What are 2 bolt pillow block housed bearings and their typical applications?
2 bolt pillow block housed bearings are a type of mounted bearing that is secured with two bolts to a pillow block, which is a type of housing with a low profile and base to support the bearing. These units are widely used in a variety of light to medium duty applications ranging from conveyor belts to fans and blowers where radial loads are prevalent.
How can I select the appropriate 2 bolt pillow block bearing for my machinery?
To choose the right 2 bolt pillow block housed bearing, consider the shaft size, the load (both radial and axial, if applicable) that the bearing needs to support, and the environmental conditions it will operate in. Also, evaluate the housing material—whether cast iron, pressed steel, or thermoplastic—each suitable for different levels of durability and environmental resistance.
What are some key maintenance tips for 2 bolt pillow block housed bearings?
Maintaining 2 bolt pillow block housed bearings involves regular lubrication to minimise wear and tear, routine checks for misalignment or looseness, and inspections for signs of corrosion or contamination. Adhering to a maintenance schedule can significantly extend the life of the bearings and reduce machinery downtime.
Can I replace 2 bolt pillow block housed bearings on my own?
Replacing 2 bolt pillow block housed bearings is a relatively manageable task if you have basic mechanical skills and the right tools. It usually involves loosening the securing bolts, removing the old bearing, and replacing it with a new one, ensuring it's properly aligned and securely fastened. However, for high precision setups or critical applications, seeking professional assistance might be preferable to guarantee optimal functioning.
