Browning 767424 Pillow Block Bearing 2 Inch Id Cast Iron

Product Description

The BROWNING 767424 is a two-bolt pillow block bearing in the VPLS 200 Series, designed for industrial shaft support applications in conveyor systems, pumps, fans, and general power-transmission equipment. It carries a 2-inch straight bore with a set-screw locking mechanism and a 52100 bearing steel ball insert housed in a cast iron body. Static load capacity is 6,601 pounds and dynamic load capacity is 9,752 pounds, making it suitable for moderate-to-heavy radial loads. Overall assembled dimensions are 8-13/16 inches in length and 4-29/32 inches in height. Licensed millwrights, maintenance mechanics, and industrial technicians are the primary installers for this type of bearing unit.

This pillow block is suited for standard industrial installations where a 2-inch shaft requires a fixed, grounded bearing support point. Typical applications include horizontal shaft mounting on production machinery, material-handling equipment, and agricultural drives. The VPLS 200 Series is a straight-bore, set-screw design, meaning it is best matched to lightly loaded shaft ends or applications where shaft removal is infrequent. Mounting centers are fixed at 6-15/16 inches between bolt hole centers, and the base-to-center height is 2-7/16 inches, both of which must be verified against the equipment frame before installation.

Key Features

• Cast iron housing provides rigidity and durability in industrial environments
• 6,601-pound static load capacity and 9,752-pound dynamic load capacity
• Maximum operating speed of 2,500 RPM
• Two-bolt base mount with 6-15/16-inch center-to-center spacing for straightforward frame attachment

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct installation pillow block bearing for industrial power-transmission applications requiring a 2-inch straight bore, two-bolt mount, and VPLS 200 Series fitment.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified millwright or maintenance technician. Lock out and tag out all power to the equipment before removing or mounting any bearing unit. Ensure the shaft is clean, free of burrs, and within tolerance before seating the bore, then tighten set screws to the equipment manufacturer's specified torque sequence. Verify shaft alignment across all bearing points before returning the system to service, as misalignment significantly reduces bearing service life.
