The LINK-BELT FC 200 series flange bracket is a 4-bolt flange mounted bearing unit. It pairs an insert bearing with a flange housing that bolts to a flat machine face, supporting a shaft that runs perpendicular to that surface. Typical applications include conveyors, mixers and fans. MR Industrial Accessories LLC supplies this line to customers throughout the United States and Latin America.

The code breaks down into three parts. FC stands for the 4-bolt flange bracket. The number that follows gives the insert bearing size within series 200. Any trailing letters indicate options for sealing, locking or housing style. For instance, FC4Y232N is a flange housing with a series 200 insert, and the suffix specifies the seal and shaft locking method. The full code identifies the exact unit.

You will find these brackets on belt and chain conveyors, mixers, fans, screens and other process equipment. Food and beverage plants often select them for cleanability and sealing. Cement, aggregate and mining operations choose them for dust and load resistance. They also appear on agricultural machinery and packaging lines, where the flange mounts directly to sheet metal without machining a seat.

Selection depends on shaft diameter, radial and axial load, and the working environment. Sealing determines protection: in dusty or wet areas, consider a lip seal with an additional radial shaft seal. Shaft locking may use set screws or a taper bushing, depending on the insert. During installation, set the flange on a clean, flat surface, tighten bolts in a cross pattern, and verify shaft alignment before lubricating. Proper lubrication and periodic retightening help extend assembly life.

4-bolt flange brackets are interchangeable between manufacturers when flange dimensions, shaft diameter and insert type match. LINK-BELT is a well-known name in this family, and equivalents from other brands exist. To replace a unit, compare the complete code, hole count, hole diameter and center distance. If the housing differs, the bracket may be adapted or a compatible alternative considered.
