  Flange bearings, also called flange mounted bearings or flanged devices, are used to mount ball bearings on vertical surfaces. The term 'flange' is used to protrude flat edges, rings or ribs on an object, or to maintain or strengthen its position on the rail. With flange bearings, sealed bearings are contained within the pre-assembled flange housing, allowing the inner ring to rotate freely in a solid and stable environment. There are different types of flange bearings, all designed for specific applications, all with load and performance characteristics, as well as other designs and cages. But all flange bearings are designed to be strong and robust against water or contaminants. This makes it ideal for supporting high loads, such as additional mounting devices with rotary or linear motion . Since the housing can be unscrewed and removed, flange bearings are much easier to replace than rotary pressure-adjusted bearings . The housing, a precise terrain perpendicular t
