Browning VF2S-216 Flange Mounted Bearing Unit

Browning VF2S-216 Flange Mounted Bearing Unit is a 1-inch bore, two-bolt flange ball bearing housing with a setscrew locking mechanism for secure shaft retention. The cast‑iron housing accepts a 52100 steel bearing insert with a zone‑hardened inner race, designed for fixed, non‑expansion (standard duty) service. It uses a single lip contact seal paired with a flinger to help retain lubricant while excluding contaminants, and it mounts on a 1‑inch shaft using a two‑bolt flange configuration. This Browning unit is listed as Normal Duty with a 1" shaft size and is compatible with Browning VF2S-216 family configurations; some listings reference a VF2S-216 AH variant featuring a powder‑coat epoxy housing. Maximum operating temperature is indicated at 200. With its compact footprint and robust casting, it provides dependable support for light‑ to moderate‑duty drives where precise alignment and firm locking are essential.
