The LINK-BELT PLB flange housing is a 4-bolt flange mounted bearing, designed to secure rotating shafts to flat structures. It is used when the shaft must be perpendicular to the mounting surface and a compact, self-aligning and sealed unit is sought. MR Accesorios Industriales sells this line, with alternatives for different shaft sizes.

The PLB designation identifies the family of 4-bolt flange housings. The number that follows, as in PLB23152 or PLB23180, refers to the series and the shaft size: the first digits indicate the series and the last ones, the dimensional variant. Thus, a PLB23152 and a PLB23180 share the configuration but change the housing diameter. To choose, send the complete code or the shaft size you need.

These housings appear in conveyors, elevators, mixers, pumps, fans and process lines. In food, chemical and aggregate plants they are chosen for the ease of mounting on sheet metal or structure and for the sealing that tolerates dusty or humid environments. They are also used in material handling equipment and in machines where the shaft must be square with the flange.

To select, check the shaft diameter, the expected radial and axial load, and the sealing type according to the environment. Mounting requires a flat, clean surface, with the four bolts tightened in a cross pattern and without forcing the flange. Lubrication must be renewed according to the duty cycle, and it is advisable to check shaft alignment to avoid stress on the bearing. If there is vibration or high temperature, check the clearance and the condition of the seals.

4-bolt flange housings are available from different brands under their own nomenclatures. Interchangeability depends on the flange dimensions, shaft diameter and locking type, not only on the code. Therefore, when comparing with another brand, it is advisable to cross-check the mounting drawing and load capacity. MR will indicate the compatible alternative.
