The LINK-BELT series 6600 pillow block is a split cast iron housing that mounts on a bedplate and supports the bearing in power transmission applications. It is used when the shaft needs an additional support separate from the drive machine, for example in conveyors, mills, pumps and process equipment. MR Accesorios Industriales carries this line as an official brand and advises you on choosing the correct code according to the shaft diameter and the fastening type.

The designation of these brackets is read in blocks: PLB identifies the split pillow block family, the number that follows indicates the housing size and the letter M corresponds to the fastening type or mounting variant. The final number indicates the shaft diameter in millimeters or its equivalent depending on the series. For example, PLB68M40R and PLB68M45R share the same body but change the shaft diameter; PLB68M60R and PLB68M65R follow the same logic. The suffix R distinguishes the replacement version or the seal material, depending on the case.

In Argentine industry, these brackets appear in belt and chain conveyors, bucket elevators, mixers, flour mills, food plants and packaging lines. They are also found in mining, cement and aggregate processing equipment, where dust and load are demanding. Being pillow blocks, they allow aligning the shaft independently of the main frame and absorbing small misalignments. MR Accesorios Industriales carries them for replacement and new projects throughout the country.

To select the bracket, take into account the shaft diameter, the radial and axial load it must withstand, and the sealing type required according to the environment. In applications with dust or moisture, a lip seal or double lip seal is advisable; in high-temperature areas, verify the lubrication and the internal clearance of the bearing. Mounting is done on a flat, rigid surface, with the anchor bolts properly tightened and the shaft aligned before final fastening. Lubrication must be renewed according to the duty cycle and the type of grease.

The series 6600 pillow blocks are interchangeable with other brands that use the same mounting standard and shaft diameter. When requesting a quote, it is advisable to compare the center height, the distance between holes and the fastening type, not just the code. If the original bracket is not available, a compatible alternative within the same series or from another brand that MR carries can be evaluated. Interchangeability depends on the critical mounting dimensions and the load capacity of the housed bearing matching.

To move forward with the quote, send via WhatsApp the complete code shown on the equipment or on the bracket plate, for example PLB68M70R or PLB68M80R. If you do not have it at hand, provide the shaft diameter, a photo of the mounting and the main dimensions. At MR Accesorios Industriales we will quote the LINK-BELT bracket you need or indicate the compatible alternative. We handle technical inquiries and orders from all over the country.
