"Timken makes great bearings."

Indeed. Yet the pertinent question is are her bearings gender fluid, or in other words does she have balls?

“Timken makes great bearings.”

Yep the Timken tapered roller bearing.

They brought on a mini-revolution in the railroads. Before roller bearings were used in the trucks there were the sleeve bearings which regularly had to be oiled (recall the “hot boxes”). Also, after cars sat for awhile without moving, the shafts would settle and squeeze out the lubricant, and it would take additional locomotive force to break them loose. Roller bearings don’t have that problem.

Timken is Bushite Deep-state RINO Rob Portman’s hand-picked successor. THAT is everything you need to know about Timken.

NO SALE
