The VFCS housing is a piloted flange mounted bearing unit: the unit combines an insert with an extended inner ring and a flange housing fastened with bolts, so the shaft is supported and centered on the mounting plane. It is used when a shaft needs to be supported on one face of the structure and transmit the radial load to the frame, with the possibility of aligning and securing the insert on the shaft during assembly.

The series designation is read in blocks: the letters VFCS identify the family of piloted flange housing with insert bearing, and the number that follows indicates the size of the unit within the series. That is why the VFCS 200 series and the VFCS 300 series coexist: they are two size scales of the same type of housing. Examples such as VFCS-218, VFCS-220 or VFCS-226 show how the final number changes according to the size; send us the complete part number and we'll quote it.

In Argentine industry these housings appear in belt and chain conveyors, bucket elevators, mixers, mills, screens and process equipment where the shaft is supported on a side flange. They are also seen in packaging lines, food plants, storage yards and maintenance workshops that replace units worn by continuous use and exposure to dust or moisture.

To choose well, first look at the shaft diameter and the insert locking type, and then the sealing: in dusty or wet environments, a seal that protects the raceway is advisable. During mounting, rest the flange on a clean, flat surface, tighten the bolts in a cross pattern and check shaft alignment before tightening the insert. Lubricate according to the duty cycle and check axial and radial play if the equipment vibrates.

Between brands, interchangeability is resolved by comparing the flange geometry, shaft diameter, locking type and sealing, not just the commercial part number. The same size can vary in the distance between holes or in the pilot height, so it is advisable to compare the drawing of the original unit. At MR Accesorios Industriales we indicate the compatible alternative when the exact part number does not match.

If the housing works on critical equipment, send us by WhatsApp the part number VFCS-218, VFCS-223 or the one on the nameplate, along with the shaft diameter and a photo of the mounting. With that data we'll quote the unit and, if necessary, indicate the compatible alternative from the same series.
