IPTCI BEARINGS
Frequently asked questions
Common questions about IPTCI BEARINGS from 3G Electric.
What lubricants are used in IPTCI BEARINGS food-grade mounted units?
IPTCI BEARINGS food-grade mounted units, such as the SUCSF206-20 flange-mount bearing, are lubricated with Mobil FM222, a synthetic food-grade grease. Washdown models like the SUCSFB207-21 IP69K use H-1 grease, which is suitable for incidental food contact. These lubricants are selected to meet NSF registration requirements for use in food processing environments.
Are IPTCI BEARINGS flange-mount bearings available with IP69K washdown ratings?
Yes, IPTCI BEARINGS offers flange-mount bearings with IP69K ratings, such as the 3-bolt flange bearing SKU 868XZ0 (MPN SUCSFB207-21 IP69K). These units feature stainless steel housings, set screw locking, and H-1 grease, enabling them to withstand high-pressure, high-temperature washdown procedures common in food and beverage facilities.
What locking mechanisms do IPTCI BEARINGS mounted units use?
IPTCI BEARINGS mounted units primarily use set screw locking for shaft retention, as seen in pillow block models like HUCP209-28 and flange-mount units like SUCSF206-20. Some spherical insert bearings, such as the SNA210-31, use eccentric lock mechanisms. Both methods provide secure mounting without requiring additional hardware.
Can IPTCI BEARINGS take-up units be used in conveyor systems?
Yes, IPTCI BEARINGS take-up units like the UCT205-14 are designed for conveyor applications where belt tension adjustment is needed. These units have steel radial ball inserts, fixed expansion types, and inch-system bores, making them suitable for general-purpose material handling equipment.
What bore sizes are available for IPTCI BEARINGS pillow block bearings?
IPTCI BEARINGS pillow block bearings are available in both inch and metric bore sizes. Examples include a 1 3/4 in bore (HUCP209-28) and a 20 mm bore (SUCSP204-20). The range covers common shaft diameters used in industrial machinery, with mounting bolt sizes from 3/8 in to 1/2 in.
