A bearing also keeps the shaft in the proper position, providing support and alignment and transferring the axial or radial loads to the housing.
The types of bearings that we offer include rolling element bearings, which consist of both ball bearings and roller bearings.
Balls are utilized as the rolling element in ball bearings; a retainer holds the balls in place and allows them to freely rotate. The balls are kept inside channels cut in both the inner and outer races. Because there is no surface contact between the balls and races, precision ball bearings have a lower load capacity for their size than other bearings.
