The SKF TIH OF induction heater is an item from the TIH line used to mount bearings and interference-fit parts by thermal expansion. It heats the part in a controlled manner and without contact, which prevents impacts, deformation and contamination. It is a factory tool designed for industrial maintenance, equipment assembly and repairs where press fitting is not viable or not advisable. MR Accesorios Industriales carries this brand and advises you to choose the model according to the part to be mounted.
The designation of the TIH series combines letters and numbers: TIH identifies SKF induction heaters, and the number that follows (for example, 100 in TIH 100-OF) distinguishes the capacity or size of the equipment. The -OF suffix indicates a variant within the series, generally associated with a specific configuration of use or voltage. To correctly interpret each code, it is advisable to follow the published examples and consult when combinations appear that are not listed in the available catalogue.
These items are used in industries in Argentina such as metallurgy, food, cement, mining and petrochemical, as well as maintenance workshops and production plants. They are used to mount bearings, bushings, pulleys, gears and other interference-fit parts onto shafts, taking advantage of thermal expansion to facilitate assembly without forcing the material. They also serve to dismount components that are mounted with interference, provided the part allows controlled heating.
To select the appropriate heater, take into account the diameter and weight of the part to be heated, the type of fit and the maximum permissible temperature of the component. During mounting, control the temperature with the equipment sensors and avoid exceeding the limits of the bearing or seal. Prior cleaning of the part and correct alignment before inserting it onto the shaft are key to avoid damaging the surface. Follow the manufacturer's instructions for the heating cycle and subsequent cooling.
Regarding equivalents and interchangeability, induction heaters from different brands may differ in power, temperature range and accessories. It is not advisable to replace one model with another without verifying that it covers the needs of the application. If you need to compare with other alternatives, the best approach is to start from the exact code of the part and the available equipment. MR Accesorios Industriales can guide you on the options of the brand it carries and help you define the most convenient one for your process.
If you already have the code of the heater or of the part you want to mount, send it via WhatsApp to MR Accesorios Industriales and we will provide the quote. You can also inquire about accessories, sensors or spare parts associated with the TIH series. With more than 80 years of experience in industrial distribution, we support you so that mounting is safe and repeatable.
