By tensioning, preloading increases the natural frequency of a structure, avoiding resonance due to external disturbances. It also prevents buckling if stresses change depending on position in certain systems. In the particular case for bearings and fasteners, preload reduces or cancels backlash or dead zones.
The contact area is flooded with the lubricant or grease being tested. The Timken OK Load is the highest standard load at which the spinning bearing race produces no scouring mark on the test block, but only a uniform wear scar. [1] Timken OK Loads are listed on grease and oil property charts and are part of many specifications.
In 1898, Henry Timken was awarded a patent [2] for the tapered roller bearing which used conical rollers. At the time, Timken was a carriage-maker in St. Louis and held three patents for carriage springs. However, it was his patent for tapered roller bearings that allowed his company to become successful.
The Timken Company is a global manufacturer of bearings and power transmission products. [4] Timken operates from 42 countries. The Timken Company brands include: Timken bearings; GGB bearings; American Roller Bearing and Engineered Solutions Group (iMECH); Lagersmit sealing solutions; Rollon, Nadella and Rosa Sistemi linear motion products; Philadelph
A Rockwell hardness tester. The Rockwell hardness test is a hardness test based on indentation hardness of a material. The Rockwell test measures the depth of penetration of an indenter under a large load (major load) compared to the penetration made by a preload (minor load). [1]
The air bearing with vacuum preload and a constant bearing gap height floats contact-less on top of the rotary table. Adjustment slider for optics production The linear slider, which is air-guided and statically determined, guarantees a high-precision positioning of the optical component before grinding.

The Santa Fe was the first company to have roller bearing trucks made by Timken under their passenger cars, much to the delight of their passengers, and the bottom line for the company. Timken commissioned the construction of a demonstration boxcar in 1943 that was first displayed at the 1948 Chicago Rail Fair.
