Pillow Block Bearings

Motion offers pillow block bearings, organized by locking device, overall length, housing construction, bore diameter, housing material, and brand. Pillow block bearings are self-contained bearing units designed for straightforward mounting and reliable support of rotating shafts in various applications. Pillow block and base-mount bearings carry radial and axial loads. They are often mounted in housings called pillow blocks, which support shafts and increase precision. The pillow block protects the bearing and contains the mounting holes while setscrews or locking collars secure the insert bearing in the pillow block. Pillow blocks compensate for mounting errors and may be split into two pieces to easily inspect and replace bearings.
