Pillow block bearings

igubal® pillow block bearings are up to 40% more cost-effective and up to 80% lighter than comparable metal solutions. Their operation is also more economical, because they are lubrication-free and therefore maintenance-free. igubal® pillow block bearings have a high level of durability and stiffness – even when they are exposed to demanding ambient conditions over years. They are resistant to media, corrosion-free and function properly even in liquids and media. Even UV radiation from the sun, nuclear radiation and temperatures between -30 and +80°C do not have any negative impact on their running properties and their wear resistance. The pillow block bearings are additionally resistant to dust and dirt. The pillow blocks are available for shaft diameters from 5 to 50mm (tolerance: h6 to h9). The spherical balls provide automatic angle compensation. This enables the bearings to automatically equal out alignment errors and edge loads, misalignments and deflections of the shaft. In contrast to bearings made of metal, they are also able to absorb and dampen high-frequency vibrations.

Application areas

igubal® pillow block bearings ideally compensate for shaft misalignments, tilts and bends through their spherical adjustability. The main areas of use are therefore applications in which such effects cannot be prevented.

Tolerances

Maintenance-free igubal® pillow block bearings are designed with an inner diameter tolerance according to E10. The shaft tolerance should be between h6 and h9. The bearing clearance compensates for bearing expansion due to warming.

Assembly

igubal® pillow block bearings are designed for mounting with two screws. No exact bearing housing alignment is necessary, since the spherical bearing automatically compensates for alignment errors.

Product range

igubal® pillow block bearings are available in the K and E dimensional series for shaft diameters from 5 to 50mm. The K dimensional series is available in imperial dimensions. Contact us to request other dimensions.
