These bearing houses are specially designed to improve hygiene and food safety in food production. Conventional seals push against a shaft, creating friction, which destroys the sealing effect. By using an alternative seal material that resists friction, heat and wear, and a spherical seal construction that constantly moves along with the bearing and shaft, this seal remains free of stress, has a long service life and increased tightness.
