Locating Rings
Locating Rings, also known as Fixing Rings or Stabilising Rings, are identified by their FRB prefix, followed by figures indicating the width and outside diameter in millimetres, e.g. FRB 11.5/100.
Used in Bearing Housings such as SKF’s SNL Housings, the width of the bearing seat in the housing is machined in such a way that it can accommodate bearings in the locating, as well as, the non-locating position.
The located bearing, which locates the shaft axially in both directions, must be secured in the housing on both sides with a locating ring.
