A SEALMASTER FBMH flange bracket is a mounted bearing unit built around a flange housing, used to support and locate a rotating shaft on a flat surface such as a wall, frame or chassis. Its compact, self-aligning construction suits equipment where the drive has to come off a vertical or horizontal face. MR Industrial Accessories LLC supplies this line and can point you to the right shaft size and sealing setup for your application.

Reading the code is the fastest way to order. FBMH names the flange bracket family with insert bearing, and the digits after the hyphen give the shaft size the insert fits. That is why FBMH-16, FBMH-19, FBMH-20, FBMH-23 and FBMH-31 all sit in the same family yet fit different shafts. Give us either the full part number or the shaft diameter you are working with.

You will find these units on conveyor lines, fans, mixers, grain elevators and process equipment in food, chemical and metallurgical plants. Four bolts through the flange hold them to a chassis, frame or wall, which keeps mounting and changeouts simple. They are also a practical answer on older machines whose original bracket is no longer listed and a matching replacement has to be found.

Selection comes down to three things: shaft diameter, how the unit is mounted, and where it runs. The insert seal sets how well the bearing handles dust, water or chips, so a dirty environment calls for extra protection. Most inserts carry permanent lubrication, though relubricating on a schedule helps service life. Line up the flange with the shaft properly and you avoid unnecessary loads and noise.

Flange brackets with insert bearings come from several makers, each with its own nomenclature. Whether one swaps for another depends on flange dimensions, shaft diameter and how the insert mounts. Before quoting, we ask for the original part number or the key dimensions so we can name a compatible option. Series are not all interchangeable, so checking dimensions matters.

For a SEALMASTER FBMH series flange bracket, message us on WhatsApp with the part number or shaft size. We reply promptly, and if you need a variant that is not listed, we take it up with the manufacturer. MR Industrial Accessories LLC can also help you settle on the right configuration for your equipment.
