Description
Timken® Tapered Roller Bearings
Timken® Tapered Roller Bearings are engineered for precision, durability, and performance under demanding conditions. Designed with a unique geometry that combines a tapered inner and outer raceway with tapered rolling elements, these bearings are built to manage both radial and axial loads efficiently — even in the most challenging environments.
Each Timken bearing is manufactured to exacting standards using premium steel and advanced heat-treatment processes, ensuring superior wear resistance, low friction, and consistent performance. The optimized internal design allows for accurate alignment and high load-carrying capacity, making them ideal for applications in heavy machinery, automotive axles, gearboxes, agricultural equipment, and industrial power transmission systems.
Timken’s proprietary surface finishing and precision tolerances help reduce operating temperatures and extend bearing life. Available in single-row and double-row configurations, Timken tapered roller bearings deliver dependable operation, smooth rotation, and exceptional longevity.

How to Read a Timken Bearing Number
Timken uses two designation systems. Metric bearings follow the ISO standard — multiply the last two digits by 5 for bore diameter (special codes: 00=10mm, 01=12mm, 02=15mm, 03=17mm). Inch tapered roller bearings use Timken's own system with a duty-class prefix, angularity digit, and separate part numbers for the cone (inner ring + rollers + cage) and cup (outer ring). Suffixes are separated by spaces or dots.
