The Skf brand of bearings were originally manufactured by "The Skf Bearing Company" which was started in New Britain, Connecticut in 1911.  Founder Howard S. Hart started the company based upon the need at that time for less expensive alternatives to English and German made ball bearings. Today, the Skf brand of ball bearings, which has been owned by several companies including Textron, Inc., and The Torrington Company (which was owned by Ingersoll Rand) is now part of The Timken Company.

Skf super precision ball bearings are designed to meet demanding machine tool requirements for high speeds, accuracy and rigidity. These bearings are available manufactured to ABEC-7 and ABEC-9 tolerances, the most precise tolerances recognized by the ball bearing industry. Most Skf super precision ball bearings have contact angles of 15° or 25° for different combinations of radial and axial loads. Special raceway finishes and ball bearing designs achieve the highest possible operating speeds. Hybrid ceramic bearings are available with steel rings and ceramic balls for special applications involving high speeds and other demanding requirements. Skf Ballscrew support bearings are supplied in sets with 60° contact angles and a maximum ball complement for the high capacity and axial rigidity required for the most precise tool positioning.

Timken Skf housed units are a necessity for tough agricultural applications where tough conditions include crop dust, debris and other contaminants. Timken Skf is found in a wide array of agriculture applications. Each fag bearing is designed with the same idea in mind – to maximize performance.  The wide inner ring design, still preferred in farm equipment applications, provides customers with a product that is easily mounted on straight shafts and positioned without shoulders, locknuts or adapters.

Although SKF bearings are now part of the Timken group, SKF bearings are still branded with the original SKF logo and are sold to many original equipment manufacturers and industrial distributors across the world.
