Flanged bearings are designed as a cylindrical body and a flange on one end, and made to mount bearings with precision. Flanged bearings are robust, dirt-resistant, waterproof and suitable for mounting into rotating or linear devices.
Flange bearings consist of an outer ring, aiding in the mounting and positioning of the bearing. The flange ensures that the bearing is prevented from moving in axial directions when exposed to vibration or axial loads. This flange also helps the bearing stay in place under axial loads and thermal expansion.
