Core Value Proposition |
| Core Positioning |
The balanced choice offering economy, torque resistance and high space utilisation. |
An economical, convenient and versatile basic flange solution. |
An economical, reinforced flange solution offering high torque resistance. |
The H-type strikes an excellent balance between the cost of the F-type and the performance of the K-type. |
| Flange Design |
Rectangular (double-beveled) flange. Cut from a circular flange to form two parallel, wide mounting surfaces, with mounting holes on both sides. |
A complete round flange with evenly spaced mounting holes. |
Wide square or rectangular flanges, typically mounted at the four corners. |
The H-type utilises the minimum amount of material to provide the maximum effective moment-resisting arm in a specific direction. |
| Cost and Space Efficiency |
Extremely high. Offers the highest material utilisation, with only a negligible increase in cost whilst providing significantly better torque resistance than the F-type, and a more compact overall profile. |
High. Lowest cost; the round profile may occupy dead space. |
High. Requires a large amount of material, resulting in the highest cost, and necessitates a substantial installation area. |
The H-type is the preferred choice when seeking ‘cost-effectiveness in torque resistance’ and ‘space utilisation’. |
| Resistance to Overturning Moments |
Good. The two parallel wide faces provide significantly better directional anti-tipping capability than round flanges, and are particularly effective at resisting torques acting perpendicular to the axis of the wide faces. |
Average. |
Good. Provides excellent all-round torque resistance. |
For most applications involving directional off-centre loading, the H-type provides sufficient and efficient rigidity. |
| Installation and Layout |
Convenient and neat. The two parallel mounting faces are easy to align and install side-by-side on aluminium profiles and sheet metal, facilitating modular, high-density linear layouts. |
Convenient, but layout flexibility is average. |
Sturdy, but takes up a lot of space and has low layout density. |
In compact designs requiring multiple bearings to be mounted side-by-side, the H-type offers the most elegant and space-saving layout. |
| Versatility |
Fully compatible with the LM series. Inner diameter, precision and service life are consistent with the standard LM-UU, ensuring global interchangeability. |
Fully compatible. |
Fully compatible. |
It shares the unrivalled supply chain advantages of the LM series. |
