LINK-BELT PL series pillow blocks are mounted bearing units designed to bolt onto a flat surface, holding rotating shafts in power transmission systems. They suit setups where the shaft sits parallel to the mounting base and where firm support with controlled alignment is needed. MR Industrial Accessories LLC supplies this line to customers throughout the United States and Latin America.

The part number follows a pattern: the first letters indicate the pillow block style, the following digits denote the size or bearing series, and the trailing characters specify sealing, locking, or housing options. For instance, PL3W2E20E and PL3W2E32E share the same overall format but differ in the middle number, which relates to shaft diameter and the mounted bearing series. Providing the complete part number removes any guesswork.

Typical applications include belt conveyors, bucket elevators, mills, mixers, centrifugal pumps, and process equipment in food, chemical, cement, and aggregate plants. The housing's robust construction and relubrication capability make these pillow blocks a practical choice where flanged bearings might fall short.

When selecting a pillow block, confirm shaft diameter, bearing series, locking method, and the sealing needed for the operating environment. Mounting calls for a flat, rigid base, properly torqued bolts, and careful alignment between units to prevent parasitic loads. Follow the equipment's lubrication schedule, and in dusty or damp conditions, opt for seals with higher protection.

Pillow blocks from various manufacturers share standardized dimensions, but housing tolerances and sealing systems can differ. When replacing a unit, compare the entire part number rather than just the shaft size. MR Industrial Accessories LLC can suggest a compatible alternative.
