Timken® Spherical Plain Bearing Nomen One-, two- or three-digit “series” number. For inch series, the number indicates the nominal bore size (e.g., 10 is 1.00 in.) or an approximate bore size (e.g., 17 is 1.75 in.). One-, two- or three-digit number. For inch series, the number indicates the exact bore size in 1/16th of an inch (e.g., 12 refers to 12/16 in., which is a 3/4-in. bore). For metric series, the number indicates the exact bore size (e.g., 40 is 40mm). For metric series, the number indicates the exact outside diameter size (e.g., 62 is 62mm). SF spherical plain type (radial inch);...

SF...TT design SF and FS TYPES – radial spherical plain bearings Timken SF and FS spherical plain bearings are designed primarily to carry radial loads and handle moderate misalignment. The outer ring is usually fractured axially in one place, parallel to its axis, to permit assembly of the bearing rings. This design can also be supplied with doublefractured outer rings (designation SBB) for easier assembly in an application. The SF type is designed to inch dimensions, while the FS type is a metric-designed series. Timken also manufactures sealed versions of these bearings. TYPES SF…TT,...
