Bearings & Couplings

Description

Engineered with performance-enhancing features for severe-duty applications, Timken^® 454-Series^TM wheel bearings help increase fuel efficiency, improve load-carrying capacity, fit in popular axle and hub designs – and simplify installation – helping you gain fleet uptime.

Longer Bearing Life and Performance

As a leader in tapered roller bearing technology, we engineer bearings to outlast and outperform those frequently used on original equipment.

Design Attributes:

• Engineered steel: Manufactured with super-clean alloy steel, these long-lasting bearings are designed to meet severe-duty application requirements.
• Precision profiles: Internal raceway profiles reduce stress on bearing components by distributing the loads evenly across contact surfaces – increasing load-carrying capacity.
• Tight tolerances: Uniform internal geometry, including angle of contact for cones and rollers, creates a precise match between cup and cone – extending bearing life.
• Enhanced surface finishes: Advanced finishing processes generate smoother surface finishes on races and rollers to reduce friction – helping increase fuel efficiency.
• Flexibility: Engineered for severe-duty applications in any configuration – dual and wide singles – 454-Series wheel bearings maintain consistency and simplicity within fleets.
• Compatibility: 454-Series wheel bearings fit popular axle and hub designs, allowing retrofit into existing equipment.

Applications:
