UCFL205 Flanged Bearing Unit Cast Iron Housing Pillow Block Bearings

UCFL205 Flanged Bearing Unit – Compact, Reliable Shaft Support for Light to Medium Duty

The UCFL205 belongs to the widely used UCFL series of mounted bearings. It is designed for applications where space is limited and a full four-bolt flange is too bulky, yet a standard pillow block (UCP) cannot be mounted due to the machine’s geometry. Its two-bolt oval footprint and self-aligning spherical fit make it the go-to choice for light-duty conveyors, agricultural implements, HVAC fans, food processing machinery, and countless other industrial systems.

Características clave:

• Save Space
  The UCFL205 uses a two-bolt rhombus flange, its 130 mm total length and 68 mm height fit into narrow machine frames, under belt guards, or into retrofits where larger bearing housings simply cannot go. El 16 mm bolt holes accept standard M14 or 5/8″ bolts, providing secure attachment while keeping the overall footprint minimal.

• Self-Aligning
  The UCFL205’s self-alignment feature means you do not need to grind mounting surfaces to sub-millimetre accuracy. You simply bolt the unit down, slide the shaft through, and the bearing self-centres, eliminating binding and premature wear.

• Extend Service Life
  Although the UCFL205 is factory-greased for life under normal conditions, demanding environments (heavy dust, moisture, 24/7 operación) can deplete the grease faster. A 45° angled grease nipple is cast into the housing and connected to a lubrication groove that feeds directly into the bearing cavity. Attaching a standard grease gun allows you to refresh the grease without disassembling the unit – a quick, clean operation that can double or triple the working life of the bearing.
• High Load Capacity in a Small Package
  The UCFL205 is no lightweight, It comfortably supports the radial loads generated by belt drives, light conveyor rollers, fan impellers, and agricultural implement shafts. The cast iron housing and the deep groove ball bearing insert work together to provide smooth, low friction rotation even under moderate shock loads.
• Wide Temperature and Speed Range
  The UCFL205 operates reliably from -40°C to +120°C, covering everything from cold?storage conveyors to high-temperature drying ovens. Its maximum speed of 5,900 RPM makes it suitable for fan shafts, blower drives, and other rotating equipment that runs at moderate to high speeds. For higher speeds, oil lubrication and special cage variants can be supplied on request.
