2 7/16 in. Pillow Block

Introducing the 2 7/16 in. Pillow Block, the ultimate solution for providing solid support to your rotating shaft applications. Designed with precision and durability in mind, this pillow block is a must-have for industrial and mechanical installations.

At the heart of this assembly is a robust cast iron housing that offers exceptional strength and reliability. The cast iron construction ensures long-lasting performance, even in demanding environments. The housing is meticulously powdercoated with a vibrant green finish, not only adding an aesthetic appeal but also providing a protective layer against corrosion and wear.

The centerpiece of the pillow block is the chrome steel ball-bearing insert. Crafted from high-quality materials, this bearing insert guarantees smooth and efficient shaft rotation. The ball-bearing design reduces friction, allowing for reduced power consumption and increased operational efficiency. With a 2 7/16 in. bearing bore, it accommodates a wide range of shaft sizes, making it versatile for various applications.

Securing the bearing insert in place is a reliable set screw locking mechanism. The set screw ensures a secure and firm grip on the shaft, preventing any unwanted movements or slippage during operation. This locking type ensures stability and minimizes the chances of misalignment, leading to extended bearing life.

The pillow block features two 3/4 in. mounting holes for easy installation onto a compatible mounting surface. With a bolt hole center-to-center distance of 7.25 in., it offers flexibility in positioning and mounting arrangements. The overall dimensions of the pillow block are 5.50 in. in height, 2.62 in. in width, and 9.50 in. in length, providing a compact yet sturdy solution.

In terms of load capacity, this pillow block is built to handle heavy-duty tasks. It boasts a dynamic load capacity of 12,927 lbs. and a static load capacity of 8,992 lbs., ensuring reliable performance under significant loads. These load capacities make it suitable for a wide range of industrial applications, from conveyor systems to machinery and equipment.

To ensure smooth operation and easy maintenance, the pillow block includes a 1/4 in. press-in grease fitting mounted off-center. This grease fitting allows for convenient lubrication of the bearing, promoting longevity and minimizing friction.

Rest assured, this 2 7/16 in. Pillow Block meets ISO standards, ensuring its compliance with international quality and performance guidelines. It is designed for center wood mount installation only, offering a sturdy and reliable foundation for your rotating shaft applications.

Please note that for optimal safety, BH-USA pillow block hangers are recommended for center mount installations only. This pillow block is not suitable for direct load hanging applications. Always consult the BH-USA Overhead Lift Guide for proper design and installation of your overhead lift system.

Experience the superior quality, performance, and reliability of the 2 7/16 in. Pillow Block, your go-to solution for robust shaft support in industrial and mechanical settings. Invest in this dependable mechanical component and enjoy smooth shaft rotation and enhanced operational efficiency for years to come.
