NK 17/16 MGK 17x25x16 Needle Roller Bearing

Compact Bearing for High Radial Loads and Limited Installation Space

The NK 17/16 MGK needle roller bearing is a precision-engineered bearing designed for applications requiring high radial load capacity within a compact installation envelope. Its machined outer ring and needle roller assembly provide excellent load distribution, high rigidity and reliable operation in demanding industrial environments.

Without an inner ring, the bearing operates directly on a hardened and ground shaft, allowing designers to minimize space requirements while maintaining superior performance. This makes NK 17/16 a preferred solution for transmissions, pumps, industrial machinery and OEM mechanical assemblies.

Application in Industrial Systems

The NK 17/16 MGK needle roller bearing is commonly used in:

• Industrial gearboxes
• Mechanical transmissions
• Hydraulic pumps
• Compressors
• Agricultural machinery
• Construction equipment
• Machine tools
• Packaging machinery
