Pillow Block Bearing
Pillow Block Bearing are mounted bearings that assist in providing load support for a rotatory shaft. Pillow Block Bearings are based on a mounting surface. The mounting surface of this bearing is on a plane and parallel offset to the axis of the shaft. The Pillow Block Bearing also includes mounting or fitting holes and spaces in the base or lower surface. These holes and spaces help in adjusting the bearing and mounting it easily.
Pillow Block Bearing is used in mechanical power transmission systems to support shafts and couplings. Although these bearings are unique, they are also recognized as “Pummel Blocks.” Both Pillow and Pummel have the same structure, but they differ based on their applications:
- Pillow Block Bearing [Use to carry light weights and loads]
- Pummel Bearing [Use to carry heavy weights and loads]

What is a Pillow Block Bearing?
The Pillow Block Bearings are a type of rotatory bearing. Like any other bearing, the purpose of Block bearings is to increase the working motion of a machine or an appliance. These bearings are a part of different machines and appliances.
A Pillow Block Bearing is a bearing that is based on housing and different types of bearings. Pillow Blocks have the capability of replaceable bearings. These replaceable bearings are also recognized as insert bearings. Following are the different types of bearings that are inserted in the Pillow Block Bearing:
- Ball Bearings (used in ATMs, Bicycles, and machinery where high-speed performance is needed)
- Roller Bearings (Heavy equipment and machinery, agriculture and automobile industry uses the roller bearing for efficient working)
- Spherical Roller Bearings
- Cylindrical Roller Bearings
- Tapered Roller Bearings
- Needle Roller Bearing
- Hydrodynamic Bearings (majorly used in engines and power plants, and other machines)
- Plain Bearings
What are Pillow Block Bearings used for?
Pillow Block Bearings are used to support the rotating shaft with the assistance of a compatible bearing.
The Pillow Block Bearings are majorly applicable in Mechanical Power Transmission Systems to strengthen couplings and shafts.
They are used to reduce the friction in the machinery to the least possible amount and improve their working efficiency.
How do Pillow Block Bearings work?
These bearings are generally housed bearings having a mounting surface. The mounting surface is parallel to the shaft. The shaft is slightly perpendicular to the mounting screws. When the shaft is fitted in the bearing, it starts to function and rotate the load affecting it.
These bearings support a rotating shaft and are made of cast iron or steel to make them strong and durable. The mounting or housing surface of the bearing is fitted on a plain surface to set up the Block Bearing properly. These bearings kept the Outer Ring of the inserted bearings stationary, providing the required rotating space or area to the Inner Ring.
The Pillow Block Bearings are divided into two basic types based on the structure of the housing of the bearing:
Split Type Block Housing:
It is a type of Pillow Block Bearing. As elaborated by its name, the type of Block Bearing in which the housing is splittable is called Split Type Block Housing. That is beneficial for bearing replacements and lubrications.
Un-Split Type Block Housing:
It is also a type of Block Bearing, but it is opposite to the Split Type of Block Housing. Because its housing is unsplittable is in a single solid piece that causes problems in replacing, cleaning, and lubricating the bearing.
