The 3-bolt flange bearing unit with SCEZ SHCR series insert bearing is an assembled unit that combines a cast iron housing with an insert ball bearing, ready to mount on a flat surface. It is used to support transmission shafts in equipment where rigid fixing and simple alignment are required, with the advantage that the insert self-aligns inside the housing and absorbs small shaft deviations.

The series designation is read in blocks: the initial letters identify the housing type and its mounting configuration, the SCEZ block corresponds to the family of flange housings with insert bearing, and the SHCR suffix indicates the sealing and locking variant of the insert. The number in the middle, as in LFT-SCEZ-104S-SHCR, indicates the insert size and, with it, the shaft diameter the unit accepts. Therefore, when ordering a replacement it is advisable to provide the full part number and not just the number, because the suffixes change the sealing and the locking method.

These housings are seen in belt conveyors, screens, mixers, extractors and process lines in food, chemical and aggregate plants. In Argentina they are common in milling equipment, bucket elevators and packaging machines, where the shaft rotates at moderate speeds and the 3-bolt flange allows the housing to be fixed to a frame or structural sheet metal with a simple bolt pattern. They also appear in small and medium-sized fans and centrifugal pumps.

To choose well, you must look at the shaft diameter, the type of load and the environmental conditions. In dusty or wet areas, the insert seal defines service life: a variant with a contact lip seal is advisable and, if there is frequent washdown, with additional protection. Mounting requires a flat, clean surface, bolts tightened in a cross pattern and checking that the insert remains free to self-align. Lubrication is done through the housing grease fitting with the grease indicated for the working temperature, without overfilling.

Regarding interchangeability, flange housings with inserts are available from several brands and shaft sizes usually match between equivalent lines, but the housing height, the distance between holes and the locking type may vary. Before replacing with another brand, compare the full part number, the hole layout and the insert fixing system. If space is tight, it is sometimes advisable to keep the same series to avoid modifying the frame.
