Product Overview: The P 205 Pillow Block Bearing Housing
The P 205 bearing housing is a fundamental component within our P 200 Series of Bearing Housings. This robust unit is crafted from high-grade cast iron, designed to provide sturdy and reliable support for rotating shafts. It is specifically engineered to accommodate a compatible insert ball bearing, such as the UC 205, which typically features a 25mm bore. This combination ensures optimal performance and protection for the bearing, extending its operational life.
Pillow block housings, also commonly known as plummer blocks, are essential for industrial applications where the shaft axis needs to be aligned parallel to the mounting surface. The P 205 features a solid two-bolt base, ensuring a secure and stable attachment to machinery foundations. Our range of bearing housings meets industry-standard specifications, providing excellent durability and consistent performance in a wide array of industrial environments. By enclosing the insert bearing, the P 205 housing offers superior protection against contaminants and mechanical damage, simplifying maintenance and contributing to overall system reliability.
