When a shaft has to sit at a right angle to a flat surface, the Link-Belt series 200 3-hole flange bracket provides a compact, self-aligning and sealed mounted bearing that bolts directly to the structure. MR Industrial Accessories LLC supplies this line to maintenance and purchasing teams across the United States and in several Latin American countries.

Reading the code helps you order without mistakes. In a designation such as FB3U212N, the FB block identifies the flange mount. The number that follows is the nominal shaft size in inches, and the next figure gives the bearing series, here 200. The U marks an insert secured to the shaft with set screws, while the N indicates the housing style. So FB3U212N covers a 2-inch shaft with a series 212 insert, and FB3U216N a 2 1/2-inch shaft with a series 216 insert. Confirm the full part number before asking for a quote.

These brackets turn up on belt conveyors, bucket elevators, mixers, screens and packaging lines. Plants handling food, cement, mining and aggregates often mount them on sheet metal or profile structures. Because the 3-hole pattern lets the unit be fixed vertically or horizontally without any machining of the bracket, replacement on existing equipment stays straightforward.

Selection comes down to shaft diameter, the number of holes and their spacing on the flange, plus the sealing the environment demands. Where dust is heavy or washdown is frequent, an insert with contact seals and an extra lip seal is the better choice. At installation, line the flange up with the shaft, tighten the set screws with the correct wrench and lubricate the insert according to the duty cycle. Misalignment speeds up wear on both the seal and the bearing.

Different brands use their own nomenclatures for mounted brackets. What actually defines interchangeability is the flange dimensions, the shaft diameter and the insert series, not the part number alone. If you are replacing a unit, send the original part number or the flange and shaft measurements, and we will point you to the compatible option within the Link-Belt line we supply.
