Flanged bearings are an improved version of standard rolling bearings (such as deep groove ball bearings and tapered roller bearings) with a flanged housing. Their key feature is that they are directly fixed to the equipment surface via mounting holes in the flange, eliminating the need for an additional bearing housing while simultaneously supporting radial loads and axial positioning. Common types include:
1. UCF Series: Vertical flanged bearings with a square flange, suitable for mounting on vertical shafts, such as conveyor rollers;
2. UFL Series: Round flanges, suitable for mounting on horizontal shafts, commonly found in motor drive systems;
3. Sealed Type: Features a built-in rubber seal (such as the 2RS) for dust and water resistance, and is used in food processing equipment.
