Bearing identity, application, quantity, destination, and document scope.

What should I send for a bearing quotation?

Send the complete bearing marking, suffix or clear photos, quantity, application equipment, bearing position, destination, required timing, and requested inspection or compliance files.

Send quotation details →
Can TFL review one large bearing or a multi-model BOM?

Yes. Send each model and line-item quantity. Minimum quantity is confirmed by model, configuration, selected supply source, packing, and shipment requirements.

Submit model list →
Can TFL check an SKF, FAG, NSK, or Timken reference?

A buyer-supplied brand and model can identify the installed bearing for an independent comparison. Final selection still requires dimensions, suffix, clearance, cage, bore, loads, speed, temperature, and approval requirements. TFL Bearing is not affiliated with those brands.

After Quotation

Confirm the proposed configuration, commercial scope, files, and timing.

What should I verify in the quotation?

Check the full model and suffix, brand or supply option, quantity, unit and total terms, packing, document list, inspection scope, delivery basis, estimated timing, and quotation validity.

Check suffix details →
How is lead time confirmed?

Lead time depends on model, quantity, selected source, current availability, inspection scope, documents, packing, and shipment method. Use the timing stated in the accepted quotation rather than a site-wide estimate.

Confirm timing →
Can labels, packing, and buyer templates be added?

Send label files, carton or pallet requirements, private-label notes, document templates, required language, and approval deadline before order release. Availability is confirmed in the supply proposal or quotation.

Inspection points, document status, packing, labels, and dispatch details.

Which pre-shipment checks can be requested?

The agreed scope can include model, quantity, visible condition, markings, labels, packing, buyer-defined photos, and named dimensional or test records. Define each required point before quotation or order release.

Set inspection points →
Where can I download TFL certificate files?

The certificate center lists downloadable ISO, RoHS, REACH, and SGS QIP files with issuer, named entity, number, dates, scope, and limits. Match order-specific requirements to the quoted model and selected source.

Can supplier-issued or order-specific files be provided?

Receiving checks, traceability, discrepancies, and technical follow-up.

Review quality scope →
What information helps resolve a delivery discrepancy?

Send the order or quotation reference, affected model and quantity, label and marking photos, packing photos, a concise description, and whether installation has started.

Send discrepancy details →
What should I send for an early bearing failure review?

Send the complete marking, installed position, running hours, load, speed, temperature, lubrication, fits, clearance, vibration trend, failure photos, and any changes made during installation or operation.
