Timken® Precision Tapered Roller Bearings

Product catalog summary
Introduction
Timken® Precision Tapered Roller Bearings are designed for superior accuracy in industrial applications, particularly where high precision is required, such as in machining, printing presses, and rolling mills. These bearings offer tighter manufacturing specifications, reduced tolerances, and enhanced load-carrying capabilities compared to standard bearings.
Specifications and Features
Precision tapered roller bearings feature tighter manufacturing specifications for greater rotational accuracy, reduced tolerances for improved performance in high-speed and high-temperature applications, and straight race or roller profile designs for increased accuracy and rigidity. They also allow for precise control of operating torque, shaft rigidity, and temperature during installation.
Precision Classes
Timken provides four precision classes in both metric and inch systems, catering to various precision application requirements. These classes are identified as Class C, B, A, and AA in the metric system, and Class 3, 0, 00, and 000 in the inch system. Each class offers different levels of accuracy and control.
Special Bearings
Timken offers specialized bearings such as the HydraRib™ and SpringRib™ bearings, which maintain preload through hydraulic or spring pressure, respectively. The Crossed Roller Bearing-TXR provides high rotational accuracy and rigidity, while the TSMA and TSMR bearings ensure adequate lubrication at high speeds.
Applications
Precision bearings are crucial in machine tools, printing presses, and rolling mills. They help improve productivity, reduce costs, and ensure high-quality output by minimizing variations and enhancing accuracy.
Manufacturing and Quality Assurance
Timken's dedicated manufacturing facility in Ohio ensures world-class precision through controlled environments and advanced machinery. The company also offers bearing repair services and expedited delivery programs like Precision Express and Precision To Go.
Additional Services
Timken provides lubricants, integrated packages, and repair services to enhance machinery performance and reduce downtime. Their commitment to quality ensures that all products meet stringent performance standards.

preload is maintained by springs rather than hydraulic pressure. It is ideal for applications where load and speed conditions are relatively constant, such as a transfer line spindle. Three different spring pack pre-loads are available: light, medium and heavy. Crossed Roller Bearing-TXR Timken precision crossed roller bearings (TXR) are designed to offer the highest levels of rotational accuracy and rigidity, while conserving space and saving material costs. The bearing features two sets of races and rollers brought together at right angles, with alternate rollers facing in opposite directions....

Timken® Precision Tapered Roller Bearings-6

Precision bearings: performance & productivity load rating in a minimum space. For low- and medium-speed rolling mills, a four-row, straight bore assembly with cone face lubrication slots (TQOW) precision bearing is often used. TQOW assemblies have slots in the front faces of the cones to provide critical lubrication between the cone bore and roll neck. For high-speed applications, four-row, tapered bore assembly (TQITS) is the ideal choice. This type of bearing allows the operator to minimize roll body runout. The tapered bore on the TQITS bearing allows a tight fit on the roll neck, which further...

For example, Timken premium mill grease, a calcium sulfonate complex grease, is specifically formulated to provide superior protection in steel and aluminum mills where intense operating conditions exist. It is ideal for anti-friction bearings as well as roll necks, drive shafts, vertical edgers, liners and most other mill applications requiring grease. Timken Express Services The speed of business today requires all participants in the supply chain to deliver products cost effectively and efficiently. However, in some cases, emergencies arise where product must be expedited so that equipment...
