In connection with The Timken Company, "The Worldwide Leader in Bearings and Steel," IBT will conduct a full-day Bearing School for maintenance specialists. Class will be led by bearing experts from IBT and Timken. Instruction will be industry-wide and not devoted to a specific brand.

The session is scheduled for Friday, April 23, 2004 in Kansas City (exact location to be announced).

The training offers a comprehensive understanding of the following topics:

• Bearing types
• Where and how they are used
• Bearing terminology

At the end of the day, attendees will have learned how to save money by eliminating time-consuming maintenance practices and by increasing bearing life.

The training session will offer sections on:

• Ball bearings
• Needle bearings
• Spherical roller bearings
• Bearing maintenance

Class will meet from 8:30 am to 4:30 pm. Lunch will be provided.
