Browning 767633 Pillow Block Bearing 0.5 Inch Id

Product Description

The BROWNING 767633 is a VPS 200 Series pillow block bearing designed to support rotating shafts in light-to-medium duty industrial and mechanical applications. It features a 0.5 inch straight bore with a set screw locking mechanism to secure the shaft in place. The cast iron housing provides rigidity and durability in typical plant and equipment environments. The bearing insert is manufactured from 52100 bearing steel, a high-carbon chromium alloy known for its load-bearing performance and fatigue resistance. Static load capacity is rated at 1,444 pounds and dynamic load capacity is rated at 2,611 pounds. Installation is performed by millwrights, maintenance mechanics, and HVAC equipment technicians working on belt-driven systems, fans, and blower assemblies.

The 767633 pillow block is suited for use in fan arrays, air handling units, belt-driven blowers, and general rotating equipment in both commercial and light industrial settings. The two-bolt mounting base spans 3.625 inches center-to-center, with an overall length of 4.875 inches and an overall height of 2.1875 inches. The base-to-center height of 1.188 inches accommodates standard shaft alignment configurations on fabricated and welded frames. Maximum operating speed is rated at 7,500 RPM, making it appropriate for most belt-driven HVAC fan and blower applications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified millwright or maintenance mechanic. De-energize and lock out all power to the equipment before removing or installing the bearing. Align the pillow block squarely on the mounting surface before tightening fasteners to avoid preloading the bearing insert. Torque fasteners per the equipment manufacturer's specifications and confirm shaft set screws are fully seated before returning the equipment to service.
