Twin Plain Linear Bearing Pillow Block - PWN08 1/2″ Open, Self-Aligning, Precision ID

Twin plain linear bearing pillow block, open, with a 1/2" precision ID. This self-aligning, mountable aluminum alloy pillow block bearing uses a twin design for added bearing surface and shaft support. For self-alignment, the inserted open-shelled Simplicity® plain bearing can tilt slightly within the housing to compensate for up to 1/2° misalignment from centerline in all directions, helping reduce binding from minor shaft deflection or parallel shaft misalignment. A bonded, self-lubricating FrelonGOLD® liner provides oil-free, maintenance-free motion in high temperatures, dirt, contamination, vibration, and shock loads. Eight pre-positioned mounting holes allow direct fastening to machinery or support structures.
