INA RFE 50 N Bearing Housing Unit Ø50 mm

Main Description:

The INA RFE 50 N is a complete bearing housing unit designed for shaft diameters of 50 mm, combining cast-iron housing and a pre-assembled ball bearing for ready-to-mount performance. This bearing unit is ideal for industrial applications requiring a robust monitoring of shaft support, simplified maintenance and high uptime. The integrated housing ensures the ball bearing is perfectly aligned, protected and optimized to deliver high durability in demanding machine environments.

In heavy-duty settings such as production lines, conveyors, drive systems or material-handling equipment, the RFE 50 N housing unit offers a turnkey solution — the cast-iron housing provides exceptional rigidity, while the underlying ball bearing delivers precise shaft guidance and efficient radial load distribution. Buyers in the B2B segment gain from a single component that reduces complexity compared to sourcing housing and bearing separately.

From a technical standpoint, the key advantage of this bearing housing solution is that it is factory-matched: the housing and bearing are designed together, ensuring reliable bearing operation, minimal installation error, and extended service life. The term “bearing housing” here refers to the supporting structure in which a ball bearing is mounted; “bearing unit” captures the complete assembly ready for integration.

Technical Features & Benefits:

• Bore size: Ø 50 mm - ideally matched for shafts of nominal 50 mm diameter.

• Outer diameter: approx. 165 mm; overall width about 62.8 mm - compact yet rugged.

• Housing material: Cast iron - high structural integrity, excellent for industrial loads.

• Complete unit format: pre-assembled housing + ball bearing, ready for immediate installation.

• Designed for industrial applications with emphasis on “high durability”, stable shaft support, and reduced downtime.

• Suitable for heavy-duty usage in production machinery, conveyor systems, material handling and other applications demanding ready-to-mount bearing solutions.

Installation, Maintenance & Logistics:

Installation is straightforward: secure the housing to the machine frame, slide the shaft Ø 50 mm into the bearing, and fix according to the recommended assembly steps. The integrated assembly reduces alignment stresses and simplifies maintenance. Thanks to the robust housing, the ball bearing is better protected against contamination and misalignment, which contributes to longer life and lower maintenance intervals. From a logistics and procurement viewpoint, the availability of this bearing unit in stock supports rapid deployment in production environments, aligning with supply-chain efficiency and minimizing production downtime.

FAQ:
Q1: Is the RFE 50 N bearing housing unit suitable for shafts of exactly Ø50 mm?
A1: Yes - the internal bore is Ø50 mm and the unit is designed as a ready bearing unit (housing + ball bearing) for that shaft size.

Q2: Does purchasing this unit avoid the need to separately source a housing and a ball bearing?
A2: Yes - this product is a complete bearing housing unit, so you receive a pre-assembled housing with bore for Ø50 mm shaft and an integrated ball bearing, streamlining procurement and installation.

Q3: What are the main benefits of choosing this type of bearing housing unit for industrial applications?
A3: The advantages include high durability, engine-like stability of shaft support, simplified mounting, and reduced installation and downtime costs. The fact that housing and bearing are matched enhances reliability and longevity.

Q4: How quick is the delivery and what about local availability?
A4: The unit is available from the local warehouse in Lublin for fast dispatch, supporting just-in-time industry needs and minimizing waiting time.
