A linear needle roller bearing has a linear needle bearing block having two generally rectangular ends defining an outer peripheral bearing surface therebetween. The outer peripheral bearing surface extends perpendicular to the ends of the bearing block and forms a plurality of linear bearing surfaces. A plurality of needle rollers are disposed on the outer peripheral bearing surfaces and a retaining member is fixed to each end of the block. The needle rollers are standard needle rollers having the shape of right cylinders. Each retaining member has a lip which extends over one end of each of the plurality of needle rollers, thereby retaining the needle rollers on the block.
