A forestry company was experiencing frequent bearing failures on their lathe tray rolls. The competitor’s bearings were failing every two weeks due to build-up of pine tar on the locking mechanism and pine tar ingress into the bearing, resulting in subsequent failure and loss of lock.
Sealmaster® Solution
Regal® proposed a Sealmaster® Next Generation
Skwezloc® concentric lock bearing with felt
labyrinth seal solution. The felt labyrinth seal
provided improved sealing and the flinger helped
keep the pine tar away from getting inside the
bearing. The next generation Skwezloc concentric
lock collar design with an innovative circumferential
groove on the inner ring provided improved shaft
grip on the slightly undersized worn shafting being
used.

The Sealmaster® Next Generation
Skwezloc® concentric lock bearing
outlasted the competitor’s bearings by
8 months and counting! This solution
resulted in saving the plant over $900,000
per year on bearing replacement costs!
Sealmaster® mounted ball bearing with Next Generation Skwezloc® concentric lock provides a variety of features:
Innovative circumferential groove on the inner ring bore that improves shaft grip and reduces raceway
distortion for quieter smoother operation allowing for improved lock reliability
Larger cap screw and collar for improved clamping force to the shaft compared to competitive designs
Optimized chamfer profile that reduces stress concentrations when the collar is tightened
Designed for use on “commercial” T&P shafting**
Simple single screw installation; no axial movement during installation or risk of preloading the bearing
Patented design
Wide outer ring design provides increased grease capacity to lubricate the bearings.
Anti-rotation = pin and dimple system prevents the bearing OD from creep/rotation due to vibration over time while providing a full ±2” of
static misalignment.
Direct lube = pin and dimple system provides a direct lubrication path into bearing, eliminating the need to channel grease around a
lubrication groove common on standard mounted ball bearing units.
Felt labyrinth seal with rotating flinger helps direct contamination away from the sealing surfaces. Alternate seal options are available upon
request; see Sealmaster Custom Select.
Black oxide standard on inner/outer rings and seal components helps inhibit corrosion.
Zone hardened inner race provides a fully hardened ball path while leaving the race extensions unhardened, allowing better setscrew
holding power.
Length through bore is longer than most competitors for greater shaft stability.
Land-riding brass retainer has high strength, minimizes friction and provides grease circulation.
Solid base, pillow block, cast iron housing provides improved stability and resistance to shock and vibration.
Permanent metal nameplate allows for easy identification after years of operation.
Factory-filled with lithium complex NLGI 2 grease.
**Maximum speed rating on commercial (T&P) shafting equal to setscrew locking; consult bearing catalog
