Plummer Block

A Plummer Block, also known as a Pillow Block, is a robust mounting assembly that houses and supports a rotating shaft with a bearing. It is widely used in industrial applications where the shaft needs to be supported while allowing free rotation with minimal friction.

• Bearing Housing Assembly:
  Consists of a housing (cast iron, cast steel, or aluminum) and an insert bearing (usually self-aligning) that supports the shaft.

• Easy Installation & Maintenance:
  The split housing design allows for easy mounting, dismounting, and maintenance without removing the shaft.

• High Load Capacity & Rigidity:
  Suitable for radial and axial loads, even in demanding and heavy-duty environments.

• Sealing Options Available:
  Comes with seals (felt, labyrinth, or rubber) to prevent dust, dirt, and moisture entry.

• Interchangeable Components:
  Bearing inserts and housings can be replaced separately, reducing downtime and cost.
