Plummer Block Housings help to form Bearing units, with Self-aligning Ball Bearings 8t Spherical RollerBearings. They permit flexibility in the choice of Bearing, location on Shaft, Seals 8t lubrication. Made onmodular principle using Cast lron HT 200 JlS 5501, KMTT Housings are available in a wide range ofsizes to suitvarious application requirements.
To allow slight adjustment in the position, KMTT Plummer Block Housings have two elongated holes foiattachment bolts. The Bearing seat in the Housing bore is designed for non-locating Bearing arrangementsBearing can move slightly in either direction to compensate Shaft elongation, which may happen due tothermal expansion.
low weight to strength ratio
ease of mounting and dismounting
high strength and rigidity
Generally Bearings used in the Plummer Blocks are lubricated with grease, and since it lasts for a longertime, Plummer Blocks do not have re-lubrication holes. However, Bearing performance should be periodicallymonitored to ascertain re-lubrication requirements.
Special Felt Seals are provided along with KMTT Plummer Block Housings, for use under normal operatingconditions. For more information on use of special Seals, please contact KMTT corperation.
Apart from the list of Plummer Block types presented in following pages, special types can also be developedto meet specific requirements. Technical information for such special Plummer Blocks which do not appearin our reqular production program, can be made available whenever required.
Rolling Contact Bearings can be categorized in many ways. One is based on the end use of Bearing e.g, Agricultural, Automotive, Industral ete. However, considering technical parameters & construction, there are two ways to classify Rolling Contact Bearings.
