I don't know if any bearings are USA made anymore. The last Timken Bearings that I bought (about 6-months-ago) were made in China. I didn't use them. I got out my trusty magnifying glass and carefully inspected the bearings that I took out. They were USA made Timkens and not a single flaw. That's the 1st time that I've ever reused old bearings. I've always just packed and installed new ones rather than go through the hassle of cleaning and inspecting the old ones.
