The "S" in SUCT201 typically indicates that the bearing components are made of stainless steel (such as stainless bearing steel AISI 440), giving it excellent corrosion and rust resistance. This makes it suitable for damp environments, those with corrosive media, or applications requiring frequent cleaning
"UCT" stands for a set screw type spherical outer ball bearing, and the "T" denotes the use of a T-slider base. This base has protruding "ears" on both sides with through grooves, allowing it to be inserted into T-slots on equipment platforms. It can be easily adjusted and locked in position using bolts, making it particularly suited for applications requiring linear movement or precise positioning
Furthermore, this bearing is usually equipped with a double-sided sealing structure that effectively prevents the intrusion of contaminants. It comes pre-lubricated from the factory, enabling maintenance-free operation
. Its self-aligning capability can compensate for misalignment caused by shaft deflection or installation errors.Thanks to its corrosion resistance and ease of adjustment during installation, the SUCT201 bearing is commonly used in the following industries:
Food and Beverage Processing Equipment: Such as filling lines and conveyor belts, meeting strict hygiene requirements
.Pharmaceutical and Chemical Machinery: Suitable for environments with chemical solvents or those requiring cleanliness
Packaging and Logistics Equipment: Used in sorting machines, conveyors, and other areas requiring sliding adjustment
Other humid or corrosive industrial environments
.Load Capacity: This type of bearing is primarily designed to withstand radial loads and should not be subjected to significant pure axial loads
.Installation: Ensure the T-slider base fits well against the mounting surface and tighten them to the specified torque. The bearing inner ring is fixed to the shaft via set screws. During installation, a flat spot must be ground on the shaft for the set screws to tighten against, preventing slippage
