Re: where to buy pillow-block bearings

Lee,

These bearings typically are inserted into a hole in a part which
provides mounting points. This could be integral to the machine; or
more typically as seen in this picture from the same seller. The
bearings you link to are the same--except for diameter--as those
found in this auction: Ebay item number 3802507121

Be careful of the plastic bodied bearings which this seller also
shows in another auction--the ones with metal plates. Unlike the one
you posted and my reply above, these plastic bodied type need the
housing--the hole inner surface-- to carry the loads of the bearing.
(the types above can carry most of the load with their steel hardened
and ground shell, so you can mount them only partially inserted into
soft material.

Hope this helps,

Ballendo
