Flange Bearing Hillman 58102 Bronze 1/2 x 3/4 x 1 x 1/2 4-Pack

Description

Product Overview

The Hillman 58102 flange bearing is engineered to meet the demanding requirements of modern industrial equipment. Constructed from high‑quality bronze, this plain bearing delivers excellent wear resistance and natural lubrication properties, reducing the need for frequent maintenance. Its flanged design provides a secure mounting surface that aligns precisely with shaft housings, ensuring consistent alignment and load distribution. The bearing measures 1/2″ inner diameter, 3/4″ outer diameter, 1″ overall length, and a 1/2″ flange thickness, making it compatible with a wide range of standard shafts and housings. Oil‑impregnated pores within the bronze matrix further enhance performance by delivering a steady supply of lubricant directly to the contact surfaces, extending service life even in high‑temperature or high‑load environments. The corrosion‑resistant finish protects the bearing from moisture, chemicals, and other harsh conditions commonly encountered in manufacturing, automotive, and agricultural settings.

Usage

This flange bearing excels in applications where reliable rotation and minimal friction are critical. It is commonly used in power transmission systems such as gearboxes, motor shafts, and conveyor drives, where its robust construction can handle radial and axial loads without compromising precision. The bearing’s oil‑impregnated composition makes it suitable for environments that demand continuous lubrication, including heavy‑duty pumps, mixers, and agricultural machinery. Its corrosion‑resistant properties allow it to operate effectively in outdoor installations, marine equipment, and facilities with exposure to chemicals or moisture. Engineers and maintenance technicians appreciate the ease of installation—simply slide the bearing onto the shaft and secure the flange to the housing, eliminating the need for additional fasteners or complex alignment procedures. The 4‑pack configuration provides cost‑effective redundancy for multi‑point installations or for keeping spare parts on hand, ensuring minimal downtime during routine maintenance or unexpected repairs.

FAQ

What types of loads can the Hillman 58102 flange bearing handle?

The bearing is designed for moderate radial loads and can also accommodate axial loads due to its flanged design. It is ideal for applications such as gearboxes, motor shafts, and conveyor systems where both load types are present.

Do I need to apply additional lubricant during installation?

Because the bearing is oil‑impregnated, it already contains a reserve of lubricant that will gradually release during operation. In most cases, no extra lubricant is required unless the operating environment is extremely harsh or the bearing is subjected to unusually high temperatures.

Is the bearing suitable for outdoor or marine applications?

Yes. The bronze material and corrosion‑resistant finish make the bearing well‑suited for outdoor installations, marine equipment, and any setting where exposure to moisture or chemicals is a concern.

Can I replace a single bearing in a multi‑bearing assembly?

Absolutely. The 4‑pack configuration allows you to replace individual bearings as needed without having to purchase an entire new set, providing flexibility and cost savings for maintenance teams.

What is the recommended shaft speed for this bearing?

While the exact speed limit depends on specific operating conditions, the Hillman 58102 flange bearing typically performs well up to 3,600 RPM when properly lubricated and installed within its design specifications.
