Product Overview: FL 210 2-Bolt Flange Bearing Housing
The FL 210 is a robust two-bolt oval flange housing unit, an essential component in our FL 200 Series of Bearing Housings. Specifically designed to be paired with a UC 210 insert bearing, this unit provides secure mounting for a 50mm shaft. Its cast iron construction ensures durability and stability, making it ideal for applications where a shaft needs to be mounted perpendicularly to a machine wall or frame. The oval shape and two-bolt design allow for straightforward installation and adjustment in space-constrained environments.
As a leading supplier of industrial mechanical parts, we ensure our FL 210 housings meet high-quality standards, providing a reliable and cost-effective solution for a wide range of machinery. This housing protects the insert bearing from contaminants and physical damage while providing a rigid support structure. Explore our full range of bearing housings and insert ball bearings to find the perfect combination for your application.
Key Features of the FL 210 Housing
- Durable Cast Iron Construction: Offers high strength and vibration damping for reliable performance in industrial environments.
- Two-Bolt Mounting Design: Simplifies installation on flat surfaces, allowing for easy positioning and securing.
- Spherical Bearing Seat: The inner sphere of the housing is designed to accommodate the outer sphere of an insert bearing, allowing for compensation of initial static misalignment.
- Relubrication Capability: Equipped with a grease nipple (zerk) that allows for easy maintenance and extends the service life of the bearing.
- Compatibility: Perfectly matched for use with UC 210, UK 210, and other dimensionally equivalent 210 series insert bearings for 50mm shafts.
- Compact and Efficient Design: The oval flange shape is ideal for applications where mounting space is limited.
Common Applications
- Conveyor Systems: Used to support conveyor rollers and drive shafts, ensuring smooth material flow.
- Agricultural Machinery: Found in equipment such as combines, balers, and spreaders where reliable shaft support is critical.
- Food and Beverage Processing: Suitable for processing lines, packaging machines, and bottling equipment.
- Industrial Fans and Blowers: Provides stable mounting for fan shafts in HVAC systems and industrial ventilation.
- Textile and Printing Machinery: Ensures precise alignment and support for rollers and rotating components.
- Packaging Equipment: Ideal for mounting shafts in cartoners, wrappers, and labeling machines.
- Mining and Construction: Used in light to medium-duty equipment where robust housing is necessary.
Benefits of Using the FL 210 Housing
- Simplified Installation: The two-bolt design reduces mounting time and complexity compared to more intricate housing types.
- Improved Machine Uptime: Protects the insert bearing from external elements, reducing the risk of premature failure and costly downtime.
- Enhanced Operational Stability: Provides a rigid and secure base for rotating shafts, minimizing vibration and ensuring consistent performance.
- Cost-Effective Maintenance: The ability to replace only the insert bearing, rather than the entire unit, offers a significant long-term cost saving.
- Versatile Mounting Solution: Can be used in a wide variety of industrial applications requiring perpendicular shaft mounting.
- Extended Component Lifespan: Relubrication features and misalignment compensation help to maximize the operational life of the enclosed bearing.
