Bell Housings
Advantages & Technical Features
Bell housings play a crucial role in ensuring accurate alignment between pumps, electric motors, and internal‑combustion engines. By maintaining a rigid, concentric connection, they help prevent premature wear, vibration, and shaft misalignment—key factors in the long‑term reliability of hydraulic and mechanical systems.
Wide Compatibility Across Power Sources
Whether your system is powered by an electric motor, compact diesel engine, or petrol engine, we can supply a bell housing that matches the required mounting pattern and shaft interface. Our range supports common industry standards, including:
- IEC and NEMA electric motor frames
- SAE engine housings
- Standard hydraulic pump mounting flanges
Precision‑Machined Aluminium Construction
Our aluminium bell housings are:
- Lightweight, reducing overall system mass
- Corrosion‑resistant, ideal for outdoor or mobile applications
- Pre‑machined, ensuring accurate alignment and reducing installation time
- Thermally efficient, helping dissipate heat from pumps and motors
Engineered for Alignment & Noise Reduction
A properly matched bell housing helps:
- Maintain shaft concentricity
- Reduce vibration and mechanical noise
- Protect pump bearings and seals
- Improve overall system efficiency
These benefits are especially important in hydraulic systems where pump longevity and smooth operation are critical.
Expert Selection Support
If you’re unsure which bell housing you need, we can handle the entire selection process. Simply provide:
- The pump model
- The engine or motor type
- Your pressure and flow requirements
Our team will identify the correct housing, coupling, and mounting configuration to ensure a perfect fit.
Applications
Bell housings are used wherever pumps must be securely and accurately mounted to engines or motors. Common applications include:
Hydraulic Power Units
Ensuring precise alignment between electric motors and hydraulic pumps in industrial or mobile powerpacks.
Diesel & Petrol‑Driven Pump Systems
Ideal for compact engine‑driven units used in agriculture, construction, firefighting, and mobile hydraulic equipment.
Industrial Machinery
Supporting pumps used in presses, compactors, conveyors, and processing equipment where reliability and alignment are essential.
Mobile & Outdoor Equipment
Lightweight aluminium housings are well suited to portable systems, service vehicles, and equipment exposed to weather or vibration.
Custom or Non‑Standard Installations
For equipment with unique mounting patterns or older machinery, custom machining ensures compatibility and long‑term performance.
