AR-PRO Pillow Block Bearing UCP205-16 2-Pack Self‑Aligning Steel

Description

Product Overview

The AR-PRO UCP205-16 pillow block bearing is engineered for reliability in the most demanding industrial environments. Constructed with a high‑grade bearing steel insert, the bearing provides exceptional load‑carrying capacity while maintaining low friction. The housing is forged from solid cast iron, delivering a rigid, vibration‑dampening platform that resists wear and deformation over prolonged service life. With a 1‑inch bore and a self‑aligning feature, the unit automatically compensates for shaft misalignment, reducing stress on adjacent components and extending overall system longevity. The 2‑pack configuration offers cost‑effective redundancy, allowing users to replace or add bearings without downtime. Detailed specifications include a package dimension of 5.47 × 5.43 × 1.89 inches, a weight of 3.28 lb per unit, and compliance with industry standards for mounted pillow block bearings.

Usage

Designed for a broad spectrum of power transmission applications, the UCP205-16 excels in conveyor systems, gearboxes, and heavy‑duty machinery where consistent rotational motion is critical. Its self‑aligning capability makes it ideal for installations where shaft deflection or mounting tolerances are unavoidable, such as in agricultural equipment, mining conveyors, and manufacturing assembly lines. The robust steel insert tolerates high radial loads, while the cast‑iron housing provides thermal stability, making the bearing suitable for environments with temperature fluctuations and exposure to contaminants like dust or oil. Whether used by seasoned engineers in large‑scale facilities or by skilled DIY technicians upgrading a workshop setup, the bearing’s straightforward mounting design ensures a quick, secure fit with minimal tools required.
