Timken Bearings in Houston, Texas
TSB Industrial Supply helps Houston buyers source Timken bearings, especially the tapered roller cones and cups used in gear drives, axles, wheel hubs and heavy rotating equipment.
Timken is an American manufacturer founded by Henry Timken, who patented the tapered roller bearing in 1898. Timken tapered bearings are often sold as separate cones (inner ring and rollers) and cups (outer ring), or as a matched set (e.g. SET 401). Many inch-series part numbers like LM11949/LM11910 originate with Timken and are used industry-wide.
Common Timken bearing types we source
- • Tapered roller cones and cups (inch: LM, L, HM, M series)
- • Matched tapered roller sets (SET numbers)
- • Metric tapered roller bearings (30200, 32000 series)
- • Spherical roller bearings
- • Cylindrical roller bearings
- • Fafnir-line ball bearings and housed units

Don't have the exact part number?
A tapered bearing needs both a cone and a cup. Check whether the number you have is the cone (usually the larger number, e.g. LM11949) or the cup (e.g. LM11910), and tell us if you need the pair or just one half.
On the quote form you can send any of these: manufacturer part number, the number on the existing bearing, dimensions (bore × OD × width), equipment information, photos, or a full parts list.
