SKF
Founded Sweden, 1907. The world's leading bearings and rotating equipment company. We are an SKF Certified Maintenance Partner — meaning we are trained, audited and authorised to deliver SKF reliability services in the field.
ABOUT SKF
AB SKF was founded in Gothenburg, Sweden in 1907 by Sven Wingquist. Over a century later it is the world's largest bearing manufacturer with operations in more than 130 countries. SKF's portfolio extends well beyond bearings — to seals, lubrication systems (through its Lincoln Industrial subsidiary), condition monitoring instruments and software, and a global reliability services business serving rotating-equipment-intensive industries.
SKF's investment in reliability technology — vibration analysis, ultrasound, oil analysis, alignment, balancing — has shaped how heavy industry approaches predictive maintenance. As an SKF Certified Maintenance Partner, we deliver these services on the SKF platform, with SKF instruments, to SKF protocols.
