Self-lubricating pillow block bearings are designed to operate without the need for external lubrication. This means that they do not require regular maintenance, making them ideal for applications where maintenance is difficult or impossible. Self-lubricating bearings are typically made of materials that can withstand high temperatures and harsh environments. They are also designed to last longer than traditional bearings and are often used in high-speed applications.

There are two basic products under the heading of self-lubricating bearings: self-lubricating bearing inserts and self-lubricating bearing units.

Self-lubricating bearing inserts Self-lubricating bearing inserts, commonly referred to as wide inner ring bearings, are designed for use in the various housings offered within the self-lubricating bearing unit range, as well as for applications where the user’s own housing is preferred. They are essentially graphite sleeve ball bearings with overall design features that make them more powerful and versatile than standard ball bearings. Type of mounting in the bearing unit. Integral design features of the bearing insert, such as compactness and lubrication.

Graphite is a common material used in self-lubricating pillow block bearings. Graphite has excellent self-lubricating properties and can withstand high temperatures and corrosive environments. When used in pillow block bearings, graphite can reduce friction, wear, and noise. It also has a long service life, making it ideal for applications where regular maintenance is not possible.

Compared with normal plain bearings, self-lubricating bearings are superior in wear resistance, seizure resistance and friction properties, and realize performance enhancement and maintenance-free.

Self-lubricating pillow block bearings that contain graphite are available in a variety of shapes and sizes. They can be made of different materials, such as steel, bronze, or plastic. The choice of material depends on the application requirements, such as load capacity, speed, and environment.

Pillow block bearings provide excellent performance even in poor conditions and in areas where lubrication is not possible. We offer a portfolio of quality pillow block-bearing self lubricating designed to improve the reliability and efficiency of industrial equipment and machinery that keep industry in motion.

Pillow block bearings are a type of mounted bearing that consists of a bearing insert and a housing. The housing is typically made of metal or thermoplastic material and has a bore that is designed to fit the bearing insert. Pillow block bearings with self-lubricating graphite offer several advantages over other types of pillow block bearings:

Reduced maintenance: Pillow block bearings with self-lubricating graphite do not require external lubrication. The graphite in the bearing provides continuous self-lubrication, which reduces maintenance requirements and prolongs the life of the bearing.

Corrosion resistance: Graphite is a highly corrosion-resistant material, which makes it an excellent choice for applications where the bearing may be exposed to harsh environments or corrosive substances.

High load capacity: Pillow block bearings with self-lubricating graphite can handle high radial and axial loads, making them ideal for heavy-duty applications.

High temperature tolerance: Graphite has a high temperature tolerance, which means that these bearings can operate at higher temperatures than bearings made from other materials.

Noise reduction: The self-lubricating graphite in these bearings can also help reduce noise and vibration, which makes them ideal for applications where noise levels need to be kept to a minimum.

Cost-effective: Pillow block bearings with self-lubricating graphite are cost-effective because they do not require external lubrication, which reduces maintenance costs and extends the life of the bearing.

Overall, pillow block bearings with self-lubricating graphite offer several advantages over other types of pillow block bearings, including reduced maintenance, corrosion resistance, high load capacity, high temperature tolerance, noise reduction, and cost-effectiveness.
