Plummer block housings loose

Plummer Block Units have a long or short foot. Housings with a long foot are screwed to the adjacent construction through slotted holes, housings with a short foot through blind tapped holes. Housing units are available as pillow block, flanged and take-up housing units in many different designs. The units are ready for assembly and consist of gray cast iron or sheet steel housings with integrated radial insert bearings. In order to ensure the function and operational safety under all operating conditions, the bearing and housing are matched to one another. Due to the spherical lateral surface of the bearing outer ring and the concave housing bore, housing units compensate for static misalignments of the shaft, see compensation of misalignments. The units are mainly used as fixed bearings. The housings are screwed to the adjacent construction. Easier tolerances are sufficient for the screw-on surfaces. Housings come in many different variations. With us you will find flanged housings, housing units, take-up housings and pillow block housing units. Housings and the associated bearings form bearing units that have proven themselves in machines, systems and devices. If you need other housings or housing designs, please contact us. The bearing housings are mainly made of gray cast iron. We supply housings made of cast steel and nodular cast iron on request. Since the bearings are usually lubricated with grease and the initial filling lasts a long time, most housings do not have any relubrication holes. However, sprues or markings are provided so that lubrication holes can be made if necessary. When relubricating, make sure that excess grease can escape.
