RFQ & Quotation
Model numbers, quantities, BOMs, documents, and quotation preparation.
How do I request a spherical roller bearing quotation?
Send the current bearing model, full suffix or marking photo, quantity, application equipment, destination, and document requirements through the RFQ form. TFL Bearing can then review sourcing routes and quotation details.

Browse applications →Can adjacent bearing types be included in the same RFQ?
Yes. TFL can review spherical roller thrust bearings, cylindrical roller bearings, tapered roller bearings, split spherical roller bearings, mounted SRB units, and application-specific product routes when they are included in the same BOM or sourcing request.
Compare bearing lines →Replacement & Cross-Reference
Buyer-supplied model references, suffix review, and non-affiliation boundaries.
Can TFL review SKF, FAG, NSK, or Timken model references?
Yes. Buyer-supplied brand and model references can be used to identify the existing bearing and prepare technical RFQ review. TFL Bearing is not affiliated with those brands and does not represent them.
Review replacement routes →Does cross-reference review confirm brand authorization or final fit?
No. Cross-reference review is a technical and sourcing intake step. Final fit should be reviewed against dimensions, suffix, clearance, cage, bore type, application load, speed, temperature, and buyer approval requirements.
Read cross-reference guide →Which details help replacement review?

Download certificates →Can supplier-side IATF, ISO 14001, ISO 45001, or MTC files be provided?
Supplier-side documents can be requested during RFQ. Availability depends on the selected bearing type, supplier route, order quantity, destination, and buyer document standard.

TFL can coordinate available inspection report scope, packing photos, label photos, model checks, quantity checks, and shipment document review after RFQ details and order requirements are clear.
