Drawn Cup Needle Roller Bearings have a deep drawn, thin-walled outer ring. Drawn cup needle roller bearings are typically used in applications where the housing bore cannot be used as a raceway for a needle roller and cage assembly, but where a very compact and economical bearing arrangement is required. These bearings are mounted with a tight interference fit in the housing. That enables a simple and economic design of the housing bore, as shoulders or snap rings are not required to locate the bearing axially.

The drawn cup of hardened steel and the needle roller and cage assembly of these bearings form a non-separable unit.

TKW supplies a wide assortment of drawn cup needle roller bearings. This includes:

-- Bearings with open ends 

-- Bearings with a closed end 

-- Full complement bearings with open ends

TKW drawn cup needle roller bearings:

-- are  supplied without an inner ring

-- are generally designed with one needle roller and cage assembly -- except wide sizes, which incorporate two needle roller and cage assemblies immediately adjacent to each other, with a lubrication hole in the outer ring

· Drawn cup needle roller bearings with open ends

o are available open (without seals) or sealed on one or both sides

· Drawn cup needle roller bearings with a closed end

o are available open or sealed

o are suitable for bearing arrangements where they are situated at the end of a shaft

o accommodate small axial guidance forces, because of the profiled design of their closed end

· Full complement bearings with open ends

o are suitable for very heavy radial loads at moderate speeds

o are available with open ends and without seals only

Full complement drawn cup needle roller bearings are supplied with a special grease to secure the rollers during transport. However, TKW recommends relubricating after mounting.

Drawn Cup Needle Roller Bearings with Open Ends

Drawn cup needle roller bearings with open ends and with closed end are needle roller bearings with a very small radial section height. They comprise thin-walled, drawn cup outer rings and needle roller and cage assemblies which together form a complete unit. The outer rings adapt themselves to the dimensional and geometrical accuracy of the housing bore.

In contrast to bearings produced by machining methods, the dimensional and geometrical accuracy of drawn cup needle roller bearings with open ends and with closed end is not based on ISO492, but on DIN618. If the shaft cannot be produced as a raceway, the bearings can be combined with inner rings.

Drawn cup needle roller bearings are available either with both ends open or with one end closed.

In addition to the design with a cage, drawn cup needle roller bearings with open ends are also available with a full complement needle roller set. These series have the maximum number of needle rollers and therefore offer extremely high load carrying capacity within a very small design envelope. Their use at high speeds is restricted.

If axial locating elements such as shoulders and snap rings are not used, the housing bore can be produced easily and particularly economically. This also gives simpler mounting and dismounting of the bearings.

In order to support axial forces, the bearings can be combined with axial bearings.
