A UELP mounted unit pairs an NTN insert bearing with a cast iron pillow block, giving you a bolt-down support for transmission shafts that keeps alignment and lubrication in place. The assembly is ready to sit on a flat base, so shaft work stays simple and the insert can be swapped out without pulling the whole housing.
Reading the code helps you order the right piece. In UELP-2SM, the UEL portion denotes the insert bearing with set screws and sealing, the P stands for the split pillow block housing, and the 2 sets the shaft diameter. The SM suffix tells you which insert seal is used, so each letter and digit narrows down both size and sealing variant.
You will find these units on conveyors, belts, elevators, mixers, mills and other process equipment in food, chemical, cement and aggregate operations, as well as in animal feed plants, crushing circuits and material handling systems. Bolting the housing down speeds up shaft assembly and disassembly, and the insert can be replaced on its own.
Selection comes down to shaft diameter and insert mounting style. The SM seal keeps dust and moisture out, which suits areas with airborne particles. The base must be flat and rigid, the shaft aligned, and the set screws tightened to the recommended torque. Most inserts are lubricated for life, though severe duty may call for relubrication.
UELP mounted units can be swapped between brands such as SKF, FAG, NSK and NTN when the key dimensions line up: shaft diameter, hole spacing and height to center. On a replacement, confirm the full designation and housing dimensions. Send the original part number and we will point you to the matching equivalent.
