Type TP-Thrust Cylindrical Roller Bearing
Designed to operate under heavy loads at moderate speed, standard versions of type TS bearings can be operated at peripheral speeds of up to 3,000 feet per minute. Special design features are available for both the bearing and mounting, permitting even higher rotational speeds for this bearing type.

Size range:
50.8 mm to 609.6 mm (2 in. to 24 in.)

Type TPS-Self-aligning Thrust Cylindrical Roller Bearing
The TPS type thrust cylindrical bearing is similar to type TP, except the bottom washer is comprised of two races, with the contacting faces spherically ground. The TPS bearing is self-adjusting to initial misalignment. It is not suggested for applications where alignment may be continuously changing (dynamic misalignment).

Size range:
50.8 mm to 406.4 mm (2 in. to 16 in.)

Design Attributes:
Bottom washer design makes bearing adaptable to initial misalignment.
Overlapping roller paths prevent “grooving” of races and prolong bearing life.
Minor radial displacement of the races does not affect the operation of a TPS bearing, resulting in manufacturing economies and easy installation.
Simple design is the most economical to purchase and install.

Applications:
Construction wheeled equipment
Drilling equipment
Lifting equipment
Power generation gearboxes
