LINK-BELT 23100 series flange bearings are 4-bolt mounted units that combine an insert bearing with a flange housing, ready to be fastened directly onto a flat surface. They are used to support shafts in equipment where mounting must be compact and rigid, such as conveyors, mixers and process machines. MR Accesorios Industriales carries this line as an official brand and advises you on choosing the unit according to the shaft and the application.

The 23100 series designation is read in blocks: the prefix PLB identifies the 4-bolt flange, the base number 23100 corresponds to the insert bearing series, and the K suffixes and the figures that follow indicate the shaft diameter and the locking type. For example, PLB23144K8 combines the 23100 series with an 8-inch shaft, while PLB23148K81516 adds the 15/16 locking variant. Longer codes, such as PLB23152K9716 or PLB23160K101516, incorporate shaft dimensions in fractions of an inch. To request a quote, send us the full code shown on the nameplate or on the drawing.

These flange bearings are selected in food and beverage, cement, mining, aggregate processing and material handling plants, where belt conveyors and bucket elevators require robust flange units. They also appear in mixers, rotary dryers and continuous process equipment. In Argentina, the 23100 series is common in installations that already use LINK-BELT housings and need to replace a unit without modifying the existing base. MR Accesorios Industriales supports maintenance and purchasing teams with code identification and the compatible alternative.

To select the correct unit, take into account the shaft diameter, the locking type (set screw, eccentric or adapter) and the sealing required for the environment: dust, water or frequent washdown. The 4-bolt flange must be mounted on a flat, rigid surface; check alignment with the shaft and tighten the bolts in a cross pattern to prevent distortion. Lubrication is defined by the insert type and the operating temperature; in applications with vibration, check the clearance and the tightness of the set screws. If the equipment operates with axial load, ask us about the appropriate bearing configuration.

As for equivalents, 4-bolt flange bearings from different brands can be interchanged if the bolt hole spacing, shaft diameter and locking type match. It is not enough for the series number to be similar: the housing drawing and the center height must be compared. If the original code is not available, we indicate the compatible alternative from our catalogue or manufacture it to order. Send us the code or the model you need on WhatsApp and we will quote it promptly.

MR Accesorios Industriales has more than 80 years in the Argentine industrial market and carries the LINK-BELT line as an official brand. If you are looking for a 23100 series flange bearing, write to us on WhatsApp with the full code or the shaft and flange dimensions. We will quote the unit and, if needed, advise you so that the mounting is aligned and lubricated correctly from day one.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I identify the correct code for a LINK-BELT 23100 series flange bearing?
The code combines the PLB prefix, the 23100 series number and suffixes that indicate the shaft diameter and the locking type. Compare the code stamped on the housing or on the drawing with the examples in the series. If you have doubts, send us a photo or the code on WhatsApp and we will help you confirm it.
What is the difference between the K8, K81516 and K9716 suffixes?
The suffixes indicate the shaft diameter and the insert locking type. K8 corresponds to an 8-inch shaft; K81516 and K9716 combine inch dimensions with fractions. To choose correctly, check the actual shaft diameter and the locking system your machine accepts.
Can I replace a bearing housing from another brand with a LINK-BELT 23100 series one?
Yes, if the flange bolt hole spacing, shaft diameter and locking type match. Do not rely only on the series number: compare the mounting drawing and the center height. Send us the dimensions and we will indicate the compatible equivalent.
