Abstract: A food hygienic bearing assembly is presented herein. The assembly includes a housing, a bearing insert and an end cap. The housing includes a bore spanning between a first surface and a second surface, the bearing insert being disposed within the bore. A plurality of integral spacers extend from the second surface of the housing with a blind tapped hole disposed through each of the spacers and partially into a main body portion of the housing. The end cap is secured to the first surface of the housing in an at least partially covering relation to the bore via at least one fastener and at least one lubrication fitting. The end cap has a partially open configuration defined by a plurality of spaced holes disposed thereon, through which a mounting hole of the bearing insert is accessible without removing the end cap.
