Aerospace bearing
TIMKEN

When a 500-ton airplane touches down on the runway, all the load is transmitted from the airframe to the ground through the landing wheels. Under these severe conditions, the wheels accelerate from 0 to 170 MPH in less than a second and experience temperature ranges from sub-zero at 30,000 feet to the extreme heat at braking.

At Timken we use our experience to make the best bearings for this application and help to make every landing a safe one. The 629 performance code was created in cooperation with the leading wheel and brake manufacturers around the globe. These wheel producers depend on Timken and our expertise to make each touch down a moment you can trust.

Timken supports this business with dedicated engineering and a well trained service group that can assess problems and help you maximize your investment safely.
