The TB-T series pillow block with insert bearing is a mounted assembly that combines an insert bearing unit with a pillow block housing. It is used to support shafts in equipment that requires alignment and stable support, such as belt conveyors, fans, mixers and process machinery. MR Accesorios Industriales supplies this SEALMASTER line in Buenos Aires, Argentina, and advises you on choosing the right configuration according to shaft diameter and type of load.

The TB-T series designation is interpreted in parts: the letters TB identify the pillow block family with insert bearing, and the number that follows indicates the shaft diameter for which it is sized. The suffix RT corresponds to the construction variant within the series. Thus, for example, TB-20RT and TB-32RT are two specific sizes of the same line, with different shaft diameters. Knowing this logic allows you to quickly locate the reference you need within the catalogue.

In Argentine industry, these pillow blocks appear in belt conveyors, bucket elevators, mills, agitators and aggregate processing equipment. They are also found in food, chemical and bottling plants, where cleaning and washdown require resistant housings. The TB-T series, due to its pillow block format, is mounted on beds or metal structures and makes it easy to replace the insert without completely disassembling the shaft, which reduces maintenance downtime.

To select the correct pillow block, take into account the shaft diameter, the type of load (radial, axial or combined) and the environmental conditions. The insert's sealing defines the protection against dust, water or chemical agents: in humid environments or with frequent washdown, reinforced protection is advisable. Lubrication must be the one indicated by the manufacturer and assembly requires aligning the pillow block with the shaft to avoid parasitic stresses. Firm fastening to the base and correct adjustment of the insert extend the service life of the assembly.

When replacing a TB-T pillow block, it is common to find equivalences between different brands of mounted bearings. Interchangeability depends on mounting dimensions, shaft diameter and the type of insert locking. Not all series are interchangeable with each other, so it is advisable to compare the critical dimensions before substituting. If you need an alternative, at MR Accesorios Industriales we will indicate the option compatible with your application.

Send us the data of your equipment and we will reply with the solution that best fits your mounting.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I identify the shaft diameter of a TB-T pillow block?
The number that follows the letters TB indicates the shaft diameter in inches or millimeters, depending on the manufacturer's standard. In the examples TB-20RT and TB-32RT, the 20 and the 32 correspond to different shaft sizes. Verify the complete code and the unit so you do not get confused.
What does the RT suffix mean in the TB-T series?
The RT suffix identifies a construction variant within the TB-T series, which may refer to the type of sealing, the insert locking method or a specific characteristic of the housing. To confirm the exact configuration of your reference, consult us with the complete code.
Can I replace a TB-T pillow block with one from another brand?
In many cases yes, as long as the mounting dimensions, shaft diameter and locking system match. Interchangeability is not universal: the critical dimensions must be compared. If you send us the original code, we will indicate the compatible alternative.
