The outer ring of a tapered roller bearing assembly, this TIMKEN TS series cup sits in the housing and provides the raceway for the rollers. When paired with the matching cone, it forms a complete bearing that handles both radial and axial forces in one direction. It is commonly used in gearboxes, transmission cases, wheel hubs, and industrial machinery where high load capacity and rigidity are required.
Reading the cup designation is straightforward: the base number is followed by the letter A, as seen in 332A, 354A, or 369A. That final letter marks a specific cup variant within the TIMKEN tapered roller family, with dimensions and angles tailored to each application. The TS series includes cups that work with cones of the same family to build a complete bearing. When requesting a quote, always provide the exact part number from the part itself or your equipment drawing.
These cups appear throughout power transmission equipment: speed reducers, gear cases, agricultural machine shafts, conveyors, and road machinery. They are also found in metalworking, such as machine tool spindles and rolling mill rolls. Their ability to manage combined loads makes them a go-to choice where the shaft experiences simultaneous radial and axial forces.
Choosing the right cup means checking the outer diameter, width, and contact angle your application needs. Installation requires careful alignment with the cone and proper lubrication; in dirty or wet conditions, extra seals are worth considering. Internal clearance is set based on load type and operating speed. A misaligned or poorly fitted cup shortens the bearing's service life.
TIMKEN tapered roller cups are interchangeable with other brands that follow the same standardized dimensions, including SKF, FAG, NSK, and NTN, as long as the series number and tolerances line up. At MR Industrial Accessories LLC, we help you find the right equivalent and avoid mounting mistakes. If you need a cup that is not listed, message us on WhatsApp with the part number or dimensions and we will quote it promptly.

Frequently asked questions
- What does the letter A mean in the cup designation?
- The letter A at the end identifies a particular variant within the TIMKEN cup series. Each part number, such as 332A or 369A, carries its own dimensions and angles. To get the right part, send us the complete number stamped on the bearing or shown on your drawing.
- How do I know if the TIMKEN cup is compatible with my cone?
- The cup and cone must share the same series and base number to form a complete bearing. If you are unsure, write to us on WhatsApp with the cone part number or assembly dimensions, and we will tell you which cup fits.
- What lubrication do you recommend for these bearings?
- Lubrication depends on speed, load, and environment. For general industrial use, high-pressure grease or oil is applied according to the equipment manufacturer's guidelines. At MR we advise you based on your specific situation.
