igubal® pillow block bearings
 
igubal® pillow block bearings are very easy-to-install bearing units which are able to compensate alignment errors and prevent edge pressure.
 
The housing is made of igumid FC180, detectable and FDA-compliant materials for food applications.
 
Here, the spherical ball is made from iglidur® FC material, which is known for its low moisture absorption, low coefficient of friction during dry running and an extremely low tendency to stick-slip. This is especially important for low loads and very slow movements.

• High radial loads
• Media-resistant
• Space-saving design, easy to fit
• Predictable service life
• Maintenance-free and lubrication-free

Typical application areas

• Plant construction
• Automation
• Mechanical engineering
• Food industry
• Agricultural machines

When to use it? If chemical resistance is required If a cost-effective option is required If you need dirt-resistant bearings To adjust misalignments

When not to use it? If temperatures are higher than +80°C When an integrated fixing collar is required If diameters above 30mm are required When rotation speeds higher than 0.5m/s are required Use our filter options to find the suitable product

Application areas
 
Since igubal® pillow block bearings are also suitable for maintenance-free dry running, they are particularly suitable for applications in which the installation location is difficult to access, is in a damp or wet environment or has special hygiene requirements. As a result, igubal® pillow block bearings are used in wash-brush controls, in facade sunshade systems, in materials handling technology and in bakery equipment.
 
Installation
 
igubal® pillow block bearings are designed for mounting with two bolts. Exact alignment of the bearing housing is not necessary since the spherical bearing automatically compensates for alignment errors. Special adjusting rings can be used to fix the shaft.
