NSK has developed a new series of high-performance spherical roller bearings, the HPS Series, to meet a wide spectrum of needs for a variety of industries. the HPS Series offers twice the running life of conventional bearings of the same size and a maximum limited running speed that has been improved by up to 20 per cent.

Compared to other types of bearings, spherical rollers have a high load capacity and self-aligning features that allows for some misalignment of the axis of rotation.

The unitised design of the bearings enables easy handling and installation, making them popular in industries requiring durability and smooth running performance.
