The Link-Belt BP-LB6800 series mounted pillow block is an assembly that combines an insert bearing with a pillow housing, ready to mount on a bedplate or structure. It is used to guide rotating shafts in transmission, conveying and process equipment, where a robust unit with simple alignment is required. MR Accesorios Industriales sells this line as an official brand and advises you on choosing the right variant for your application.

The designation of the BP-LB6800 series is read in blocks: BP indicates pillow block, LB corresponds to the Link-Belt line and 6800 identifies the family of housings and insert bearings. Series codes such as BP-LB6863F, BP-LB6872F and BP-LB6879F add a number that defines the size and suffixes that may indicate the type of sealing or the insert configuration. To correctly interpret each reference, it is best to consult the series table or send us the complete code.

These housings are used in a wide variety of industries in Argentina: food and beverage plants, material handling, steel, cement, water treatment and process equipment in general. They are common in belt conveyors, bucket elevators, mixers, pumps and fans, where the pillow housing facilitates mounting on metal or concrete structures. Their design allows absorbing radial loads and some axial thrust, depending on the insert bearing they incorporate.

To select the correct housing, take into account the shaft diameter, the type of load and the environmental conditions. Sealing is key: in environments with dust, humidity or frequent washdowns, reinforced protection is advisable. Also check the internal clearance and the system for fixing the insert to the shaft (set screws, adapter sleeve or eccentric). During mounting, ensure careful alignment and adequate lubrication; poor alignment accelerates wear of the bearing and the housing.

Mounted pillow blocks are interchangeable between different brands as long as the main dimensions match: center height, distance between fixing holes, shaft diameter and insert type. Link-Belt maintains its own nomenclature, but equivalents from other firms exist on the market. If you need to replace an existing housing, the most practical approach is to compare the critical measurements or send us a photo of the nameplate to identify the compatible alternative.

At MR Accesorios Industriales we sell the Link-Belt line and have more than 80 years of experience in the field. If you already have your housing code or the equipment model, send it to us by WhatsApp and we will quote it promptly. We will also indicate the compatible alternative if you are looking for a specific variant.
