Jeremywell Pillow Block Bearings
Pillow blocks are the most popular choice of mounted units, providing shaft support. The UCP pillow block mounted bearing series has two bolt holes, and a set screw lock is designed for mounting onto bearing surfaces parallel to the shaft axis, such as conveyor belts. This ready-to-mount unit has solid base cast iron housing, chrome steel bearings, and is designed for efficient operation at a wide range of speeds. This one-piece pillow block housing allows for a stationary outer ring and rotating inner ring. Insert bearing maintains the separation between moving parts to reduce rotational friction, and to support radial and axial loads. The bearing is secured to the shaft with set screws to prevent slippage. This mounted bearing is used in food and beverage manufacturing, textile industry and many other industrial manufacturing.
Solid-Base Mounted Bearing
This ready-to-mount unit has solid base cast iron housing which is manufactured without cavities and fillers, helping eliminate material build-up from under the bearing. Whereas, a hollow base is susceptible to build-up that can trap moisture and therefor cause corrosion to the cast iron housing. Jeremywell pillow block bearings only come with a solid base, making them a lot stronger and easier to maintain than a hollow base.
Self-Alignment Feature
If the bearing is crooked for example when you lay it on a flat table, it is not flat. Please dont worry. This is our self-alignment feature. These bearing are meant to have some play in them. When you mount them, just use the shaft to rotate the bearing into proper position, or if it is not out of alignment by much, the bearing will correct their own alignment once they begin to rotate. Because if the bearings were not aligned properly and spinning at high RPMs then sure disaster would happen. So our self-alignment feature is a way to prevent this from happening.
