About Hanger Bearings

Hanger bearings are used as rotational bearings for drive and screw-conveyor shafts. Typically, these industrial shafts are enclosed with a housing or conveyor trough. Hanger bearings are comprised of a split-roller bearing in a cast iron split-housing with a threaded boss that provides suspension for the conveyor cross-bracing. A swivel fixing at the cross-bracing joint is recommended to provide alignment of the bearings. Frames for hanger bearings mount at the top or to the side of the housing. The bearing is suspended to the center for shaft mounting. Hanger bearings are used extensively in agricultural applications and heavy industry for heavy industry. They are also used in automotive assemblies, aircraft assemblies, and marine driveshaft assemblies.

Products & Services Related to Hanger Bearings

Flange Mounted Bearings

Flange mounted bearings are used when a shaft axis is perpendicular to the bearing mounting surface. They are available in 2, 3, or 4-hole configurations.

Linear Bearings

Linear bearings are used in applications where a component needs to be moved along a straight line with high accuracy.

Pillow Block Bearings

Pillow block bearings are mounted bearings that are used to provide load support for a rotating shaft’s axis.

Plain Bearings and Sleeve Bearings

Plain bearings and sleeve bearings (also referred to as bushings or journal bearings) are used to constrain, guide or reduce friction in rotary or linear applications. They function via a sliding action.

Takeup Bearings

Take-up bearings are primarily used to correctly tension conveyor belts and systems, or to align tracks. They are available in three component types: bearing, frame, and take-up assembly (frame with bearing).
