The Link-Belt 3-bolt flange bearing is a mounted bearing ready to be fixed onto a flat surface with three bolts. It is used to guide shafts in equipment where the mounting must be firm and aligned, such as conveyor belts, elevators, mixers and process machines. MR Accesorios Industriales supplies this Link-Belt line in Buenos Aires, Argentina, and advises you to choose the correct part number according to the shaft and type of load.
The designation of these bearings is read in blocks: FC indicates the three-bolt flange, the number that follows (3) defines the housing type, the letter U corresponds to the insertable bearing unit and the three-digit number (214, 215, 216…) is the size of the 200 series. The final letter N indicates a construction variant of the assembly. Thus, an FC3U214N and an FC3U216N share the format but change size; the complete part number is the data we request for a quote.
These bearings are seen in food and beverage plants, cement plants, grain facilities, water treatment plants and packaging lines. In Argentina they are common in belt conveyors, bucket elevators, agitators and dryers, where the three-bolt flange allows mounting on sheet metal or structure without machining. The 200 series is the medium-duty section and covers a wide range of shaft diameters, which is why it is one of the most requested in maintenance.
To select correctly, take into account the shaft diameter, the type of load (radial, axial or combined) and the environmental conditions. If there is dust, water or frequent washdowns, a more closed seal is recommended; if the equipment rotates fast, check the lubrication and internal clearance. During mounting, rest the flange on a clean, flat surface, tighten the three bolts evenly and align the shaft before starting up to avoid stresses on the insert.
Mounted bearings are interchanged between brands by series number and dimensions: a 200 series part number from another company can replace a Link-Belt one if the shaft diameter, hole spacing and fixing type match. That equivalence is confirmed with the equipment's technical data sheet. If you cannot find the exact reference, write to us with the part number or model shown on the machine and we will indicate the compatible alternative.

Frequently Asked Questions
- How do I know which Link-Belt flange bearing part number I need?
- Measure the shaft diameter and the distance between the flange holes. With that data and the part number shown on the equipment, we will indicate the corresponding 200 series reference. If you cannot see the part number, send us a photo by WhatsApp and we will identify it.
- What does the N at the end of the part number FC3U214N mean?
- The N identifies a construction variant within the same family of bearings. It does not change the shaft diameter or the mounting, but it does change details of the housing or seal. To confirm the equivalence with the part you have, send us the complete part number.
- Can I replace a bearing from another brand with a Link-Belt one?
- Yes, if the shaft diameter, hole spacing and fixing type match. The 200 series is a very widespread standard and dimensions correspond between manufacturers. Write to us with the part number of the original part and we will quote the replacement.
