Fleet Maintenance: Wheel Bearing Preload vs. Endplay
What’s the best way to ensure a safe, consistent setting for every wheel bearing in your fleet? The debate traditionally came down to bearing preload versus endplay: two different approaches to installing wheel ends while allowing the bearings to spin freely. In real-world driving conditions, even a slight amount of endplay inevitably leads to a […]
Adjustable Bearing Spacers for Industrial Conveyors: Simplified Maintenance and Longer Bearing Life
Bearing spacers are a simple yet crucial part installed throughout industrial conveyor systems. The bearings themselves are what allow all of the conveyor rollers to spin freely, and every individual bearing requires precision spacing to ensure smooth operation. The easiest, most cost-effective way to achieve proper bearing spacing is by installing Temper’s adjustable bearing spacers. […]
Adjustable Spacer Load Rings for Hydraulic Pumps – Easier Installation and Longer Bearing Life
Load rings are a critical component in the operation of hydraulic pumps. Without these relatively simple parts, industrial pump equipment requires the manual shimming of bearings – a complex, time-consuming process. That’s why we’ve developed the Temper Adjustable Spacer load ring. This precision spacer is designed to crush at a constant force over a wide […]

Adjustable Spacers in Mining
Although mining is one of the oldest industries, mining engineering continually pushes the boundaries of technology. This $4 billion industry relies on cutting-edge engineering and manufacturing of effective heavy equipment for the ongoing discovery and harvesting of raw materials. This drives mining engineers to find effective solutions for a number of challenges, including: Balancing load […]
Constant Force Adjustable Spacers Case Study
Simplify Design. Streamline Assembly. Save Time. A Temper Corp Customer Experience Story Temper Corp recently got the chance to sit down with Brian at PT Tech to discuss their experience with our constant force adjustable spacers. Brian had learned of our product from a manager of his, who had picked up a sample of […]
Eliminating Shimming and Guesswork in Powertrains
Powertrain engineering involves hundreds of parts, complex calculations, and careful modeling, requiring advanced technical skills and function-optimized design knowledge. From design to analysis to testing, companies rely on innovative and systematic professionals to develop reliable conventional, electric, and hybrid powertrain concepts for production. Engineers must account for everything from filtration to fluid flow and environmental […]
How Adjustable Spacers Work
An adjustable spacer is a type of spacer that works as a predictable, constant force that creates even spacing between parts in a machine. It eliminates the need for measuring and shimming, making the assembling process faster and more efficient. Load rings are a valuable tool for quality assurance because they help manufacturers reduce assembly […]
