Proper spherical roller bearing (SRB) performance is critical, especially considering SRBs are used in nearly 90 percent of paper mill applications. Backed by industry and application expertise, Timken provides a complete line of spherical roller bearing designs ranging from 25 mm bore to 1,500 mm bore that can be utilized throughout the pulp and paper process.

The self-aligning capabilities of an SRB accommodate a combination of radial and thrust loads, internally compensate for shaft deflections and housing distortions caused by shock or heavy loads, and continue to operate “normally” in a misaligned condition.

Whether it’s small bore or extra large bore, we offer the designs, sizes, training and repair services that help keep your mill trouble-free, saving you money.
