needle bearings

Needle bearings are a type of roller bearing with thin, elongated cylindrical rollers, resembling needles. These bearings have a small cross-section, which makes them suitable for applications with limited space but requiring high load-carrying capacity. Needle bearings are commonly used in automotive transmissions, gearboxes, and other machinery where compact design and heavy load support are necessary. Their low-profile design also minimizes friction and supports efficient performance in high-speed operations.
