Thomson SPB32OPN Super Pillow Block

Thomson SPB32OPN Super Pillow Block

The Thomson SPB32OPN Super Pillow Block is a high-performance linear bearing solution designed for applications requiring precise and smooth linear motion. This open, self-aligning pillow block is engineered to accommodate 2-inch diameter shafts, making it ideal for continuously supported applications.

Key Features

• Self-Aligning Capability: Compensates for up to 0.5 degrees of misalignment, addressing inaccuracies in base flatness or carriage machining.
• High Load Capacity: Offers three times the load capacity or 27 times the travel life compared to conventional linear bearings.
• Low Friction: Maintains a constant coefficient of friction as low as 0.001, enabling the use of smaller, more cost-effective drive components.
• Lightweight and Durable Construction: Features wear-resistant, engineered-polymer retainers and outer sleeves that reduce inertia and noise, enhancing performance in high-speed applications.
• Adjustable Fit: Radially floating bearing plates allow for precise diametrical fit-up when installed in an adjustable housing, ensuring accurate and repeatable movement.
• High-Speed Operation: Supports travel speeds up to 10 feet per second without compromising load capacity.
• Integrated Seals: Equipped with double-acting seals and lubrication access, minimizing installation time and maintenance.
