Overview
PBC Linear IPPW10G is a twin (double-width) closed linear ball bearing pillow block designed for industrial linear motion applications. It features a 5/8″ ID (inner diameter) bearing inside an aluminum alloy housing. The unit offers low coefficient of friction for smooth operation, a heat-treated alloy steel shell for durability, a resin retainer to reduce noise, and standard double seals at no extra cost. The twin (double wide) design consists of a linear ball bearing inside an aluminum alloy housing, making it equivalent to two standard bearings mounted back-to-back for enhanced load distribution.
Key Features
- Closed shell design with 5/8″ ID bearing in aluminum alloy housing
- Low coefficient of friction for smooth operation with heat-treated alloy steel shell
- Resin retainer to reduce noise and standard double seals
- Twin/double size equal to two standard bearings mounted back-to-back
- Size interchangeable with industry standards and PBC Linear Simplicity plain linear bearing series
- Built-in self-alignment in all directions to compensate for shaft deflection and misalignment, with straight outer diameters providing ½° self-alignment
