Stainless Steel Pillow Block Bearing Units for Shaft Support
These two-bolt pillow block bearing units combine a pedestal housing with an insert bearing for supporting a rotating shaft on a mounting surface. The supplied views show elongated base mounting holes, an extended inner ring with set-screw locking and a housing-mounted grease fitting. They are intended for equipment enquiries where a stainless steel housed bearing arrangement is required.
The reference listing identifies the SUCP204–SUCP210 family. Photographed examples include SP206 housing and SSUC206 insert markings, together with an SP216-marked housing in the underside view. These are different reference examples, not proof that one set of dimensions or ratings applies across the range. Specify the complete unit designation and shaft diameter when requesting a quote.
Product Specifications and Ordering Options
| Item | Product information / details to confirm |
|---|---|
| Product type | Two-bolt pedestal / pillow block bearing unit with an insert bearing. |
| Reference series | SUCP204, SUCP205, SUCP206, SUCP207, SUCP208, SUCP209 and SUCP210 are listed in the supplied reference. Confirm availability and exact designation for the order. |
| Material | Stainless steel is specified in the supplier reference. Confirm housing, bearing rings, rolling elements, set screws and grease fitting materials separately; a common alloy grade for the complete unit is not established. |
| Shaft connection | Extended inner ring with visible set-screw locking. State shaft diameter, tolerance, surface condition and locking requirements. |
| Base mounting | Two elongated mounting holes. Confirm bolt spacing, slot dimensions, centre height, footprint and mounting bolt requirements from a drawing. |
| Lubrication | Grease fitting visible on the housing. Grease specification, initial fill and relubrication procedure are order-specific details to confirm. |
| Sealing | Confirm seal arrangement, lubricant compatibility and contamination exposure. No washdown or ingress-protection rating is established by the photographs. |
| Operating conditions | Provide radial and axial loads, speed, duty cycle, temperature, environment and required service life for selection review. |
| Supply scope | Confirm complete unit versus housing or insert only, quantities, documentation and packaging. Mounting bolts and other accessories are not assumed included. |
Configuration Details
- Two-bolt pedestal: a mounting base locates the shaft-support unit above the equipment surface.
- Elongated base holes: provide positioning clearance during installation; final mounting dimensions must match the selected unit drawing.
- Insert-bearing arrangement: the housing and insert must be ordered as a compatible assembly rather than selected from appearance alone.
- Set-screw locking: visible screws in the extended inner ring secure the shaft connection using the selected unit’s installation instructions.
- Grease access: the fitting position should remain accessible after installation for the agreed maintenance procedure.
Selection and Installation Considerations
Begin with the shaft diameter and bearing-unit designation, then check centre height, mounting-hole spacing and the base envelope against the machine drawing. A matching bore alone does not establish interchangeability with an existing unit. Include photographs of the old assembly and any readable markings when requesting a replacement.
Selection also depends on the load direction, load variation, operating speed, shaft support arrangement and contamination conditions. Request confirmed load and speed data for the exact insert and housing combination. Do not infer capacity from a model number, housing size or photographed finish.
Check the mounting surface, shaft alignment, fastener specification and shaft-locking procedure before installation. Any permissible alignment adjustment, tightening torques and lubrication intervals must come from the approved unit documentation. Do not use the housing bolts to force a misaligned shaft into position.
Applications to Discuss
Typical enquiry contexts include conveyor shaft supports, packaging equipment, light industrial machinery and process equipment requiring a stainless steel bearing-unit arrangement. Exposure to cleaning chemicals, salt, moisture or food-contact zones needs a separate materials, sealing and lubricant review. Stainless steel construction alone does not establish hygienic certification or suitability for direct food contact.
Inspection and Documentation Requirements
Define the required checks before ordering: designation and component identity, shaft bore, centre height, mounting slots, housing condition, seal condition, shaft-locking components and grease fitting. Specify any material certificates, dimensional reports, running checks or traceability requirements so the documentation scope can be confirmed. See AODSON’s quality control and inspection information.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I order a replacement using only the SUCP number?
Send the full marking together with shaft diameter, centre height, bolt spacing and a drawing or sample details. Similar designations should not be assumed dimensionally or functionally interchangeable without verification.
Is every component made from 304 or 316 stainless steel?
No single grade is confirmed for the complete assembly. Specify the required material for the housing and bearing components, and request confirmation for the selected model.
What information is needed for a quotation?
Provide the full unit designation, shaft diameter, mounting drawing, loads, speed, temperature, environment, sealing and lubrication needs, quantity and destination. Identify whether you require a complete unit or a replacement component.
Request a Pillow Block Bearing Quote
Send your unit markings or drawing, shaft and mounting dimensions, material requirements and operating conditions. Include the required quantity and delivery destination for a focused selection and supply review.
