Our Saniline housings have the bearing slots in front for attaching our safety covers and we don’t want them in the back of housing at the same time. Our safety covers are very easy to install and uninstall by hand, the bearing slots facing forward are easily washed out.

The bearing slots of standard bearing units are on the backside of housing and they can be contamination harbor points because of the difficulty to wash them out.

Our Cathodic electrodeposition (CED) coating for our steel covers has excellent corrosion resistance and is environmentally friendly.  The laser marking however doesn’t have that same corrosion resistance.  As we don’t like to see the rusted sea turtle logo on the cover we changed it to a pressed logo of COC.  The sea turtle logo is just a bit too complicated for a pressed mold.

LOCK NUT vs CROSSLOC

LOCK NUT vs CROSSLOC

LOCK NUT vs CROSSLOC

The adapter locking engages by moving adapter sleeve. The tapered O.D. sleeve moves between the tapered bore inner ring and the shaft to hold the shaft in place. That is usually done by tightening the lock nut to push or pull the adapter sleeve.

It is very difficult to tighten the lock nut of wide inner ring unitized adapter locking systems. It’s sometimes almost impossible to tighten as per their instructions’ turns.

Our CROSSLOC is a lot easier to move the adapter sleeve by tightening cap screws. The possible reasons are below.

LOCK NUT

  • The adapter sleeve is very thin to keep the same size as a setscrew locking bearing. It can become distorted making it impossible to tighten.
  • The lock nut has a lot of contact area and it needs a lot of torque to turn.

CROSSLOC CX

  • The CX bearing is one size bigger than CS set screw lock bearing to accommodate the standard adapter sleeve.
  • Small cap screws are easy to tighten with a hex key. The force of pushing the adapter sleeve by tightening it in a star pattern is a lot larger than by tightening the lock nut.
