When radial space is tight, an NTN K series needle cage keeps the needles aligned and contained, letting you work with a low-profile bearing arrangement that still carries significant radial load. This cage type is common in gearboxes, electric motors, pumps, and machine tool spindles where precision and compactness matter. MR Industrial Accessories LLC supplies the NTN K series to maintenance and purchasing teams across the United States and Latin America.
Reading a K series part number tells you the main dimensions. Take 8E-K10×14×16.8X1: the bore is 10 mm, the outside diameter is 14 mm, and the width is 16.8 mm. The 8E prefix and the X1 suffix mark construction or material details of that variant. Another example, 8E-K38×43×17, gives a 38 mm bore, a 43 mm outside diameter, and a 17 mm width. Use these three figures to match the cage to your shaft and housing.
Selection starts with the shaft and housing sizes, then the internal clearance you need and the lubrication method. Check alignment and cleanliness before mounting; a cage that is not properly guided or needles that do not turn freely will wear early. Grease or oil applied correctly reduces friction and helps the component last.
K series cages from NTN can be replaced by equivalents from other makers that use the same dimensional code, including SKF, FAG, and NSK, as long as the dimensions and cage style agree. Tolerances and materials can differ slightly, so confirm those details. If you are unsure, send us the original part number and we will point you to a compatible option.
Typical fields of use include automotive components, machine tools, transmission equipment, pumps, and compressors. In repair work, these cages often appear in gearboxes, electric motors, and roller systems. Their design supports high loads in a small radial envelope, which makes them a practical choice when a standard bearing will not fit.

Frequently asked questions
- What does the code 8E-K10×14×16.8X1 indicate?
- It gives a bore of 10 mm, an outside diameter of 14 mm, and a width of 16.8 mm. The 8E prefix and X1 suffix refer to construction features of that series variant. These numbers let you identify the replacement part.
- How do I pick the right needle cage for my equipment?
- Know the shaft and housing dimensions, the space available, and the load and speed conditions. With that information we can select the K series cage that fits. If you have the original part number, send it and we will provide the equivalent.
- Can NTN K series cages interchange with other brands?
- Yes, when dimensions and cage type match. Brands like SKF, FAG, or NSK often use similar nomenclature. Check tolerances and material to be sure of correct operation. We can advise you if you share the original part number.
