A bit of searching on their site takes one to:

http://www.timken.com/media/logo/

Where it says:
``The Timken logo is not a font. It cannot be reproduced by typing it
in any font. Please use the artwork provided.''

That said, it's a fairly typical condensed bracketed slab serif so you
could start w/ Cheltenham and mangle as necessary.
