Cage Needle Bearing 20 x 24 x 17

The Cage Needle Bearing 20 x 24 x 17 (SG-1057) from BERT TRANSMISSIONS is a precision transmission component engineered for high-performance manual transmissions. This needle bearing is designed to support the reverse shaft with a 0.802-inch inner diameter and 0.932-inch outer diameter, delivering the tight tolerances and consistent load distribution required in competition and street-strip transmission applications.

Needle bearings excel where space is limited and radial load capacity must be maximized relative to the bearing's footprint. The cage design reduces friction and maintains proper needle spacing under the extreme stress of gear engagement cycles. With dimensions of 3 x 0.8 x 5.5 inches and a featherweight 0.03 lbs, this bearing integrates seamlessly into transmission assemblies without adding bulk. Proper installation and adequate lubrication are critical to achieving the extended service life and smooth shaft rotation this component is designed for.

This bearing is specified for transmission rebuilds, performance upgrades, and OEM replacement on BERT Transmissions units. Builders and transmission specialists rely on BERT components to maintain the precision and reliability of manual transmission systems, whether for street use, drag racing, or off-road applications. The SG-1057 addresses the reverse shaft bearing position, a critical support point that experiences significant wear during extended driving or aggressive shifting.

When rebuilding or servicing a transmission, using OEM-equivalent or manufacturer-specified bearings ensures proper clearance, load rating, and durability. The Cage Needle Bearing 20 x 24 x 17 is sold as a single unit, allowing buyers to replace only the components that require service while maintaining the original engineering specifications of the transmission system.
