Need an easy way to secure your bearing to a housing? Bring it in line with this locating ring from SKF. Designed for a plummer block housing-bearing combination, this unit tightens the insert bearing in a precise position. As this restricts the bearing's axial movement, it helps reduce the risk of shaft misalignment. The ring also stabilises the bearing, ensuring the load is evenly distributed to prevent stress build-up. External dimensions of 64mm ID and 72mm OD make it suitable for a medium-sized shaft.
Features & Benefits
• Slim width of 5.5mm to fit into housings where space is tight • Light weight of 23g for minimal strain on your assembly • Simple structure means installation is quick and tool-free
Applications
• Oil and gas industry • Industrial pumps • Railways • Wind turbines
How do I install this ring?
To install two rings, simply place each one on either side of the bearing. If you're installing a single ring, you should fit it on the same side as the lock nut.
Where should I use a combined housing-bearing combination?
A combined housing-bearing component is ideal for applications where the shaft needs to be fixed in place while it's rotating rapidly.
