Product Overview: The UC 212 Insert Ball Bearing
The UC 212 bearing is a high-performance insert ball bearing, designed for robust industrial applications. As a key component of our UC 200 Series and overall UC Series, this bearing features a spherical outer ring that allows for self-alignment within a suitable bearing housing, compensating for initial misalignment. With a bore diameter of 60mm, an outer diameter of 110mm, and a total width of 65.1mm, the UC 212 is engineered for easy mounting onto a shaft using two set screws, providing a secure and reliable fit.
Our UC 212 bearings are pre-lubricated and equipped with effective seals, ensuring long-term, maintenance-free operation in various demanding environments. They are widely utilized in applications requiring dependable rotational support where robust housing is employed, making them ideal for a range of industrial machinery. As a trusted supplier of industrial bearings, we ensure our UC 212 bearings meet stringent quality standards for consistent performance and durability.
