Timken Series S split housings are cast iron housings that open into two halves to mount split cylindrical roller bearings without dismantling the shaft or the drive. They are used in continuous process equipment where every stop is costly: conveyor belts, mills, pumps, fans and gearboxes. MR Accesorios Industriales sells them in Buenos Aires, Argentina, with technical advice to choose the right size.

The Series S designation reads as a letter followed by a sequential number: each code corresponds to a size within this family. The number does not indicate diameter or width on its own; each code corresponds to a construction combination of housing, cap and associated bearing. So, to request a quote, send us the full code shown on the equipment or on the housing nameplate. The series is divided into MEDIUM SERIES SUPPORT and HEAVY SERIES SUPPORT, two levels of robustness for different loads.

In Argentine industry these housings appear in clinker and mineral conveyors, cement mills, high-flow centrifugal pumps, induced draft fans and belt gearboxes. Also in aggregate processing plants and in the oilseed industry. The advantage of the split design is maintenance without dismantling: the top cap is removed, the bearing is replaced and it is closed again. That reduces downtime hours and avoids major work on the shaft.

To select the right housing you have to start from the split bearing it will house and from the shaft diameter. Then the MEDIUM or HEAVY series is defined according to the radial load and the working conditions. During assembly, check the alignment of the two halves and the tightening of the joining bolts; a poorly seated gasket lets contaminants in. Lubrication is done with consistent grease and renewed according to the duty cycle. If the equipment runs with vibration, check the housing fit on the base.

Split housings are interchanged between manufacturers by part number and by the size of the bearing they house, not by the series letter. Timken, SKF, FAG and NSK use their own nomenclatures for the same function. If you have the original code from another brand, send it: at MR Accesorios Industriales we tell you the compatible alternative. The letter does not have to match; what matters is the housing geometry and the bearing it takes.

To request a quote for your Timken Series S housing, write to us on WhatsApp with the full code and, if you can, a photo of the nameplate or the assembled unit. With that we will quote you promptly. If the housing you are looking for does not appear among the codes you see, send us the model or the bearing size anyway: we will handle it and reply with the option you need.
