For maintenance teams that mount bearings and other interference-fit components, the SKF TMBH induction heater offers a flameless, contact-free way to expand parts before installation. Heat is generated electromagnetically inside the workpiece, so the fit can be made without hammering or other mechanical force that might harm races or cages. MR Industrial Accessories LLC supplies this line to plants and repair operations across the United States, Canada, Mexico and South America.

Reading the model code is the first step. The TMBH family covers several sizes, and each designation carries a number and suffix that tell you the thermal capacity and which yoke or accessory comes with the unit. For instance, TMBH 1-1B is one configuration within that range. The safest approach is to copy the full code from the nameplate or the manual rather than guessing from the series alone.

These heaters are used wherever a bearing, bushing, pulley or coupling must be seated with an interference fit. Food processing, cement, mining, paper and heavy transport operations use induction heating for this purpose, as do electric motor and gearbox repair shops. The goal is to lower the risk of damaging bearing races or cages during mounting.

When selecting a unit, look at three things: the diameter of the part, its weight and the temperature required for the fit. Because induction heating is controllable, it helps avoid the overheating that can change the heat treatment of the steel. Operate the heater according to the manufacturer's guidance on heating times, sensors and demagnetization, and make sure the part is clean and properly aligned before it cools.

SKF TMBH heaters can be used with bearings and interference-fit parts from other manufacturers, provided the dimensions and weight fall within the unit's range. Matching codes between brands is not necessary; thermal capacity and part size are what matter. If anything is unclear, send the part data and our team will help you confirm the right model.
