The hundred-year history of The Timken Company is one of the great success stories of U.S. manufacturing. Born in 1899 in a St. Louis, Missouri, carriage factory where Henry Timken developed and patented the Timken tapered roller bearing, the company has expanded to become a global organization and a leader in two key industries: bearings and steel.
