The LINK-BELT CL series flange Y-bearing unit with insert bearing is a 3-bolt flange mounted bearing designed to secure rotating shafts to metal structures or masonry. The 3-bolt flange provides firm fastening and distributes the load across the mounting plane, while the self-aligning insert accommodates minor misalignment. It is used in conveying, ventilation, washing and process equipment where the shaft must be supported with simple alignment and accessible maintenance.

The CL series designation is read in blocks: the initial letter P indicates a flange housing; the number that follows identifies the number of mounting bolts; then CL appears, which distinguishes this family of Y-bearing units; and the three-digit number indicates the insert size, which in turn corresponds to the shaft diameter. The final letter N closes the reference and identifies the construction variant of the housing. Thus, the codes share the flange format and vary in the size of the insert bearing.

These units are found in belt and chain conveyors, extractor fans and blowers, industrial laundry machines, mixers, bucket elevators and process lines in food, chemical and aggregate processing plants. In Argentina they are common in equipment maintenance where the shaft is supported on a plate or frame and a compact unit is sought that withstands radial load and moderate thrust. MR Accesorios Industriales sells this LINK-BELT line for replacement and new projects.

To choose correctly, start with the shaft diameter you need and then verify the flange bolt pattern: the number of bolts and the center distance must match the structure where you will mount it. Check the insert sealing according to the environment: dust, water or washdown require additional protection. When mounting, seat the flange on a flat surface, tighten the bolts in a cross pattern and verify that the shaft turns without effort. Lubrication of the insert and careful alignment extend the life of the assembly.

As for equivalents, flange Y-bearing units are interchanged between manufacturers by shaft number and flange configuration, but not by a direct cross-reference: each brand uses its own nomenclature. If you need to replace an existing unit, send us the code stamped on the part or the shaft and bolt pattern dimensions, and we will tell you the compatible alternative within the line we sell.

If you have the housing part number at hand, send it by WhatsApp to MR Accesorios Industriales and we will send you a quote shortly. We can also help if you are building new equipment and need to define which flange and insert size is right for your shaft. With the model or main dimensions, we will guide you so you order the correct part and avoid unnecessary equipment downtime.
