Timken® Type E Tapered Roller Bearing Housed Units.

TYPE E OVERVIEW

Our latest innovation is our new series of Timken® Type E roller housed units.  Timken engineers have applied more than 110 years of expertise in bearing design – and leadership in tapered roller bearings – to bring you an optimized performance tapered roller bearing housed unit.  We have improved our own design to create the new standard in performance. Performance life testing data yields a design life for our new Type E bearing that is 55 percent higher than current industry leading designs, which utilize standard Timken bearings.  Timken has also added a double lip seal design to significantly reduce contaminant ingress over competing products.

From the bearings, seals and grease to housings and collars, our innovative design incorporates features that can help withstand the most demanding application conditions – resulting in less downtime, reduced maintenance intervals and an overall lower cost of ownership.

	Slurry ingress test results of the optimized Timken Type E seal compared with the single lip seal design of a leading competitor. Seal operating at 250 rpm in a salt and mud slurry mixture for 75 hours.
	Water ingress test results of the new Timken Type E seal compared with the single lip seal design of a leading competitor. Seal operating at 250 rpm with three gallons of water per minute directed at the shaft-seal interface for four hours.
