What is a Sealmaster flange bearing?
A flange at one end of a cylindrical body is what makes a Sealmaster flange bearing. Radial loads can be supported along with axial loads thanks to the thrust surface provided by the flange. Not only that, but a Sealmaster flange bearing can also help align and mount a bearing during its installation.
The goal of doing so is to lock a bearing with the flange in place to prevent the bearing from axially moving. If your application experiences a large number of vibrations, for example in automobiles, a Sealmaster flange bearing can ensure the bearing's positioning is accurate.
Flange Bearings can be created from:
- Metal-Polymer
- Fiber Reinforced Composite
- Thermoset Plastic Material
