Pillow block bearing is a bearing used in low torque, light load applications. It consists of a mounting bracket or pillow block that houses the bearings. The spherical rolling elements in pillow block bearings have a smaller contact surface with the bearing raceway, which reduces friction. Low friction allows pillow block bearings to operate at higher speeds, but with lower load capacities than roller bearings. Bearing housings are available in a variety of configurations and are mounted on a surface parallel to the shaft to which the bearing is mounted. The bolt holes are usually slotted to allow for adjustment during installation. Pillow block bearing allows the shaft to rotate smoothly while the base supports the load. If you buy Pillow block bearings, you most likely already have some information about them. For those who are not familiar with pillow block bearing, we will use this article to introduce the basics of pillow block bearing.

Shaft Diameter – The diameter must match the appropriate bore diameter of the bearing unit. Properly sized pillow block bearings slide easily onto the shaft and into position, ready to be secured with a locking device.Shaft Height – Shaft height or backing height is determined by measuring the distance from the base of the pillow block bearing to the center of the shaft.Shaft Size – The maximum diameter of the shaft or the diameter of the bore into which the bearing is mounted.Maximum Speed – The maximum shaft speed a bearing is designed to allow for operation.Maximum Load – The dynamic load capacity of a bearing capable of carrying both radial and thrust loads, or the maximum allowable radial load of a bearing capable of carrying radial loads only. The load rating varies with shaft speed. Consult the manufacturer for load ratings at various shaft speeds.

The average inflation rate of 2.45% has a compounding effect between 2000 and 2025. As noted above, this yearly inflation rate compounds to produce an overall price difference of 83.21% over 25 years.

This means that today's prices are 1.83 times as high as average prices since 2000, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics consumer price index. A dollar today only buys 54.581% of what it could buy back then.

9. The important surfaces of the inner and outer rings of the bearing must be tested for roundness using a high-precision roundness meter.
