Pillow block and mounted units from Western Bearing House
Mounted units combine a bearing with its housing, so they install quickly and keep the bearing protected. Our catalog lists Hoffmann-pattern self-aligning units in parallel bore (LSW / RLSW) and clamping sleeve and nut (LTW, MSW and MTW) types, in inch shaft sizes, for line shafts, conveyors and field machinery.
