Description

When you’re hearing that telltale rumble from your equipment or noticing play in rotating shafts, it’s time to address the problem before you’re stuck with a seized bearing. You know how much grief a failed bearing can cause. When you’re in the middle of planting or harvest and a wheel bearing starts howling, you’ve got bigger problems than just the noise. This Timken 566 tapered roller bearing cone is built to handle the loads, dirt, and vibration that come with working agricultural equipment.

2-3/4 inch inside diameter cone that provides reliable support for heavy rotating shafts
1.42 inch width gives you solid load distribution across the bearing surface
Straight bore design for direct shaft mounting without adapters or sleeves
Properly hardened steel construction that resists wear and runs true even when things get dusty and dirty
0.140 inch maximum shaft fillet radius accommodation for flexible installation

Built for Real Farm Work

This bearing serves in wheel hubs, axle assemblies, and transmission applications where you need reliable support for rotating shafts. Tapered roller bearings like this one are workhorses in agricultural equipment because they can handle the combination of heavy loads and side forces that comes with farm work. You’ll find similar bearings in everything from tractor transmissions and final drives to implement gearboxes and PTO assemblies where precise shaft positioning and smooth operation matter.

Made to Last

Timken has been making bearings for farm equipment since before your granddad was farming, and they know what it takes to survive in agricultural conditions. Farm equipment faces mud, dust, moisture, and heavy loads that quickly destroy inferior bearings. This cone is engineered to handle the punishment and keep your equipment running season after season.

Installation Notes

This bearing cone works as part of a complete tapered roller bearing system with its matching cup. Always replace bearings in complete sets and use fresh, high-quality wheel bearing grease during installation. The straight bore design makes installation straightforward, and the standard tolerance ensures proper fit with your equipment’s specifications.
