About Pillow Block Bearings

Pillow block bearings are mounted bearings that are used to provide load support for a rotating shaft’s axis. Their mounting surface is on a line parallel to the axis of the shaft. Elongated bolt holes in the base or feet of pillow block bearings permit adjustment and easy mounting. Product categories include plain bearings, ball bearings, cylindrical-roller bearings, needle-roller bearings, tapered-rolling bearings, hydrodynamic bearings, and more. With pillow block bearings, product selection is based on shaft size, radial and thrust load requirements, and dimensions and measurements.

Products & Services Related to Pillow Block 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.

Hanger Bearings

Hanger bearings are used as rotational bearings for drive and screw conveyor shafts that are enclosed with a housing or trough.

Linear Bearings

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

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).
