The Link-Belt PLB pillow block is a mounted bearing ready to install on a flat base, with the shaft supported at two points. It is used when the drive needs additional support or when the bearing cannot be mounted on the wall. MR Accesorios Industriales supplies this line in Buenos Aires, Argentina, with more than 80 years of experience in industrial distribution.

The PLB designation combines the housing type with the bearing size. The letters PLB identify the pillow block series; the numbers that follow take the code of the bearing it houses. For example, PLB22244 corresponds to a housing for a 22244 bearing, and PLB23048 for a 23048. So the numeric suffix is not a separate code: it is the bearing the housing receives. This logic repeats across the whole line and lets you order the assembly with a single reference.

These housings are found in belt conveyors, bucket elevators, mills, mixers and process equipment. In food, cement, mining and aggregate processing plants in Argentina, the pillow block solves intermediate supports where the shaft is long or the structure does not allow a flanged bearing. They are also chosen in industrial fans and large pumps, where the concrete or thick plate base is already planned for bolting the housing.

To select the housing, start from the bearing the shaft needs: diameter, load type and speed. The PLB housing must match that bearing and the available base. Check alignment between supports before tightening the bolts; an uneven base punishes the sealing and shortens bearing life. Lubrication is done through the built-in grease fitting, with the grease indicated for the temperature and environment. In dusty or humid areas, choose the appropriate sealing for the housed bearing.

Link-Belt housings interchange with other brands of mounted pillow blocks if the mounting dimensions and the housed bearing match. The key is to compare the center height, the hole spacing and the shaft diameter. A similar code is not enough: you must verify the bearing series. At MR Accesorios Industriales we tell you the compatible alternative or manufacture it to measure if you need a special configuration.

If you already have the housing code or the code of the bearing to be housed, send it by WhatsApp to MR Accesorios Industriales. We quote the exact reference or the equivalent option for your equipment. We can also advise you if you are replacing an existing housing and need to confirm mounting dimensions.
