Browning 767861 Pillow Block Bearing 1-11/16 in Cast Iron

Product Description

The BROWNING 767861 is a two-bolt pillow block bearing in the VPE 100 Series, designed to support rotating shafts in industrial and mechanical power transmission applications. It features a 1-11/16 inch straight bore with an eccentric lock collar, a cast iron housing, and a 52100 bearing steel ball insert. Static load capacity is 5,139 pounds and dynamic load capacity is 7,901 pounds. The unit measures 7-3/8 inches overall length and 4-1/4 inches overall height, making it a mid-frame block suited to moderate-to-heavy radial load conditions. Maintenance technicians and millwrights install this bearing during equipment builds and scheduled replacements.

This pillow block is used in conveyor systems, fans, pumps, agricultural equipment, and general industrial machinery where a grounded shaft support with standard bolt-down mounting is required. The two-bolt base pattern and 5-21/32 inch center-to-center mounting span fit common equipment frame layouts. Maximum rated speed is 2,000 RPM, making this unit appropriate for moderate-speed drive applications. The 2-1/8 inch base-to-center height positions the shaft centerline consistently above the mounting surface for alignment with standard drive components.

Key Features

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation pillow block for industrial shaft sizes of 1-11/16 inches, consistent with VPE 100 Series bearing applications in conveyor, fan, and pump drive systems.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by millwrights or qualified mechanical technicians. De-energize and lock out all drive equipment before mounting or replacing the bearing. Align the shaft and pillow block to minimize angular and parallel misalignment before fully torquing the mounting fasteners. Set the eccentric lock collar in the direction of shaft rotation and secure it before returning the unit to service.
