Browning 767422 2-bolt Flange Bearing 2 Inch Id Cast Iron

Product Description

The BROWNING 767422 is a 2-bolt flange bearing unit designed for shaft support applications in industrial and mechanical drive systems. It accepts a 2-inch inside diameter shaft and uses a set screw locking mechanism to secure the shaft in position. The cast iron housing provides durability in demanding environments. The insert is manufactured from 52100 steel, a common bearing steel grade known for hardness and wear resistance. The overall length is 8.5 inches and the overall height is 5.25 inches, with mounting hole centers spaced 7.25 inches apart. Static load capacity is 6,601 pounds and dynamic load capacity is 9,752 pounds. Typical installers include millwrights, maintenance mechanics, and industrial technicians.

This flange bearing is suited for conveyor systems, fans, blowers, pump shafts, and similar rotating equipment in commercial and industrial settings. The 2-bolt mounting pattern simplifies installation on flat surfaces such as equipment frames, structural steel, and machine bases. The 5/8-inch bolt size is standard and compatible with common hardware. This unit is appropriate for applications requiring a removable, field-replaceable bearing with reliable load handling in both radial and moderate thrust conditions.

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-install flange bearing for industrial rotating equipment applications requiring a 2-inch bore, 2-bolt flange mount configuration.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by millwrights or qualified maintenance mechanics. Shut down and lock out all power to the equipment before removing or installing the bearing unit per OSHA lockout/tagout procedures. Ensure the mounting surface is clean, flat, and free of burrs before seating the flange housing. Tighten set screws to the shaft only after the unit is fully mounted and aligned to avoid induced load on the bearing.
