Buying Guide
Choosing a Unit Bearing
What to confirm before ordering.
Step 01
Match shaft diameter precisely
Measure the shaft with a caliper rather than assuming from an old housing casting mark.
Step 02
Confirm mounting style
Flange, cartridge and hanger units suit different frame geometries, confirm which fits your application.
Step 03
Consider stainless for washdown
Standard cast iron units corrode quickly in wet or washdown environments.

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about unit bearings, answered by our counter team.
What is the difference between a unit bearing and a pillow block?
A pillow block is one specific style of unit bearing, mounted with two bolts on a flat base. This category covers the other housing styles: flanges, cartridges and hangers.
Can I service just the insert, not the whole housing?
Yes, if the housing is undamaged, the insert bearing alone can usually be replaced, since inserts are standardised to fit the same housing bore.
Do you stock hanger bearings for overhead shafting?
Yes, common shaft sizes for suspended horizontal shaft applications are stocked.
