Its subsidiaries also make alloy steels and specialty steels for industrial and automotive customers. Timken's products can also be found in computer peripherals and dental tools. Five generations of the Timken family, including chairman William R. Timken Jr., have served the company since its founding by retired carriage maker Henry Timken in 1899. Henry's heirs continue to run the company.
