Product Overview: The P 209 Pillow Block Housing
The P 209 is a robust and widely used pillow block housing designed for mounting insert bearings with a 45mm shaft diameter. As a key component in our P 200 Series, this unit provides secure and reliable support for rotating shafts on flat surfaces. It is typically paired with a UC 209 insert bearing to create a complete mounted bearing solution. Manufactured from high-strength cast iron, the P 209 is engineered for durability in various industrial environments.
As a leading supplier of industrial components, we ensure our P 209 housings meet industry standards for interchangeability and performance. This Bearing Housing is an essential part for creating simple, effective, and economical bearing arrangements. Its design allows for easy installation and maintenance, making it a popular choice across many sectors. Explore our range of Insert Ball Bearings to find the perfect match for your application.
Features of the P 209 Housing
- Solid Cast Iron Construction: Provides excellent strength, rigidity, and vibration damping for stable operation.
- Two-Bolt Mounting: Features two mounting holes in the base for straightforward and secure installation onto a supporting surface.
- Spherical Bearing Seat: The inner surface is spherically machined to accommodate the outer ring of an insert bearing, allowing for initial static misalignment.
- Relubrication Facility: Equipped with a grease nipple (zerk fitting) to allow for easy replenishment of lubricant, extending the service life of the bearing.
- Standardized Dimensions: Built to globally recognized dimensions, ensuring it is interchangeable with other manufacturers' P 209 units.
- Protective Design: Shields the insert bearing from external contaminants and physical impacts, enhancing reliability.
