Pillow Block Bearings: Zero Lubrication & Maintenance-Free Solutions from igus®

igubal® pillow block bearings are a notable advancement in bearing technology. These innovative components provide a cost-effective and lightweight alternative to traditional metal bearings, with the added advantage of being maintenance-free due to their lubrication-free design. Their robust construction ensures high durability and stiffness, enabling them to withstand harsh environmental conditions over long periods. The material’s resistance to various media and extreme temperatures, along with its immunity to UV and nuclear radiation, ensures consistent performance without compromising wear resistance. Designed to fit a range of shaft diameters, these pillow block bearings also feature spherical balls that automatically adjust for alignment errors, edge loads, and shaft deflections, enhancing operational reliability. Additionally, their ability to absorb and dampen high-frequency vibrations distinguishes them from metal bearings, offering smoother and more stable performance across various applications.

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.

What are the advantages of igubal® pillow block bearings?

In addition to our plastic solutions for pillow block and fixed flange bearings, you also have the option of using our plastic bearing inserts in existing metallic systems.

This guarantees maintenance-free and long-lasting operating times!
