Moline Type E Tapered Roller Bearings offer many advantages including high-speed suitability, positive locking to the shaft, ruggedness, and low price. The housings are as compact as possible without sacrificing their brawny ruggedness. Made in the USA of high quality Class 30 cast iron, they are precision machined to close tolerances. On each end of the inner race there is a Drive Collar with two headless set screws. Moline uses only genuine Timken Tapered Roller Bearings. They are made from vacuum degassed steel which gives rollers and races added life, and provides superior load and speed characteristics.
A long inner race insures load distribution over a considerable length of shaft. In addition, the arrangements of Timken rollers and races is such that Moline Type E Mounted Bearings will handle slight angular shaft misalignment. These bearings also have high radial and thrust load capacities, and are capable of handling most combinations of loads found in all normal applications.
Moline Type E Bearings are ready to slip onto the shaft when received, because they are completely assembled, adjusted, sealed and pre-lubricated at the factory. There is no danger of bearing failure resulting from dirt or dust entering the bearing before or during installation. Such contamination is very difficult to prevent in bearings that are not shaft ready. No time or expense is required for cleaning housings, for adjusting, or for initial lubrication. Therefore, overall installed cost is less in many instances. The V-Guard contact seal, which is built in at each end of the bearing during factory assembly, effectively seals against loss of lubricant and admission of dust and dirt, both on and off the shaft. Efficiency of the seal is consistent throughout the allowable range of self-alignment. Bore tolerance is +.001"/-.000" for 3" and smaller bores; +.002"/-.000" for bores larger than 3".
