OverviewDesigned to withstand high radial loads through linear contact between rolling elements and raceways, cylindrical roller bearings (CRB) can also accommodate axial loads when shoulders are present on inner and/or outer rings. NTN & SNR provide standard and customised ranges covering general and special industrial applications, including high‑performance ULTAGE™ variants.
Applications- Hydraulic motors and pump equipment
- Wind turbine gearboxes
- Gearboxes for robotics
- Railway and rolling stock
- Agricultural machinery
- Textile machines
- Construction and heavy equipment
NTN range highlights- Series with cages: N, NU, NJ, NUP (single‑row)
- Double‑row series with and without cages: NNU, NN; SL01, SL02, SL04 (without cage)
- ULTAGE™ high‑performance series for improved bearing efficiency
- Customised solutions on request
SNR range highlights- Compact, competitive range covering key dimensions in NU, NUP and NJ
