The SKF Internal bearing puller kits are designed for dismounting bearings from housings, where the fit is on the outer ring. The pullers are constructed for optimum strength and durability and suit a wide range of bearing bore diameters. A sliding hammer allows high impact forces to be applied and is ergonomically designed to enhance user safety.

The instrument is very simple to use and features adjustable sensitivity and intuitive guidance for superior leak detection results. Any compressed air system can experience leaks, which amplify the load on compressors and increase costs. The TKSU 10 helps users to easily find leaks from a distance, even in noisy industrial environments, via its ultrasound measurement s...

SKF offers a wide range of portable TKRS stroboscopes for visual inspection of running machines in challenging industrial environments. These portable tools provide early detection of abnormalities to help schedule maintenance tasks and reduce additional loads on rotating equipment in order to reach planned performance levels. Designed for ease of use, the four TKRS mode...

The SKF TKRS 41 is a high performance stroboscope for visually inspecting running machines and for determining the machine speed. The stroboscope is robust and characterised by its excellent brightness, allowing usage in challenging industrial environments. The built-in laser speed measurement and simple controls help users to quickly set the correct flash rate and obtai...

The formulation of the greases is very similar with the key difference that LGLS 2 has a higher content of thickener, making it a stiffer NLGI 2 grease and more suitable for higher ambient temperatures.

This grease provides an outstanding fretting and false brinelling protection for bearings under high load in oscillating conditions.

The TWIM 15 is a flat induction plate that does not require a support yoke, making it more versatile and convenient than other bearing heaters. The compact unit is used to expand the bearing inner diameter and hot mount it on the machine shaft. In addition, the TWIM 15 can be used to heat other ring-shaped, metallic components, providing flexibility of use. Also greased ...

Shaft misalignment is a major contributor to rotating machinery breakdowns. Accurately aligning shafts can prevent a large number of machinery breakdowns and reduce unplanned downtime that results in a loss of production. SKF has developed a range of affordable, easy to use shaft alignment tools that are suitable for a majority of alignment tasks. Select your shaft al...

An automatic lubricator is designed to automatically supply a small quantity of clean grease or oil to a lubrication point on a regular basis, thus improving bearing performance. Key benefits of using an automatic lubricator are improved employee safety, increased machine reliability and optimized maintenance operations. SKF SYSTEM 24 lubricators are suitable for a varie...

Induction heating is the recommended method for mounting large size rolling bearings with cylindrical bores. The TIH L33 is a powerful induction heater that is designed for heating bearings with bore diameters from 115 mm to 800 mm with a maximum weight of 700 kg. The strength of the heater is its heating performance with larger bearings. For example, the TIH L33 can saf...

We are pleased to inform you about the launch and availability of the new SKF MultiPoint Automatic Lubricator TLMP 1008. The SKF MultiPoint Automatic Lubricator TLMP series is intended for reliable relubrication of multiple lubrication points. This sturdy automatic lubrication system is packaged as a complete kit, including the lubricator, required tubing and connector...

SKF today announced the introduction of its SKF Shaft Alignment Tool TKSA 71. Designed for professional alignment in harsh industrial environments, the TKSA 71 provides superior alignment performance and long service life. The tool’s easy-to-use, dedicated software applications enable different types of alignments: shaft alignment, soft foot correction, vertical shaf...

The TIH L33 features advanced power electronics with an accurate electric current control to help regulate the temperature rate increase. Its two-step, power setting option of 50 and 100 percent enables smaller bearings to be heated safely with lower power consumption. Also, the TIH L33 has thermal overheating protection to reduce the risk of damage to the induction coil...

that results in accurate alignment and is especially suitable for entry level shaft alignment. The SKF TKSA 11 is the first instrument on the market that uses inductive proximity sensors, enabling accurate and reliable shaft alignment to be affordable for every budget.
