Specifications

Timken offers a broad size range of bearings from those so small a microscope is needed for inspection to those large enough to stand inside. They weigh from half an ounce to nine tons. Timken bearings and components are completely interchangeable and consistent in quality regardless of where in the world they are manufactured or sold.

Timken spindle bearings are the standard that all other bearings are measured. Timken manufactures nearly 26, 000 bearing combinations with sizes ranging from a 0.3125-inch (8 mm) bore to an 87.5-inch (2222.5 mm) outside diameter. We offer the most extensive line of tapered roller bearings available anywhere in the world.

Tapered roller bearings consist of four interdependent components: The cone, or inner ring; The cup, or outer ring; The tapered rollers, or rolling elements; And the cage, or roller retainer. The taper angles allow the bearing to handle a combination of radial and thrust loads. The steeper the cup angle, the greater the ability of the bearing to handle thrust loads.
