A piloted flange bearing unit from the SEALMASTER MFC-T series pairs an insert bearing with a circular flange housing that includes a machined pilot for centering. It supports rotating shafts where the mounting surface is flat and perpendicular to the shaft, using two or four bolt holes. MR Industrial Accessories LLC supplies this unit for maintenance and replacement in industrial machinery across the United States and several Latin American countries.

The MFC-T code breaks down into three parts: the letters indicate the piloted flange housing family, the T denotes the series variant, and the number in between is the unit size, not a shaft diameter. That is why MFC-16T, MFC-19T, MFC-20T, MFC-23T, MFC-24T, MFC-27T, MFC-28T and MFC-31T are all the same housing type in different sizes. To select the right one, provide the full part number plus the shaft and pilot dimensions.

Typical applications include belt and chain conveyors, elevators, mixers, blowers, centrifugal pumps, and process lines in food, chemical, cement, and aggregate plants. The flange design allows mounting on sheet metal or cast iron where bolts are accessible from only one side.

When choosing, consider the shaft diameter and tolerance, the pilot diameter, the number of flange holes, and the sealing needed for the environment—dust, water, or washdown. The insert bearing often comes with set screws or an eccentric collar; follow the recommended tightening torque and ensure the flange sits flat without forcing, to maintain alignment and avoid preload.

Flange units from different brands can often be interchanged by comparing critical dimensions: shaft diameter, pilot diameter, hole spacing, and overall height. The SEALMASTER MFC-T series has equivalents in other lines, but a matching part number alone is not enough.
