Product Overview: SUC 206 Stainless Steel Insert Bearing
The SUC 206 is a high-performance stainless steel insert bearing, a vital component in our UC 200 Series of Insert Ball Bearings. With key dimensions of a 30mm bore diameter, 62mm outer diameter, and 38.1mm width, this bearing is engineered for exceptional durability in demanding conditions. Its stainless steel construction provides superior resistance to corrosion and rust, making it the ideal choice for applications in washdown, humid, or chemically aggressive environments. The SUC 206 features a spherical outer surface that allows it to accommodate initial static misalignment when mounted in a compatible bearing housing, such as a pillow block or flange unit. A set screw locking mechanism ensures a secure and straightforward fit onto the shaft.
Key Features of the SUC 206 Bearing
- Stainless Steel Construction: Offers excellent protection against corrosion, making it suitable for food processing, pharmaceutical, and marine applications.
- Set Screw Locking: Two set screws on the extended inner ring provide a simple, reliable method for securing the bearing to the shaft.
- Spherical Outer Ring: Designed to fit into various housing types and compensate for initial static misalignment, simplifying installation.
- Pre-Lubricated and Sealed: Arrives factory-lubricated with food-grade grease and is equipped with effective seals to prevent contamination and retain lubricant.
- High-Quality Manufacturing: Produced to precise industry standards to ensure dimensional accuracy and reliable performance.
- Interchangeable Design: Standardized dimensions allow for direct replacement of other equivalent insert bearings.
Common Applications
- Food and Beverage Industry: Used in conveyors, mixers, bottling equipment, and processing lines where hygiene and washdowns are frequent.
- Pharmaceutical Equipment: Ideal for machinery requiring sterile and corrosion-resistant components.
- Chemical Processing Plants: Withstands exposure to various chemicals and harsh substances.
- Agricultural Machinery: Provides reliable performance in equipment exposed to moisture, dirt, and fertilizers.
- Packaging Machinery: Ensures smooth and consistent operation in automated packaging systems.
- Marine Environments: Suitable for applications exposed to saltwater spray and high humidity.
- Textile Machinery: Resists corrosion in the often humid conditions of textile manufacturing facilities.
