Description
NSK MC-461 belongs to needle roller bearing, part of our Bearings range. Tell us how many you need by WhatsApp or email and we'll get back to you promptly with a quote for MC-461 and any equivalents.
When radial space is tight but loads are high, a needle roller bearing from the NSK M series is often the right choice. These bearings have a small diameter relative to their length, which lets them handle significant radial loads in a very compact envelope. MR Industrial Accessories LLC supplies this series to customers throughout the United States and Latin America, and quotes by part number through WhatsApp or email.
The part number tells you what you are looking at. The MC prefix identifies the NSK M series, and the number that follows indicates the size within that series. For instance, MC-461 is a specific size in this line. When you request a quote, have the shaft diameter, outside diameter and width ready so the correct reference can be confirmed.
These bearings appear in machine tools, pumps, compressors, electric motors, conveyors, power transmission equipment and agricultural machinery, among other industrial applications. Their ability to carry radial loads in confined spaces makes them suitable where a ball bearing would not provide the needed rigidity.
Selection comes down to the radial load, the rotational speed and the operating environment. Check that the shaft and housing have appropriate hardness and surface finish, and that alignment is correct so parasitic axial loads are avoided. Use the lubrication specified by the manufacturer, and choose sealing based on the level of contamination present. A typical mounting uses an interference fit on the shaft and a sliding fit in the housing.
Needle roller bearings in the NSK M series can be interchanged with equivalent products from other brands that share the same dimensional nomenclature. If you have a part number from another manufacturer or a bearing you cannot identify, send the data and the team will indicate the compatible alternative. Interchangeability depends on the main dimensions as well as the load and speed conditions, not only on the part number.
To request a quote for the NSK M series needle roller bearing you need, send the part number, for example MC-461, or the dimensions of your application via WhatsApp or email. The team replies promptly and can suggest equivalents or help you choose the right reference.

Frequently asked questions
- What does the MC prefix mean on NSK needle roller bearings?
- The MC prefix corresponds to the NSK M series. The number that follows indicates the bearing size. For example, MC-461 identifies a specific size within that series. To choose the correct part number, you need the shaft and housing dimensions.
- How can I tell if an NSK M series needle roller bearing fits my machine?
- Compare the main dimensions: shaft diameter, outside diameter and width. Also consider the radial load capacity and the rotational speed. If you send the original part number or the dimensions, the team will tell you the equivalent reference.
- What lubrication is recommended for NSK M series needle roller bearings?
- Lubrication depends on the application and working conditions. In general, grease or oil with a viscosity suitable for the operating speed and temperature is used. Follow the manufacturer's recommendations and maintain a constant lubricant film.
