Browning 767376 Pillow Block Bearing 1-1/4 in Id Cast Iron

Product Description

The BROWNING 767376 is a cast iron pillow block bearing designed for industrial and mechanical power transmission applications. This unit carries the VPLE-220 designation and features a 1-1/4 inch bore with an eccentric lock collar for secure shaft retention. The bearing insert is manufactured from 52100 steel, a high-carbon chromium alloy selected for its fatigue resistance and load capacity. Static load capacity is rated at 3,493 pounds and dynamic load capacity reaches 5,782 pounds. Overall assembly dimensions measure 6-3/4 inches in overall length and 3-5/8 inches in overall height. Licensed millwrights, maintenance mechanics, and industrial technicians typically install this type of unit.

This pillow block is suited for general industrial machinery, conveyor systems, agricultural equipment, and HVAC fan shaft applications where a two-bolt mount configuration is required. The 5-inch center-to-center mounting hole spacing and 1-13/16 inch base-to-center height allow straightforward bolt-down installation on standard channel or plate bases. The unit is packaged individually and ships as a single assembly ready for installation without additional hardware beyond mounting fasteners.

Key Features

• Eccentric lock collar for positive shaft retention without set screws damaging shaft surface
• 52100 steel bearing insert for high fatigue resistance under sustained radial loads
• 3,493 pound static load capacity and 5,782 pound dynamic load capacity
• Cast iron housing provides rigidity and resistance to deformation under load
• 5-inch mounting hole center-to-center spacing for standard two-bolt base mounting
• 1-13/16 inch base-to-center height for consistent shaft alignment with matched units

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation pillow block bearing for two-bolt mount applications requiring a 1-1/4 inch bore diameter and eccentric locking collar.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified millwright or maintenance mechanic. Shut down and lock out all rotating equipment before removing or installing bearing units per OSHA lockout/tagout requirements. Align both bearing units along the shaft before final torquing of mounting bolts to prevent preload misalignment. Lubricate the bearing insert per the manufacturer grease specification before placing the unit in service.
