TIMKEN MACHINE TOOL CATALOG Inasmuch as Timken is not familiar with a customer’s particular storage conditions, these guidelines are strongly suggested. However, the customer may very well be required by circumstance or applicable government requirements to adhere to stricter storage requirements. Most bearing types are typically shipped protected with a corrosionpreventive compound that is not a lubricant. Such bearings may be used in oil-lubricated applications without removal of the corrosion-preventive compound. When using some specialized grease lubrication it is advisable to remove...

Typical considerations in machine design also include optimization of controllable variables affecting application performance: Bearing design. Installation and handling requirements of the bearing, as well as shaft and housing preparation. Presence of adequate sealing for the exclusion of contaminants; types of foreign materials possible. Lubricating method (lubrication type and delivery system). Bearing shaft and housing arrangement; shaft and housing material. Maintenance procedures and intervals. Boundary (or fixed) conditions that should be taken into consideration include: External...
