The PEER GR series is a ball insert bearing with a spherical outer ring and an extended inner ring, intended for split or pillow block housings. It supports rotating shafts where a degree of self-alignment is useful. MR Industrial Accessories LLC supplies this line to customers throughout the United States and in several Latin American countries, quoting the exact part number you specify through WhatsApp or email.

Reading the GR code is straightforward: the base number places the insert within the series, and the digits after the hyphen give the bore in inches. Thus GR201-8 is a 1/2 inch bore, and GR205-16 is a 1 inch bore. The base numbers 201, 202, 204 and 205 cover the range of sizes. Provide the full part number and we will quote it.

Typical installations include conveyors, belts, mixers, fans and agricultural equipment, where the insert sits in a split, pillow block or flanged housing. The insert-and-housing arrangement lets maintenance staff replace the bearing without taking the whole assembly apart, which is useful when downtime matters.

When selecting, check three points: shaft diameter, locking method (set screw, eccentric or collar) and sealing. Open versions are available, as are contact-seal versions for dusty or damp conditions. Internal clearance and lubrication are set at the factory, but housing alignment should still be verified before mounting. Even with self-aligning capability, poor alignment reduces insert life.

Cross-brand interchange is common in this family. A PEER GR insert can replace other inserts of standardized dimensions when bore diameter, width and locking type agree. If you have a part number from another brand or an unidentified insert, send us the shaft diameter and a photo via WhatsApp or email, and we will point you to the compatible alternative.

MR Industrial Accessories LLC supplies the PEER line and also manufactures split plummer block housings, roller chains and sheaves. If a GR insert is needed for equipment that is down, send the part number and we will quote it promptly. We can also advise on the matching housing for that insert.
