Bevel gear
TIMKEN

Timken manufactures both parallel axis and spiral bevel gears for use in aerospace applications. We manufacture gears up to Class 15 AGMA tolerances. Our gear offering includes:

Spiral bevels
Helicals
Spurs
Splines (straight and crowned)
Curvics

Timken utilizes only the highest quality materials for its gears, including carburizing 9310 and Pyrowear X-53, and nitriding steel. In addition, we use a variety of processes to create surfaces that resist fatigue, wear and corrosion, while reducing friction. Our in-house heat treat and vacuum carburization capabilities enable us to control required metallurgical characteristics to exacting specifications. All gears undergo nondestructive testing and inspection. In addition, if required, some of our gears will undergo isotropic superfinishing which also enhances gearbox wear resistance.
