TIMKEN Spherical Roller Bearings are designed specifically to handle harsh and unpredictable operating environments. These bearings are self-aligning, which means they automatically adjust to shaft misalignment and shaft deflection — significantly reducing stress and extending bearing life.
One standout feature is their ability to perform reliably under heavy radial and axial loads, making them ideal for industries such as mining, steel, pulp & paper, cement, and power generation.
Engineered for Misalignment and Maximum Uptime
TIMKEN spherical roller bearings feature:
-
Robust internal geometry to accommodate shaft misalignment up to 2 degrees.
-
Advanced surface finishes for smoother operation and less wear.
-
Heat-treated, high-quality steel cages that withstand high temperatures and resist fatigue.
-
Lubrication-friendly design to ensure consistent performance over time.
These features collectively help to maximize equipment uptime, reduce maintenance frequency, and improve operational reliability.
