S99NH2-BN1610 is a caged needle roller bearing designed for use on hardened shafts with a bore diameter of 0.5000 inches and an outer diameter of 0.6880 inches, with a width of 0.375 inches. It has a dynamic load rating of 1045 lbf and a static load rating of 1214 lbf, and is rated for a maximum speed of 20,000 rpm when lubricated with oil. The bearing features a case-hardened steel roller cup, 52100 hardened chrome steel needles, and a low carbon steel cage. A shaft surface hardness of Rc 58 minimum is required, or an inner race must be used over a softer shaft. This model is part of a series offering high load capacity and low rolling friction with low sensitivity to misalignment.
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.
