LINK-BELT Split Housings split housing

LINK-BELT Split Housings belongs to split housing, part of our Bearing housings range. Tell us how many you need by WhatsApp or email and we'll get back to you promptly with a quote for Split Housings and any equivalents.

A Link-Belt split housing comes in two halves that close around a mounted spherical roller bearing, so the bearing can be fitted or pulled without taking the shaft or the transmission apart. That matters on equipment where there is little room to work and a repair has to be finished fast, such as conveyors, elevators, mixers and pumps. MR Industrial Accessories LLC supplies this line to customers in the United States and Latin America, and can help you match the right size to the job.

There is no single numeric code for the Split Housings series: the reference follows the bearing size the housing carries. For a quote, send the shaft diameter, the mounted spherical roller bearing type and, when available, the full housing part number. Those details pin down the variant, since the line includes different base profiles, hole counts and sealing arrangements. If the part number is missing, a photo or the equipment drawing is enough for us to identify it with you.

In plant environments these housings show up on belt conveyors, bucket elevators, mills, mixers, centrifugal pumps and other process equipment. Maintenance crews in food, cement, mining, water treatment and chemical operations value the split construction because the bearing can be inspected or swapped with the shaft left in place, which keeps downtime short. The same design suits machines running around dust, moisture or regular washdown.

Selection should account for radial and axial load, running speed and the surrounding conditions. Sealing deserves close attention: dusty or wet areas usually call for extra protection, and hot service means checking the lubricant type and internal clearance. During fitting, line up both halves and tighten the bolts evenly so the housing is not distorted. Proper lubrication and periodic re-torquing keep the assembly working as intended.

Housings from different manufacturers are frequently interchangeable when the bearing size, hole spacing and center height line up. Part numbers alone are not enough, so compare the critical dimensions and the fastening style as well. Our team can advise on equivalences between lines and point you to the option that fits your equipment.

If you already have the size or part number, send it over WhatsApp or email and we will get the quote back to you quickly. If you do not, just tell us which equipment it sits on and which bearing it takes, and we will work it out from there.
