FAQ

What type of bearing insert is compatible with the FST-505 housing?

The FST-505 housing is designed for a standard UC205 or equivalent bearing insert, which has a 25mm inner diameter and a spherical outer diameter to accommodate misalignment.

Is this housing pre-lubricated, and what grease should be used for re-lubrication?

This is a used housing and its lubrication state is unknown; it should be cleaned and re-lubricated before use. A standard NLGI 2 lithium-based grease is suitable for most general industrial applications.

What are the dimensions of the mounting slots?

While exact manufacturer drawings are scarce for this model, take-up units like the FST-505 typically follow standard dimensions for their size class. It is crucial to measure the existing frame or the housing’s slot dimensions directly to ensure proper fitment.
