EC end covers close off the ends of split bearing housings. Once in place they hold lubricant where it belongs, block dust, water and stray particles from reaching the bearing, and complete the sealing of the assembly. MR Industrial Accessories LLC supplies this Timken line to maintenance and purchasing teams throughout the United States and in several Latin American countries.

The EC code tells you which housing a cover belongs to. A reference like EC216, EC217 or EC218 ends in digits that point to a specific housing size, while a hyphenated code such as EC505, EC506-605 or EC508-607 means one cover serves more than one housing size. Before ordering, locate the code stamped on the housing or take its dimensions.

Typical applications are split-housing equipment: belt conveyors, bucket elevators, mills, mixers, centrifugal pumps and industrial fans. Plants handling food, cement, mining, paper and aggregates rely on these covers where dust and moisture are constant, and they also suit low- and medium-speed shafts running in SNT or comparable housings.

Selection comes down to two checks: the code has to correspond to the housing, and the shaft diameter has to pass through cleanly. Fit the cover with the housing open, seat the sealing lip or groove without distortion, and line up cover, housing and shaft so nothing rubs or leaks. Use lubricant that suits the cover material, and inspect the seal at each maintenance stop.

Timken EC covers can replace equivalent parts from other manufacturers when the split housing follows the same standard. What decides interchangeability is the housing dimensions and the fastening method, not the code alone. On a housing from another brand, measure the cover and speak with a specialist first. Our team can point you to the compatible option.

Send the complete EC code, or a photo of the part, by WhatsApp or email and we will quote it. We can also suggest equivalents and help you confirm the right choice for your equipment. Split plummer block housings, roller chains and sheaves are manufactured by MR.
