Timken TS Series Cone for Tapered Roller Bearings
The Timken TS series cone is the inner component of a tapered roller bearing: it combines the inner raceway, the cage and the rollers. It is matched with a cup of the same series to form the complete assembly. It is used in applications with combined radial and axial loads, and where rigidity and load capacity are required. MR Accesorios Industriales supplies this line as a brand in Buenos Aires, Argentina.
The designation of these cones is read from the catalog number: for example, 00050, 247, 334, 335, 336, 339, 342 or 343. Each part number identifies a specific cone geometry, and the TS or TSF series indicates the assembly type and its mounting system. The TS suffix corresponds to the standard version; TSF, to a variant with particular sealing or fixing characteristics. To select the assembly, the cone must be matched with the corresponding cup of the same series number.
These cones are used in equipment where tapered roller bearings are the usual choice: gearboxes, drive shafts, road machinery, earthmoving equipment, pumps, fans and conveyors. In Argentine industry they appear in maintenance of food plants, cement plants, steel mills, oilseed plants and in the agro-industrial sector, especially in seeders and combine harvesters. Also in heavy machinery repair shops and in equipment manufacturers that assemble their own assemblies.
To choose correctly, take into account the cone-cup combination: the series number must match to ensure correct roller contact. Mounting is done with an interference fit on the cone and a sliding fit on the cup, depending on the type of load. Lubrication and sealing are key: without a suitable seal, dust or water contaminate the raceway and shorten service life. Shaft alignment and axial clearance also influence performance. If you need guidance, send us the part number and we will indicate the compatible alternative.
Regarding equivalences, tapered roller bearings are identified by numbering systems that can vary between manufacturers. The same size can have different designations depending on the brand, and they are not always interchangeable without verifying dimensions and tolerances. Therefore, the safest option is to request a quote using the complete cone and cup part number. MR Accesorios Industriales advises you to find the combination that best suits your equipment, whether with the Timken brand or another compatible alternative.
