FAQ

Proper mounting is crucial. Always press on the ring being fitted - press the cone onto the shaft and the cup into the housing. Never apply force through the rollers, as this can damage the bearing. Use appropriate tools like a press or bearing heater.

Yes, lubrication is critical. For most industrial applications, a high-quality EP (Extreme Pressure) grease is recommended. The specific type and amount depend on the operating speed, load, and temperature. Always consult your machinery's maintenance manual.

Tapered roller bearings require precise setting of end play (clearance) or preload (interference). This is typically achieved using shims, spacers, or adjusting nuts. An incorrect setting can lead to premature failure. Refer to Timken's engineering manuals or your equipment's specifications for the exact procedure and values.
