Rexnord: power transmission solutions for Argentine industry

Rexnord is a recognized brand in the world of power transmission and material handling. Its product line includes mounted bearings, housings, spherical roller bearings and friction bushings, among other critical components for industrial equipment. At MR we distribute the Rexnord line, with over 2,600 references including housings, spherical roller bearings, Y-housings with insert bearing, friction bushings and insert bearings.

Rexnord products stand out for their robust design and ability to operate in demanding conditions. Rex mounted bearings, for example, combine a high-quality bearing with a cast iron or stamped steel housing, which facilitates mounting and alignment on shafts. This makes them ideal for applications such as conveyors, elevators, fans and processing equipment.

If you are looking for spare parts or components for maintenance, at MR we quote the exact reference. We work with the Rexnord line and can indicate the appropriate alternative for your application. Send us the code, size or a photo of the part via WhatsApp or email.

Rexnord housings are mounted bearing units that include an insert bearing and a cast iron or steel housing. They are used to support rotating shafts and absorb radial and axial loads. Within this subcategory, MR distributes 2,389 references, including codes such as ZA6107, ZA6206 and ZB2308.

These housings come in different configurations: pillow block, flange, take-up and cartridge. Each responds to a specific mounting need. For example, pillow block housings are the most common for horizontal shafts, while flange types are used on walls or vertical structures. The ZA and ZB series from Rexnord are widely used in Argentine industry due to their interchangeability and spare parts availability.

When choosing a housing, it is key to verify the shaft diameter, load and operating conditions. At MR we help you identify the correct model. Send us the code of your current housing or the shaft dimensions and we will quote the replacement.

Rexnord spherical roller bearings are spherical roller bearings that accept very high radial loads and axial loads in both directions. Their self-aligning design compensates for shaft misalignment and structure deflections, making them indispensable in heavy equipment such as mills, rotary kilns, conveyor belts and road machinery.

In this subcategory, MR distributes 119 references, including 2315U, 9200U and 5303U. The suffix U in the Rexnord nomenclature indicates a bearing with machined cage and special heat treatment for high-demand applications. These bearings are usually mounted in pillow block or flange housings of the same brand.

If your equipment uses Rexnord spherical roller bearings, it is important to respect the internal clearance and recommended lubrication. At MR we quote the exact bearing according to the code engraved on the ring. Send us a photo of the bearing or the part number and we will respond shortly.

The Y-housing with insert bearing is a compact and economical solution for transmission shafts in agricultural, food and material handling applications. It consists of a Y-shaped cast iron housing (also called pillow block with flange) and an insert bearing with extended inner ring and locking by set screws or eccentric collar.

MR distributes 106 references of this type, including P4B-203-T, P2B-208-T and P2B-307-T. The letter P indicates cast iron housing, the following number the load series, and B the seal type. The suffix T corresponds to a bearing with extended inner ring and triple-lip seal, ideal for dusty or humid environments.

These housings are easy to install and replace, reducing downtime. If you need a Rexnord Y-housing, contact us via WhatsApp or email with the housing code or shaft size. We will quote the exact reference or a compatible alternative.

Rexnord friction bushings are cylindrical bushings made of self-lubricating or low-friction materials, such as sintered bronze, technical polymers or filament composites. They are used in joints, pivots and low-speed shafts where a ball or roller bearing is not justified.

MR distributes 14 references of Rexnord friction bushings, including 701-66008-040, 701-66024-096 and 701-66004-024. These codes correspond to rolled filament bushings with specific dimensions in inches. They are lightweight, corrosion-resistant and in many cases do not require external lubrication.

When replacing a bushing, it is important to measure the inner diameter, outer diameter and length. If you do not have the code, send us the measurements or a photo of the worn bushing. At MR we will indicate the appropriate Rexnord reference for your application.

The Y-bearing (insert) is a rigid ball bearing with spherical outer ring, designed to be mounted in pillow block, flange or take-up housings. Its convex outer ring allows it to self-align within the housing, compensating for small shaft misalignments. Fixing to the shaft can be by set screws, eccentric collar or adapter sleeve.

MR distributes 11 references of Rexnord insert bearings, such as 3107U, 3315U and 3207U. The suffix U indicates that the bearing has a special seal and reinforced cage. These inserts are interchangeable with housings of the same series, which facilitates maintenance.

If your Rexnord housing has a damaged bearing, often it is enough to replace the insert and keep the housing. At MR we quote the exact Y-bearing according to the code engraved on the outer ring or the housing number. Contact us via WhatsApp or email.

At MR, based in Buenos Aires, Argentina, we distribute the complete Rexnord line for power transmission. We work with housings, spherical roller bearings, Y-housings with insert, friction bushings and insert bearings, among others. Our technical team can help you identify the correct reference for your application.

To get a quote, send us via WhatsApp or email the product code (for example, ZA6107 or 2315U), the shaft size or a photo of the part. With that information we will respond shortly with the quote and available alternative. You don't need to be an expert: we guide you in the selection.

Remember that correct identification of the bearing or housing avoids costly errors and unnecessary downtime. If you have doubts about compatibility or replacement, contact us. At MR we advise you without obligation and quote the Rexnord solution your equipment needs.
