The LINK-BELT 200 series insert bearing is a ball bearing with an extended inner ring, made to sit in split or pillow block housings and form a compact support unit for a rotating shaft. It suits equipment that needs simple alignment and maintenance that is easy to reach, such as conveyors, fans, mixers and plant machinery. MR Industrial Accessories supplies this line and can help you pick the right variant for your shaft and housing.

Reading the 200 series code helps you order the correct insert. The first letters point to the insert family, while the three-digit number gives the bore size in sixteenths of an inch. For instance, UBG2M17NL*■ fits a 1.1/16" shaft, UBG2M20NL*■ a 1.1/4" shaft, UBG2M25NL*Δ■ a 1.9/16" shaft, and UBG2M50NL*Δ■ a 3.1/8" shaft. The suffixes after the size cover sealing, locking or material options, so check them before ordering a replacement.

These inserts show up in belt and roller conveyors, bucket elevators, mixers, dryers, centrifugal fans and process equipment in food, chemical and aggregate plants. They also appear in agricultural machinery and packaging lines, where a split housing lets you remove the shaft without taking the whole assembly apart. They are a practical choice when you want an economical support that is easy to replace and handles moderate contamination.

Selection starts with the shaft diameter and the housing where the insert will sit: the insert must match the housing outer diameter and width. Check the sealing type for the environment, using labyrinth or contact seals for dust and moisture, and simple seals for clean service. When mounting, make sure the shaft is clean and free of burrs, place the insert without striking the outer ring, and tighten the set screws or eccentric locking collar as the design requires. Lubricate with the specified grease and check housing alignment to avoid lateral loads.

Different brands offer 200 series insert bearings with standardized dimensions, so interchangeability usually comes down to comparing shaft diameter, outer diameter, width and locking type. The series number alone is not enough: cross-reference the complete designation, including sealing suffixes and housing letters. An equivalent insert from another manufacturer can work if those dimensions and the locking system match.

If you need a LINK-BELT 200 series insert, send the complete part number from the housing or the equipment nameplate. Our team will quote it and, when needed, point you to a compatible alternative with the same dimensions.
