The Tyson Bearing Company was founded in 1929 by Frank Tyson for the purpose of manufacturing a unique designcageless tapered roller bearing. A factory was built in Massillon, Ohio and production began in 1930. In 1939 the com- pany was placed on the Navy approved materials list and became a member of the AFBMA (now the ABMA).During the war years the company produced a variety of war munitions, as well as bearings. Immediately following thewar, production was expanded to include traditional cage type tapered roller bearings.In 1955, the company was acquired by SKF Industries Inc., but continued...

Installation and Maintenance > Tapered roller bearings should always be installed and maintained according to the original equipment manufacturer'srecommendations. Failure to lubricate, install, adjust, and maintain these bearings properly can result in shortened bearing life, equipment failure and personal injury.Tyson tapered roller bearings come from the factory with a light coat of preservative designed to keep the bearings fromrusting. It does not provide adequate operating lubrication. The bearings must either be thoroughly greased or immersedin the oil used in oil bath lubrication before...

The primary application for these bearings is in the heavy truck and trailer industry. Applications include steer axles fortrucks, tractors, and construction equipment, and landing gear for class 8 trailers. Due to the tapered roller design, these bear- ings offer significant thrust load capacity and can be used in a variety of other applications where that is a requirement. Both the races and rollers of the thrust bearings are case hardened which offers advantages in applications where shock loads and/or misalignment are present. Tyson utilizes a full complement of rollers where possible, which...
