Product catalog summary
Overview
Timken Industrial Seals offers a range of sealing products designed for the challenging environments of primary metals industries, such as smelting and steel making. These products aim to enhance equipment performance, extend bearing life, and reduce maintenance costs and downtime.
Oil Seals
Timken provides three varieties of oil seals, each color-coded for easy identification: Fluoroelastomer (Green), Hydrogenated Nitrile Butadiene Rubber (Blue), and Nitrile (Black). These seals offer excellent wear resistance, a wide temperature range, and promote longer seal and bearing life.
Metallic Bearing Isolators
These isolators are designed to extend equipment life by blocking contaminants and reducing frictional drag on the shaft. They meet various industry standards, including NEMA MG 1-2003 and IEEE 841-2001.
Software Package - Prophet
Prophet is a custom-engineered software tool that helps customers predict cost savings by analyzing data such as annual power consumption and maintenance costs.
Seal Materials and Temperature Ranges
Timken seals are made from various materials, each suitable for different temperature ranges:
  • Timken N Black: -40°F to 200°F
  • Timken ES Blue: -40°F to 300°F
  • Timken V Green: -22°F to 400°F
  • Silicone: -75°F to 350°F
  • PTFE: -120°F to 400°F
  • THERMO-CERAM™: up to 1600°F
Applications
The document outlines various models suitable for different stages of the aluminum and steel processes, such as holding furnaces, hot mills, and cold mills. Specific models are recommended for each application to ensure optimal performance.
General Engineering Data
The document provides detailed tables on shaft data, operating pressure limits, bore tolerances, and housing bore dimensions, offering guidance on installation and maintenance to ensure optimal seal performance.
Conclusion
Timken Industrial Seals are supported by technical expertise and a robust distribution network, ensuring reliable performance and improved machinery efficiency across diverse industrial applications.
