About NSK

NSK Ltd. is a Japanese manufacturer founded in 1916 and headquartered in Shinagawa, Tokyo, and is a global leader in bearings, automotive components and precision machinery. In this directory’s drivetrain and linear-motion category, its precision machine components are the core offer: ball screws, NSK Linear Guides, Monocarrier linear actuators, XY tables and the Megatorque Motor — a direct-drive motor line used for high-accuracy rotary positioning in semiconductor and factory-automation equipment. These sit alongside the bearing business for which NSK is best known, from deep-groove and spherical roller bearings to super-precision bearings for machine-tool spindles and SPACEA bearings for special environments such as vacuum and clean rooms.

NSK reported 26,278 employees and annual net sales of ¥911.6 billion for the year ended March 31, 2026, and is listed on the Prime Market of the Tokyo Stock Exchange. Its stated industry applications span machine tools, steel and metals, semiconductors, medical devices, railways, wind turbines, injection moulding and automotive production. For robotics and automation builders, NSK components form the mechanical backbone of precision axes — the ball screw, guide, bearing and direct-drive motor set behind a robot joint or a positioning stage. For directory partners, NSK is an enterprise-scale component supplier accessed through its regional headquarters and distributor network.

GlobleMatch Trust Signals

A directory that doesn’t sell stars. Trust Signals are built only from verifiable facts — never from anonymous ratings, and never for sale. There is no single hidden score.

Public information coverage	9 of 9 fields on the standard profile could be filled from public sources. This counts how much public information exists about the company — not how good the company is. The nine fields are listed in the methodology. Claiming the profile lets the company complete the remaining fields itself.
Last verified	9 November 2026 — facts on this profile were checked against the sources listed below. Profiles are re-checked on a published 90-day cycle; this date is never quietly refreshed.

Claim this profile to unlock response record, directory tenure and peer endorsements. The full methodology — what each signal measures and how it is calculated — is published in the Trust Signals methodology, including a change log.
