Ritz 4-Bolt Flange Bearing 1″ Bore Stainless Steel SUCSF205-16

Description

Product Overview

The Ritz Industrial 4‑bolt flange bearing is engineered for demanding applications where reliability and hygiene are paramount. Constructed from 304 stainless steel, the housing resists corrosion and meets stringent sanitary standards. The bearing features a pre‑mounted 440C stainless steel insert that is fully sealed with a double‑lip Buna‑N seal, protecting the internal components from contaminants and moisture. Its 1″ bore accommodates a wide range of shaft sizes, and the design incorporates a set‑screw type 304 stainless steel grease zerk for easy lubrication. The inclusion of food‑grade FM222 balls ensures smooth operation even in environments that require strict cleanliness, such as food processing and pharmaceutical manufacturing.
