The cup is the outer ring of a tapered roller bearing. In the Timken TSF series, this cup is combined with a cone of the same basic number to form an assembly that supports radial and axial loads in a single direction. It is used in applications where precision and load capacity are critical, such as gearboxes, wheel hubs and industrial equipment. MR Accesorios Industriales sells this cup as part of its bearing line.
The TSF series designation is read by the basic number and the suffix. In the example 553-SB, the number 553 identifies the tapered assembly, and the suffix SB indicates a cup variant with specific dimensional characteristics. The TSF series groups single-row tapered roller cups, designed to be mounted with cones of the same series. Learn more about this nomenclature by asking via WhatsApp.
These cups are used in industries such as metallurgy, cement, mining and food processing. In Argentina, they are common in speed reducers, conveyors, mills and earthmoving equipment. Their ability to support combined loads makes them suitable for shafts with high mechanical demands. MR Accesorios Industriales sells them for replacement and new projects.
To correctly select a TSF cup, take into account the cone number to be used, since both must be of the same series and basic number. Mounting requires precise alignment and adequate lubrication; sealing of the assembly depends on the application design. Check the axial clearance recommended by the equipment manufacturer to avoid premature failures.
Timken cups are interchangeable with those of other manufacturers that follow the same dimensional standards, such as equivalent series from SKF, FAG or NSK. However, it is essential to verify the basic number and tolerances to ensure compatibility. At MR Accesorios Industriales we indicate the compatible alternative if you send us the original code.
If you need this cup or its corresponding cone, write to us via WhatsApp with code 553-SB or the complete bearing designation. We quote you shortly and advise you so the selection is correct.

- The cup is the outer ring and the cone is the inner ring with the rollers. They are mounted separately and form an assembly. To replace a bearing, both are generally changed. Send the complete code and we quote both parts.
- Is the 553-SB cup compatible with other brands?
- Yes, it is interchangeable with cups from other brands that follow the same dimensions and tolerances. Always verify the basic number and specifications. At MR we indicate the compatible alternative if you ask via WhatsApp.
- How do I know which cup I need for my equipment?
- You need the original bearing serial number or the housing dimensions. With that data, we quote the appropriate Timken cup. Write to us via WhatsApp with the code or dimensions and we advise you shortly.
