The VTBS pillow block with SEALMASTER insert bearing is a foot-mounted assembly that combines an insert bearing unit with a cast iron housing. It is used to support rotating shafts in equipment where rigid attachment to the frame and correct alignment are required. The VTBS 200 series covers sizes for shafts of different diameters and is mounted with through bolts on the base. MR Accesorios Industriales supplies this line to plants and workshops in Argentina.

The VTBS designation follows the logic of the 200 series: the final number indicates the shaft diameter for which the insert is made. For example, VTBS-208 corresponds to a 1.1/2" shaft and VTBS-210 to 1.5/8". The suffixes that appear after the number, as in VTBS-214 or VTBS-216, indicate variations in sealing, locking, or housing material. To choose correctly, send us the full code shown on the nameplate or the equipment drawing.

These pillow blocks are found in belt conveyors, bucket elevators, mixers, mills, and process equipment. In Argentina they are widely used in the food, cement, mining, and aggregate processing industries. The cast iron housing withstands dust, moisture, and moderate loads, and the insert has an inner ring that is locked to the shaft with set screws, which simplifies assembly and replacement in the plant.

To select the pillow block, check the shaft diameter, the radial and axial load it will support, and the type of sealing required by the environment. If there is a lot of dust or water, an insert with reinforced lip seals is recommended. During assembly, rest the base on a flat, clean surface, align the shaft with the other support, and tighten the fastening screws evenly. Lubricate the insert according to the duty cycle and check the axial clearance before startup.

SEALMASTER VTBS pillow blocks are interchangeable with other foot-mounted brands that use the same shaft and hole standard. If the equipment has a pillow block from another brand, you can most likely replace it with an equivalent VTBS while keeping the base dimensions and height. For that, the best thing is to send us a photo or the code of the original assembly and we will indicate the compatible alternative.

If you need a VTBS pillow block for a particular piece of equipment, write to us on WhatsApp with the code or model shown on the machine. At MR Accesorios Industriales we will quote the exact reference or the equivalent option that best suits your application. We can also advise you on assembly and lubrication so that the bearing works under the correct conditions.
