UKP217

UKP217 – Pillow block housing for stable bearing points with easy maintenance

Quality that safeguards processes
As a unit with matched rolling bearings, the housing ensures defined support, reliably transferring loads to the surrounding structure. This promotes consistent processes and reliable start-up and shut-down behavior of the system. At the same time, accessible surfaces simplify adjustment; matched seals protect the bearing area against contamination and moisture.

Design and manufacturing quality
The design is based on a solid, precision-machined housing, with an optional spherical seat facilitating self-alignment and compensating for assembly tolerances. Furthermore, suitable sealing systems and relubrication options help to minimize friction and wear. In split designs, the bearing can generally be replaced without removing the shaft, thus reducing downtime and allowing for predictable maintenance. The housing is made of gray cast iron, providing a robust foundation. The design is intended for tapered bearing bores, ensuring versatile application. The typical operating range extends from approximately -20°C to +120°C, covering many standard applications.

Convincing in everyday life
In practice, this leads to shorter downtimes, stable temperature and vibration levels, and reliable sealing – even in dusty or humid environments. This requires clean mating surfaces and a lubrication concept suitable for the application.

Summary
Conclusion: robustly constructed, easy to assemble and align – for consistent processes and reliable results in continuous operation.
