A 3-bolt flange mounted bearing unit from LINK-BELT, series 200, the P3U bracket carries the housing and the insert bearing as one assembly. It suits rotating shafts on equipment that calls for front mounting across three anchoring points, including belt conveyors, mixers, pumps and fans. MR Industrial Accessories supplies this LINK-BELT line and helps you match the right size to your application.

Read the reference in blocks. The P stands for the bracket type, the 3 for how many flange holes it has, and the U tells you an insert bearing is included. The digits that follow, as in P3U210N or P3U216N, give the insert size inside series 200, while the trailing N marks a housing construction variant. Once you have that breakdown, you can pin down the exact reference and send it over for a quote.

You will find these brackets in food and beverage plants, water treatment facilities, cement operations, feedlots and metalworking shops. They turn up on belt and chain conveyors, bucket elevators, agitators, blowers, centrifugal pumps and dryers. Mounting on sheet metal or structure with a fixed orientation, the 3-bolt flange spreads the load over three points, which helps when the shaft carries radial load along with some thrust.

Selection comes down to shaft diameter, the nature of the load and where the unit will sit. Dusty or damp conditions call for a unit with reinforced sealing, and a fast-rotating shaft means checking both lubrication and the internal clearance of the insert. At mounting, set the flange on a flat surface, tighten the three screws evenly and align the shaft before start-up. Misalignment shortens insert bearing life.

Units like this interchange between manufacturers when shaft diameter, hole spacing and center height line up. LINK-BELT is a reference brand in mounted bearings, and other brands use similar nomenclatures. If your equipment carries a different designation, send the old part number or the measurements and we will point you to the compatible LINK-BELT alternative or the one that fits your application best.

MR Industrial Accessories supplies LINK-BELT to customers across the United States and in several Latin American countries.
