Browning 767468 Pillow Block Bearing 1-3/8 in Cast Iron

Product Description

The BROWNING 767468 is a two-bolt pillow block bearing in the VPLS 200 Series, designed to support rotating shafts in industrial and mechanical drive applications. The bearing features a 1-3/8 inch straight bore with a set screw locking mechanism and a 52100 bearing steel insert housed in a cast iron block. It carries a static load capacity of 3,493 pounds and a dynamic load capacity of 5,782 pounds, making it well suited for moderate-to-heavy duty shaft support. The unit weighs 3.5 pounds and is a standard replacement or new-installation option for licensed millwrights, maintenance mechanics, and industrial service technicians.

This pillow block is used in conveyor systems, fan assemblies, pump mounts, and general power transmission setups found in commercial and industrial facilities. The two-bolt mounting pattern with 5 inch center-to-center hole spacing allows straightforward frame or baseplate attachment. The overall assembly measures 6-3/4 inches in overall length and 3-5/8 inches in overall height, with a base-to-center height of 1-13/16 inches. Maximum rated shaft speed is 4,000 RPM. This unit is appropriate for both new installations and replacement of worn or failed pillow block assemblies in comparable drive trains.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a licensed millwright or qualified maintenance mechanic. De-energize and lock out all drive equipment before removing or installing the bearing assembly per LOTO procedures. Align the shaft and housing carefully before tightening set screws to avoid bearing preload issues. Verify mounting surface flatness and bolt torque per the equipment manufacturer's specifications before returning the unit to service.
