 Timken has announced the availability of an online tool that enables original equipment manufacturers, distributors, students and end users to easily locate a Timken housed unit that correctly interchanges with a competitor's part. The Timken Fafnir Housed-Unit Interchange employs an easy-to-follow, three-step process for looking up interchange information using a competitor's part number.
If the part number is unknown, customers can opt for the advanced
interchange process that uses pictures of housings, bearings and seals
to help identify which type of housed unit they have. The interchange
tool then will provide the Timken part that most closely matches the
unit based on critical dimensions and product style.
The
housed-unit interchange highlights dimensional differences between part
numbers and notes whether it's critical to the application. Advanced
housed-unit drawings are also used to help customers visualize the
product and its characteristics when an interchange is suggested. When
customers have located a Timken replacement, a "Timken Advantages"
section lists the distinct benefits of Timken's line of housed units.
