Product Overview: The UC 214 Insert Ball Bearing
The UC 214 bearing is a high-quality Insert Ball Bearing, also commonly referred to as a Y-bearing or mounted bearing insert. As a crucial component within our extensive UC 200 Series, this bearing features a spherical outer ring that allows it to be fitted into various bearing housings, such as Pillow Block, Flange, or Cartridge Units. With a precise bore diameter of 70mm, an outer diameter of 125mm, and an overall thickness of 65.1mm, the UC 214 is engineered for robust performance and ease of installation in a wide array of industrial applications.
Designed to accommodate moderate initial misalignment and provide reliable shaft support, the UC 214 insert bearing typically features a wider inner ring for enhanced stability and is equipped with set screws or an eccentric locking collar for secure attachment to the shaft. Our UC 214 bearings are manufactured to industry-standard specifications, ensuring durability and consistent operation in demanding environments. This makes them an ideal choice for machinery requiring straightforward installation, dependable performance, and reduced maintenance.
