Timken Split Cylindrical Roller Bearings: Faster, Safer, Smarter Maintenance

Manufactured at Timken UK Dudley, our split cylindrical roller bearings simplify maintenance, reduce downtime, and improve safety in hard-to-access applications.

When a bearing fails in a hard-to-reach location, repairs can become complex and time-consuming.

Conventional replacements often require removing shafts, couplings, or even gearboxes — adding downtime and labour costs.

Timken split cylindrical roller bearings, produced at our UK Dudley facility, solve this problem. Manufactured in two halves, they can be installed directly around the shaft, eliminating the need to dismantle surrounding equipment.

Benefits include:

  • Faster maintenance.
  • Less Health and Safety issues.
  • Reduced downtime.
