The Link-Belt PLB series pillow block is a mounted bearing ready to install on machine and equipment structures. It is used when the transmission needs a rigid and aligned support, with the bearing already incorporated in a cast iron housing. MR Accesorios Industriales supplies this line for plants, workshops and equipment manufacturers in Buenos Aires, Argentina, and advises you on choosing the correct part number for your application.

The PLB series designation is read in blocks. The letters PLB identify the pillow block family; the following two digits, as in PLB66 or PLB68, indicate the housing size and load capacity. The number after the M indicates the shaft size: for example, PLB66M220FR and PLB66M260FR correspond to larger diameter shafts, while PLB68M90FR and PLB68M100FR cover smaller sizes. The FR suffix defines the sealing and locking configuration of the bearing inside the housing.

These pillow blocks are used in belt conveyors, bucket elevators, mills, mixers, pumps and industrial fans. In Argentina they are common in food, cement, mining and aggregate processing plants, where the environment has dust, humidity or vibration. They are also used in material handling equipment and in process lines that require a robust and easily replaceable support.

To select the pillow block, take into account the shaft diameter, radial and axial load, and the type of sealing required by the environment. The PLB series allows mounting on flat surfaces with bolts, and it is advisable to verify alignment between supports to avoid stress on the bearing. Lubrication must be the one indicated for the working temperature, and the FR seal helps retain lubricant and block contaminants. Follow the manufacturer's instructions for tightening and commissioning.

Link-Belt PLB series pillow blocks are interchangeable with other brands of mounted bearings of similar configuration, provided that shaft dimensions, mounting height and hole spacing match. When requesting a quote, provide the complete part number and working conditions; MR Accesorios Industriales will indicate the compatible alternative or we manufacture it to measure if it is a special pillow block.
