(Fairfield, CT – November, 2002) RBC Bearings is now offering the Tyson Tapered Roller Bearings brand, formerly owned by SKF. Tyson Tapered Roller Bearings feature a logarithmic raceway profile that provides for more uniform load carrying capabilities. Performance is greatly enhanced, allowing Tyson Tapered Roller Bearings to naturally perform well in some of the most demanding applications within the transportation industry.
Enhanced performance is achieved in part through optimized roller flange contact and improved flange and roller end surfaces. The rollers, along with the inner and outer rings are case hardened, allowing for reliable performance, in addition to being better able to withstand shock loads. Other design improvements, including refined roller/raceway contact and surface finishes, greatly enhance the bearing's operation. However, the key to better performance is Tyson's design of the inner ring raceway. The special profile more evenly distributes light and heavy loads upon the total length of the race of the inner ring. Even under a heavy, misaligned load, Tyson's logarithmic design more evenly distributes stresses when compared with straight profile or circular crowning.
According to RBC, Tyson Tapered Roller Bearings are manufactured under QS 9000 and ISO 9001:2000 certified quality systems from a high grade of case- hardened bearing-quality steel. The complete roller bearing actually comprises two separate pieces, the cup and the cone. Tyson Tapered Roller Bearing cups and cones can be purchased separately, or purchased together as a set.
In addition to tapered roller bearings, the company also offers Tyson Tapered Thrust Bearings, which were incorporated into the Tyson product line through an acquisition. These bearings are used in various agricultural, construction, heavy truck, and other miscellaneous industrial applications. These bearings are also case carburized for added durability.
Tyson began in 1929 in Massillon, Ohio and has been a solid contributor to the industrial and transportation sectors for years. The company was placed on the Navy's approved material list in 1939 and still supplies various government departments.
RBC Bearings is an industry leader in the development of precision bearing products for a diverse group of applications, including: aerospace, construction, mining and material handling equipment, mobile hydraulics systems, farm machinery, transportation equipment, automation and robotics, machine tool and semiconductor industries, and a host of other industrial applications.
