The SEALMASTER TB-T is a mounted bearing assembly that pairs an insert bearing with a pillow block housing. It supports shafts in equipment where alignment and steady support are needed, such as belt conveyors, fans, mixers and process machinery.

The TB-T code tells you what you are looking at. TB marks the pillow block family with insert bearing. The number after it is the shaft diameter the unit is sized for. RT is a construction variant within the series. So TB-20RT and TB-32RT are two sizes in the same line, each with a different shaft diameter. Once you know this pattern, you can find the reference you need faster.

These pillow blocks show up in belt conveyors, bucket elevators, mills, agitators and aggregate processing equipment. They also run in food, chemical and bottling plants, where cleaning and washdown call for housings that hold up. The pillow block format mounts on beds or metal structures and lets you replace the insert without pulling the whole shaft, which cuts maintenance downtime.

To choose the right unit, start with the shaft diameter, then look at the load type (radial, axial or combined) and the environment. The insert seal determines how well the bearing handles dust, water or chemical agents. In wet areas or where washdown is frequent, reinforced protection is worth considering. Use the lubrication the manufacturer specifies, align the pillow block with the shaft during assembly to avoid parasitic stresses, fasten it firmly to the base and adjust the insert correctly.

When you replace a TB-T pillow block, you may find equivalents across brands of mounted bearings. Interchangeability depends on mounting dimensions, shaft diameter and insert locking type. Series are not universally interchangeable, so compare the critical dimensions before substituting. If you need an alternative, we can point you to a compatible option for your application.

If you have the code or the shaft diameter, send it over WhatsApp or email and we will quote it. We supply the SEALMASTER line and can help you pick the correct reference or an equivalent. Share your equipment details and we will reply with the option that fits your mounting.
