LINK-BELT PL series pillow blocks are cast housings that support 200 series mounted bearings. They are used to support rotating shafts in power transmission, conveying and process equipment, where a rigid base and a self-aligning bearing are required. MR Accesorios Industriales supplies this line with the backing of more than 80 years in the Argentine industrial sector.

The PL series designation is read in blocks: the letters PL identify the pillow block; the first number indicates the base size; the letter S corresponds to the split housing type; the second number indicates the locking variant; and the final letters E define the sealing. The examples PL3S2E20E, PL3S2E26E, PL3S2E32E and PL3S2E36E show how the shaft diameter changes as the final number varies. To order the correct replacement, provide the complete part number exactly as it appears on the nameplate or on the equipment drawing.

These pillow blocks are used in belt conveyors, bucket elevators, mixers, mills, centrifugal pumps and packaging lines. In Argentina you will find them in food plants, cement plants, tanneries, meat processing plants and mining facilities, where the environment often has dust, humidity or frequent washdowns. The 200 series is the medium-duty section and covers general-purpose shafts in power transmission. If the equipment operates with moderate loads and normal speeds, this family is usually the direct-mount option.

To select the right pillow block, take into account the shaft diameter, the type of load (radial, axial or combined) and the environmental conditions. The E sealing protects against dust and splashes; if there is pressurized water or fine particles, additional protection should be evaluated. Installation requires a flat base, alignment with the shaft and even tightening of the anchor bolts. Lubrication must be the one specified for the housed bearing and renewed according to the duty cycle. Poor alignment accelerates wear on the seal and on the bearing itself.

Regarding interchangeability, 200 series pillow blocks are available under different brands with standardized dimensions, but casting tolerances and center height may vary. Before replacing a LINK-BELT unit with another brand, compare the shaft diameter, the distance between anchor holes and the center height. If space is critical, it is best to keep the original geometry. MR Accesorios Industriales advises you so that the compatible alternative does not compromise the installation or the service life of the bearing.
