3-bolt bracket flanged ball bearing units typically consist of an insert bearing that is made from stainless steel. This bearing is housed in a reinforced polypropylene enclosure, making it suitable for use in wet conditions. By using polypropylene housing, SKF ensures that this bearing performs at high levels in wet conditions, specifically within food and beverage applications.

• Chemically resistant and corrosion resistant to detergents and contaminants to ensure long-lasting use.
• Insert bearings are lubricated with food-grade grease and the lubrication is made to last ensuring a relubrication-free solution.
• Strong and lightweight for efficient and effective use in rotating equipment.
• Will remain stable and hold their expected properties therefore can be used in repeated operational and washdown cycles.
• Hygienic design features make them perfectly suited for food and beverage applications.

This dedicated SKF Food Line Range has specifically been designed for applications within the food and beverage industry, wet conditions and for supporting heaving loads.

SKF 3-bolt bracket flanged ball bearing units use both a back seal and gutter seals to provide high sealing properties. SKF Food Line Range bearings use this combination of seals and inner rings in the bearing unit to lock the device to easily mount the unit.
