Description

The SKF TIH L/MV is an induction heater from the TIH line, built for mounting bearings and other interference-fit components. It expands metal parts through controlled induction heating, with no open flame and no direct contact, which makes fitting easier and helps protect the bearing from damage. This is a shop tool for industrial maintenance, assembly work and repairs where the fit calls for controlled thermal expansion.
Reading the code helps you narrow down the right unit. TIH is the SKF induction heater family, L refers to the size or capacity within that family, and MV points to the variant supplied with a support or arrangement for vertical mounting. Models such as TIH L33/MV, TIH L44/MV and TIH L77/MV differ in the number placed between the L and the slash. When you request a quote, the full code is what identifies the equipment, so copy it exactly from your list or from the nameplate.
Typical users are plants with motors, pumps, gearboxes, fans and large bearings, along with maintenance and assembly shops that need an interference fit without hammering or a press. Heating the part evenly lets it slide into place with less effort and avoids damage to raceways and cages.
Selection comes down to the diameter and weight of the part, the type of fit and how often the heater is used. Temperature control lets you reach the range needed to expand the part without affecting the bearing heat treatment. Work through the manufacturer's cycle instructions and always fit the support accessories that match the part size.
Induction heaters from different makers can vary in power, temperature range and accessories, and codes do not cross over in a universal way. The SKF TIH L/MV reference is identified by its complete designation. When replacing existing equipment, compare heating capacity and support type before settling on the replacement. We can help you match the code shown on your unit.
For a quote on an SKF TIH L/MV induction heater, send the complete code by WhatsApp or email, for example TIH L44/MV, and tell us which part you plan to mount. With that we can point you to the right option in the line and the accessories that go with it, and suggest equivalents where they exist.
