Flanges
Flanges provide
a simple means of mounting Cooper split roller bearings against
a vertical or horizontal face. These housings embody standard swivel
cartridges which may be assembled with expansion (EX) or fixed (GR)
bearings.
Where shafts
terminate at the bearings, cartridge ends may be fitted with blanking
plates or in the case of expansion bearings to 90mm, blanking plates
with thrust bearings for one way positioning.
The rear face
of the flange is recessed for use with a spigot if required. Tolerance
f8 on spigot to fit recess N.
The top halves
of both flange and cartridge can be lifted for inspection of rolling
surfaces.
Standard cast
iron flanges normally have drilled bolt holes with outer surface
as cast. Fitting flat washers under the bolt heads is recommended.
Cast steel flanges normally have drilled holes and are spot faced.
Flanges over
12"/300mm available on request.
For vertical
shafts, bearings and vertical shaft may require modified construction,
special seals and lubrication.
Maximum load
on C.I. flanges 0.26 Cor or 0.25 Ca. Higher loads at slow speeds
and shock conditions require steel or nodular iron flanges and high
tensile bolts. The support plate must be adequate. Please consult
our technical department.
