The PT Select from Rexnord is a mounted spherical roller bearing. A self-aligning bearing sits inside a housing that already includes the mounting holes, so the unit fastens straight onto the frame and keeps its alignment without machining. It suits applications where the shaft and the machine are not perfectly in line, or where the structure flexes, since the spherical element absorbs that misalignment. MR Industrial Accessories supplies this series to customers in the United States and Latin America.

The series carries a trade name rather than one universal part number. Each size has its own reference, so a quote request should include the shaft diameter and the housing style the equipment requires. If the old unit still shows its stamped code, send that code as it appears. Without a code, the shaft diameter plus a photo of the housing is usually enough to pin down the right variant. Our team answers quickly and can point you to a matching option.

Typical installations include belt and chain conveyors, bucket elevators, mixers, mills, screens and other process equipment. Plants handling food, cement, grain and aggregates favor these units because they stand up to dust, moisture and impact. Medium-duty fans and pumps also use them, with flanged or pillow block housings that simplify anchoring to the frame.

Selection starts with the housing: pillow block, flanged, take-up or wall mount, depending on how the unit anchors. Sealing comes next. A more closed protection is the better choice where fine dust or washdown is present, while a cleaner room may not need it. Grease of medium consistency is the usual lubricant, replenished according to operating hours and temperature. During installation, seat the housing on a flat surface, tighten the bolts in a cross pattern, and confirm the shaft turns freely before connecting the transmission.

Mounted bearing series from different manufacturers can interchange when three things line up: shaft diameter, housing type and shaft locking method, whether set screws, a taper bushing or an adapter. Comparing only the code is not enough. If the replacement housing differs in height or hole spacing, a new flange or base can sometimes be adapted. Send the code or size through WhatsApp or email and we will help identify the equivalent.

Before ordering, gather the shaft diameter, the housing type and, when possible, a photo of the part in place. That information identifies the correct PT Select variant and prevents changes at the last minute. Contact us with the code or model you need and we will prepare your quote.
