Browning 767566 Pillow Block Bearing 1-1/4 in Vps 100

Product Description

The BROWNING 767566 is a two-bolt pillow block bearing in the VPS 100 series, designed for shaft support applications in industrial and mechanical drive systems. The housing is cast iron, and the bearing insert is made from 52100 bearing steel with a straight bore and set screw locking. The 1-1/4 inch bore accommodates standard shaft diameters common in conveyor, fan, pump, and general power transmission equipment. Static load capacity is 3,493 pounds and dynamic load capacity is 5,782 pounds, making this unit well-suited for moderate-duty continuous operation up to 2,500 RPM. Installation is handled by mechanical technicians or maintenance professionals in commercial and industrial settings.

This pillow block is suited for use in fixed-shaft mounting applications across a wide range of equipment including conveyor systems, blowers, augers, and general industrial machinery. The two-bolt base pattern with 5 inches between mounting hole centers fits standard mounting plates and equipment frames. The base-to-center height of 1-7/8 inches and overall height of 3-11/16 inches provide clearance typical of mid-frame industrial assemblies. The 1-9/32 inch bearing length accommodates standard insert widths in this bore class.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by mechanical maintenance technicians or millwrights. Shut down and lock out all power to the shaft and drive system before removing or installing bearing assemblies, following LOTO procedures per OSHA and site safety requirements. Ensure the mounting surface is flat and the bearing is aligned with the shaft before tightening set screws to prevent premature wear. Do not use impact tools to seat the bearing housing, and verify shaft diameter tolerance before installation.
