Cooper square flange housings

Cooper square flanged housings provide a simple means of mounting split roller bearings against a face or bulkhead perpendicular to the shaft. They can be used for both the locating (designation suffix GR) and non-locating (designation suffix EX) bearing positions. Alternative designs, e.g. an axially compact housing design with a flat flange, are available on request. 

Permissible misalignment

Under constant or slowly changing alignment conditions, there is a permissible misalignment up to 2,5 ° without compromising sealing capability.

Features of the Cooper square flange housing

Using the same split to the shaft technology that’s synonymous with Cooper bearings, the square flange unit can be dismantled without the need to remove adjacent machinery. Simply remove the top half of the flange and cartridge to inspect the roller bearing and replace if necessary.

 

Cooper square flange housings FAQs

What are the advantages of using Cooper Square Flange Housings?

  • Ease of Maintenance: Cooper split roller bearings allow for easy replacement or inspection of the bearing without having to dismantle the shaft, reducing downtime.
  • Versatile Mounting: The square flange design provides secure, flat surface mounting, suitable for tight spaces or wall-mounted applications.
  • Durability: Cooper housings are made from strong materials like cast iron, providing excellent durability and support in heavy-duty applications.

What industries commonly use Cooper Square Flange Housings?

Cooper square flange housings are widely used in industries such as:

  • Mining
  • Marine
  • Steel manufacturing
  • Power generation
  • Cement plants
  • Pulp and paper processing

What bearing types are compatible with Cooper Square Flange Housings?

Cooper square flange housings are primarily used with split roller bearings, which are designed to be installed around a shaft in two halves. This makes them ideal for applications where it is difficult to access the shaft ends.

What is the difference between a square flange housing and a pillow block housing?

While both are used to support bearings, the main difference is the mounting style. Square flange housings are designed to be mounted flush against flat surfaces, typically with four bolts. Pillow block housings, on the other hand, are mounted on a base, which sits on a flat surface and typically uses two bolts.
