NSK Bearings Australia Pty Ltd was first formed in Melbourne in March 1965, as a joint venture between Nippon Seiki KK, and Nichimen Co Australia Pty Ltd. In 1969, Nippon Seiki KK purchased all Nichimen shares. The company became known as NSK Australia Pty Ltd on 1st June, 1980, and continued to grow.
In 1990 a NSK resident rep was set up in New Zealand. At that same time two major rolling bearing manufacturers joined forces when NSK Japan purchased RHP UK. NSK and RHP operations in Australia and New Zealand were merged.
NSK was officially formed in New Zealand in 1992 as part of the NSK-RHP merger.
