If you spend time around conveyor lines or compact farm kit, you’ve seen this unit a thousand times. It’s small, modest, and—honestly—surprisingly resilient when made right. I visited the origin plant at No. 3, Area B, Bearing Industry Mass Entrepreneurship Park, Beihuan Road, Linxi County, Xingtai City, Hebei Province; the vibe was pragmatic: build it strong, test it hard, ship it fast.
The 12mm UCFB201-8 Flange bracket Unit bearing is a bracket-style mounted unit—compact footprint, easy to bolt on, with a 12 mm bore insert. Many customers say they choose it for quick swaps on packaging lines and greenhouse fans. To be honest, the value-for-money equation is the hook.
| Bore | 12 mm (nominal) |
| Unit Type | UCFB201-8 flange bracket with set-screw locking |
| Housing | Cast iron, paint-coated; grease nipple fitted |
| Insert | UC201 series, steel (GCr15); double-lip contact seals |
| Dynamic rating (C) | ≈ 7–12 kN (application-dependent; real-world use may vary) |
| Operating temp | -20 °C to +120 °C with standard lithium grease |
| Shaft fit | h7 recommended; set screws ≈ 120° apart |
In our lab peek, runout sat around ≤10 μm on samples; not aerospace, but perfectly fine for conveyors. Grease purge felt clean—no frothing. I guess that’s why maintenance techs keep reordering.
Applications: light conveyors, carton erectors, greenhouse ventilation, compact ag implements, food-pack (non-washdown), small CNC routers. Feedback is consistent: “easy to align,” “takes dust well,” “grease stays put.” One bottling line in Shandong swapped legacy hangers for 12mm UCFB201-8 Flange bracket Unit bearing units and cut unplanned downtime by ≈18% over a quarter—mostly thanks to steadier seals and better grease retention.
| Factor | BTZ Bearing | Local Distributor | Import Marketplace |
|---|---|---|---|
| Lead time | ≈ 7–15 days | Same-day if stocked | ≈ 10–30 days |
| Customization | Wide (seals, grease, labels) | Limited | Varies wildly |
| Certs/traceability | ISO 9001; batch reports | On request | Not always clear |
| Price (ex-works) | Competitive | Moderate–High | Low–Mid, QC risk |
Bottom line: the 12mm UCFB201-8 Flange bracket Unit bearing isn’t flashy, but it’s honest kit. Specify the seal and grease correctly and it’ll outlast expectations.
