Rexnord FC-TE series piloted flange housings are designed to hold a mounted bearing and secure it to a wall or vertical surface. The flange centers the bearing in the housing, while bolts through the perimeter holes fasten the unit. These housings suit applications where the shaft runs perpendicular to the mounting face, offering straightforward alignment and easy maintenance access. MR Industrial Accessories supplies this line to customers across the United States and Latin America.

The FC-TE code breaks down into two parts: FC denotes the four-bolt piloted flange family, and TE specifies the mounting and sealing variant. The number in the middle indicates the size. For instance, FC-207-TE and FC-211-TE belong to the same series but differ in shaft diameter and hole spacing. Always provide the full code as it appears on the drawing or machine tag to ensure the correct unit is ordered.

Typical applications include belt and screw conveyors, bucket elevators, mixers, blowers, and process lines in food, chemical, and aggregate plants. The piloted flange makes mounting on folded sheet metal or profile structures simpler, and the housed bearing accommodates minor misalignments common in welded frames.

When selecting a unit, begin with the shaft diameter and the radial and axial loads of the equipment. Consider the sealing type based on the environment: dusty, wet, or washdown conditions call for tighter seals. During installation, set the flange flat, tighten bolts in a cross pattern, and verify the shaft turns freely. Lubricate through the grease fitting using a grease compatible with the original; do not mix different bases. Check alignment before startup.

Piloted flange units are offered by various brands with their own part numbers. Equivalence goes beyond shaft diameter: compare hole spacing, centering diameter, overall height, and bearing locking method. For accurate cross-referencing, request a quote with the complete code and, if possible, a dimensioned sketch. MR Industrial Accessories can suggest a compatible alternative when the original brand is not what you currently use.

To replace an FC-TE housing, send the code via WhatsApp or email to MR Industrial Accessories along with the shaft diameter and a photo of the mounting. Our team will quote the unit and recommend the best option for your equipment. We can also advise on sealing and lubrication to help the replacement perform reliably.
