Description

When your baler’s bearings start wearing out, you can hear it long before you see it. That grinding sound coming from the pickup or feeding mechanism means it’s time to replace that bearing before it takes out something more expensive. This Timken specialty ag bearing is built specifically for the tough conditions your baler faces—dust, chaff, and constant vibration that would destroy a regular bearing in no time.

What You’re Getting

Specialty agricultural design that handles the harsh environment inside a baler
1-1/4 inch hex bore that fits shafts perfectly without slipping or spinning
Factory sealed construction keeps dirt and debris out while holding the grease in
80mm outer diameter with precise tolerances for smooth operation
Heavy-duty construction that stands up to the shock loads of pickup mechanisms

Built for Real Farm Work

This bearing is designed for baler applications where standard bearings just can’t cut it. The hex bore design locks onto the shaft without needing keyways or set screws, which is perfect for the rotating assemblies in pickup heads and feeding mechanisms. Whether you’re baling hay, straw, or stalks, this bearing keeps things spinning smoothly when the going gets tough.

Made to Last

Timken builds these bearings specifically for agricultural use, using materials and sealing systems that handle the dust, moisture, and temperature swings that come with baling. The sealed design means you won’t be crawling under the baler with a grease gun every few hours, and the specialty steel construction handles the constant pounding without wearing out prematurely.

Installation Notes

This is a direct replacement bearing that slides right onto the hex shaft. Make sure the shaft is clean and free of burrs before installation. A light coating of anti-seize on the shaft makes future removal easier if needed. Double-check that the bearing seats fully against any shoulders or spacers in your particular application.
