Bearings & Machined Parts

Housings · flanges · couplings · structures

Bearing housings, covers, flanges, couplings and machined structures. A bearing bore is not cut to nominal size: the bearing or journal is measured first and the bore set to it, with the clearance or interference written into the inspection record. Paired housings are bored at both ends in one set-up, so coaxiality comes from the fixture rather than a second alignment.

Typical use

  • Bearing housings and covers
  • Flanges, couplings and connectors
  • Frames and welded structures
  • Connecting parts for pumps, valves and hydraulics

Order paired housings together and we machine them together — done in separate batches, coaxiality is where they come apart.
