S99RH2MBNR1520 is a hardened inner race for needle roller bearings, designed for use on soft shafts with a 15 mm bore and 20 mm outer diameter, compatible with S99NH2MBN2012 bearings. It is made from alloy steel hardened to HRC 58 minimum, with outer diameter ground to 0.40 µm AA surface roughness. Recommended shaft fit tolerance is k6. All corners are chamfered for ease of assembly, and wider variants are available to accommodate shaft translation.
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.
