The UCP pillow block with NTN insert bearing is a foot-mounted unit that combines a cast iron housing with an insert ball bearing, already mounted and lubricated. It is used to support rotating shafts in equipment where a compact solution with easy alignment is needed. The UCP series covers sizes for shafts from 12 mm to 40 mm, and at MR Accesorios Industriales we quote it on WhatsApp with the exact part number you need.

The UCP designation identifies the unit: U is the pillow block housing, C indicates the insert bearing with a set screw locking collar and P the split pillow block housing type. The number that follows — as in UCP-1M, UCP-2M or UCP-20M — is associated with the shaft diameter it accommodates. The M suffix corresponds to the variant with contact seal. Thus, UCP-3M and UCP-25M are units of the same family with different capacities.

These units are used in conveyors, belts, elevators, mixers, fans and packaging lines. In Argentina they appear frequently in food plants, cement plants, tanneries and metalworking shops, where the environment usually has dust or moisture. The cast iron housing and the sealed insert withstand those conditions well. They are also chosen for equipment running at moderate speeds and where the goal is to replace a rigid support with one that absorbs small misalignments.

To select correctly, take into account the shaft diameter, radial and axial loads, and the type of sealing the environment requires. The M suffix indicates contact seal, suitable if there is dust or liquids. During assembly, rest the base on a flat, clean surface, tighten the set screws of the insert onto the shaft and check alignment with a straightedge or laser. Lubricate according to the duty cycle and periodically check the play and the condition of the seals.

NTN UCP units are interchangeable with those of other brands that use the same dimensional nomenclature. If you have the part number from another brand, send it to us and we'll tell you the equivalent. We can also quote you the complete unit or the insert bearing separately, depending on what you need. The UCP series is standard on the market and is available in the most common sizes for shafts from 12 to 40 mm.
