As exercise equipment becomes more varied and sophisticated, Timken continues to meet diverse requirements for friction management, envelope restrictions, cost-effectiveness and reduced noise. For example, our unitized assembly for exercise bike cranks reduces the number of components needed and provides a bolt-on unit that simplifies handling and installation.

Likewise, our drawn cup roller clutches provide the alternating locking and overrunning action that powers rowing machine flywheels.

• Stair steppers
• Treadmills

Timken products offer the following advantages for these applications:

• Compact product designs for overall reduced weight and envelope size.
