Timken acquires Revolvo Ltd.

North Canton, Ohio-based Timken Co. has reached an agreement with Eriks NV to acquire the assets of Revolvo Ltd., Dudley, U.K. Revolvo makes and markets ball and roller bearings for industrial applications in process and heavy industries. The company's split roller bearing housed units are used by mining, power-generation, food and beverage, pulp and paper, metals, cement, marine, and wastewater end users.

The split-to-the-shaft roller bearing housed units enable the bearing to be fitted without requiring access to the shaft ends. Instead, it can be built around the shaft, so no other drive components must be removed during installation or for maintenance.

The Timken Co. produces bearings, transmissions, gearboxes, and chain and offers power system rebuild and repair services.
