Timken Metric 2TS taper bearing assemblies are available in three different design formats
2TS-DM is Direct Mount. These assemblies are comprised of two single-row bearings with abutting back facing inner rings and an outer ring spacer with lubricating holes is typical. These are generally used at fixed positions on rotating shaft applications
2TS-IM is Indirect Mount. These assemblies are comprised of two single-row bearings with an inner and outer ring spacer. In some applications, a shoulder in the bearing housing replaces the outer ring spacer
2TS-TM is Tandem Mount. Where combined radial and thrust load capacity is required, but the thrust component is exceptional and beyond the capacity of a single bearing (within a given maximum OD), two single-row bearings can be mounted in tandem. Appropriate inner and outer ring spacers are supplied.Timken offers multiple hands-on videos created to assist you in the installation & disassembly of multiple Timken products.
Make sure you apply the correct torque and measure the "bench end play" before completing any taper bearing installation.For more detailed bearing nomenclature with regards to prefixes & suffixes, refer to pages iv ~ xi in the attached Timken 699 catalog .pdf
For detailed information regarding factory pre-set "bench end plays" on assemblies, please feel free to call or email for availability.
Unmachined "green" spacer rings, if available, may be purchased to create custom assemblies, please feel free to call or email for availability.
