FAG EDK 515-612 End Cover for Plummer Block Housings

Application of the FAG EDK 515-612 End Cover

The FAG EDK 515-612 end cover is designed for use in split plummer block (bearing) housings, where it provides reliable sealing and protection of the bearing assembly. It prevents the ingress of dust, moisture, metal particles, and other contaminants, helping to maintain correct lubrication conditions and ensure long-term bearing performance in industrial environments.

Key Advantages

• Enhanced bearing protection - prevents contamination and extends service life.

• Stable operation of rotating units - ensures grease retention and reduced wear.

• High mechanical strength and durability - suitable for demanding industrial conditions.

• Compatible with SES / SNV housing series - easy integration into existing assemblies.

• Trusted FAG / Schaeffler manufacturing quality - reliability confirmed in global industrial applications.

Technical Data

Main Product Description

The FAG EDK 515-612 end cover is a functional sealing component used to close the free side of a plummer block housing, ensuring optimal operating conditions for ball or spherical roller bearings installed inside. This cover plays a critical role in preventing lubricant leakage while simultaneously blocking dust, dirt, moisture, and chemical contaminants common in industrial environments.

Engineered from robust materials suitable for continuous operation under high load conditions, the EDK series end covers are widely used in:

• conveyor systems,

• processing equipment,

• power transmission assemblies,

• heavy industry,

• mining operations,

• agricultural machinery.

By maintaining proper lubrication levels and reducing external influence on internal bearing elements, the FAG EDK 515-612 contributes directly to extended service intervals, reduced downtime, and lower maintenance costs.
