AX3.5816 NADELLA 8x16x3,5 thrust needle roller bearing

Main description

The AX3.5816 NADELLA thrust needle roller bearing with dimensions 8x16x3,5 mm is a precision compact bearing designed to support axial loads in applications where space is extremely limited and high stiffness is required.

This model belongs to the category of thrust needle roller bearings, known for their very low cross section combined with relatively high axial load capacity. Thanks to the use of needle rollers, the bearing provides a large contact surface, ensuring efficient load distribution even in compact assemblies.

The AX3.5816 NADELLA is widely used in precision mechanisms and compact systems where standard bearings cannot be applied due to dimensional constraints.

Construction and design

The AX3.5816 NADELLA is a thrust needle roller bearing consisting of a cage assembly with precisely guided needle rollers.

Its ultra thin design allows installation in tight spaces while maintaining the ability to carry axial loads. The cage ensures proper spacing and guidance of rollers, reducing friction and improving operational stability.

For proper operation, the bearing requires hardened and ground raceways or matching washers to ensure durability and performance.
