Moline Even-Lok™ Expansion Piloted Flange Bearing

Moline Even-Lok™ Expansion Piloted Flange Bearing

Precision Alignment and Thermal Flexibility for Demanding Applications

The Moline Even-Lok™ Expansion Piloted Flange Bearing is engineered to deliver precise alignment, secure shaft retention, and long-lasting performance in industrial and agricultural environments. Built with Moline’s patented Even-Lok™ concentric locking system, this bearing provides a uniform 360-degree grip around the shaft. By evenly distributing clamping pressure, the Even-Lok™ mechanism eliminates shaft fretting, distortion, and premature wear—issues commonly associated with traditional set screw locking methods.

Expansion Design for Axial Movement

Protects Equipment from Thermal Stress

The expansion-style bearing insert allows controlled axial movement of the shaft, making it ideal for systems subject to temperature changes or extended shaft lengths. By accommodating thermal expansion and contraction, the bearing reduces mechanical stress, preserves alignment, and significantly extends component life—especially in continuous-duty or high-temperature environments.

Precision Piloted Flange Housing

Compact, Accurate, and Durable

The piloted flange housing features a precision-machined pilot extension that ensures exact centering during installation, improving alignment accuracy and reducing the risk of misalignment. Its compact footprint makes it ideal for tight installations where space is limited, while the rugged cast iron construction provides excellent resistance to shock, vibration, and load-heavy conditions.

Smooth, Efficient Bearing Performance

Deep-Groove Ball Bearing Insert

At the core of the assembly is a precision ball bearing insert with hardened steel balls and deep-groove raceways for smooth rotation, efficient load distribution, and reduced friction. A built-in relubrication fitting makes routine maintenance straightforward, helping extend bearing life and minimize downtime.
