SUE200 Series Stainless Concentric Lock Bearings

SUE200 Series Stainless Concentric Lock Bearings

Our SUE200 Series Stainless Concentric Lock Bearings are designed for demanding applications where corrosion resistance, reliable shaft retention, and long service life are essential. Manufactured from stainless steel and equipped with a concentric locking collar, these mounted insert bearings provide secure, even locking around the shaft while minimizing shaft damage and reducing vibration.

The SUE200 Series is commonly used in food processing equipment, beverage production, pharmaceutical machinery, agricultural equipment, marine environments, packaging systems, and other applications exposed to moisture, washdowns, chemicals, or corrosive conditions. The stainless steel construction helps resist rust and contamination, making these bearings an excellent choice for environments where traditional bearing materials may fail prematurely.

Unlike set screw bearings, concentric lock bearings use a precision locking collar that evenly grips the shaft around its circumference. This design helps improve shaft concentricity, reduce fretting, and provide smoother operation in applications with frequent starts, stops, or vibration.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a SUE200 Series bearing?
A SUE200 Series bearing is a stainless steel insert bearing that uses a concentric locking collar to securely attach the bearing to the shaft while maintaining excellent shaft alignment and corrosion resistance.

What is the advantage of a concentric lock bearing?
Concentric lock bearings provide even shaft clamping around the entire shaft circumference, helping reduce vibration, shaft wear, and loosening compared to set screw locking systems.

Are SUE200 Series bearings suitable for food processing equipment?
Yes. Their stainless steel construction makes them a popular choice for food processing and washdown environments where corrosion resistance is important.

Can stainless steel bearings rust?
Stainless steel bearings offer significantly greater corrosion resistance than standard steel bearings, but the level of protection depends on the environment, exposure to chemicals, and maintenance practices.
