Pillow Block Bearing Housing Split Plummer Block Housing
In Split Plummer (or pillow) block housings, the housing body is split into an upper section and a lower section. This gives significantly simpler mounting and maintenance. The two halves of housing form a matched pair and must not be interchanged with parts from other housings.
Split Plummer block housings are an excellent choice for easy installation and maintenance as they not only accommodate pre-assembled shafts but also simplify bearing inspections and maintenance as the shaft does not need to be disassembled. These types of bearing housing are designed for self-aligning ball bearings, spherical roller bearings, and CARB toroidal roller bearings.
