Cylinder Liners

By replacing cast-iron cylinder liners with Timken cold-formed steel liners, engine designers achieved a needed horsepower boost and moved towards compliance with 2010 emissions regulations. The steel liners are thinner than the cast iron liners, providing increased displacement and more power without major modifications to the engine design.

Although they are thinner, the steel liners offer increased strength with reduced pitting. That lets engines run longer with reduced maintenance.

Debris Resistant Bearings

Our standard Timken® bearings have proven better at resisting debris damage than even competing debris resistant products. But for especially tough applications, Timken offers a selection of debris resistant bearings.

Made from super-clean, air-melt steel, these bearings are used in applications such as the propel system drivetrains of tracked vehicles that crawl over rocks, dirt and grit.

Where dirt and debris may be a problem, Timken offers analysis tools to evaluate the level of debris and recommend the optimum solution.

Timken Debris Resistant Bearings

• These tapered, spherical and cylindrical roller bearings have special properties to resist damage.

Timken Alloy Steel

• Super-clean, air-melt steel extends the life of bearings and other components, even in the harshest environments.

Debris Analysis

• Analysis helps quantify the effects of debris in the system.

Engineered Surfaces

In construction equipment, components like gears, shafts and bearings don't always operate in optimal conditions.  Where lubrication is unreliable, the environment is dirty or high wear is a problem, Timken Engineered Surfaces may be the solution.

We select from our matrix of processes to modify the surface of your component.  By altering the surface characteristics or applying extremely hard coatings, we impart a lower-friction, abrasion-resistant surface that helps extend the life of your components, even in the harshest conditions.
