LINK-BELT PLB flange bearing units are 4-bolt flange housings that support rotating shafts on flat surfaces. They suit applications where the shaft runs at a right angle to the mounting face and where a compact, self-aligning, sealed assembly is required. MR Industrial Accessories supplies this line with options for various shaft sizes.

The PLB code denotes the 4-bolt flange housing family. The digits that follow, as in PLB23152 or PLB23180, indicate the series and shaft size: the first part identifies the series, while the final digits specify the dimensional variant. For example, PLB23152 and PLB23180 share the same configuration but differ in housing diameter. To select, provide the full code or the shaft size you require.

Typical installations include conveyors, elevators, mixers, pumps, fans, and process lines. In food, chemical, and aggregate operations, these units are selected for their straightforward mounting on sheet metal or structural steel and for sealing that withstands dusty or damp conditions. They also appear in material handling equipment and in machinery where the shaft must be square to the flange.

When choosing, consider shaft diameter, expected radial and axial loads, and the sealing type appropriate for the environment. Mounting demands a flat, clean surface; tighten the four bolts in a cross pattern without forcing the flange. Renew lubrication according to the duty cycle, and verify shaft alignment to prevent stress on the bearing. If vibration or high temperature occurs, inspect clearance and seal condition.

4-bolt flange housings are offered by various brands under their own part numbering systems. Interchangeability depends on flange dimensions, shaft diameter, and locking method, not solely on the code. When comparing with another brand, cross-check the mounting drawing and load capacity. MR will identify a compatible alternative.
