Having workable, reliable bearings on your machinery’s moving parts can reduce friction and help dissipate radial and axial loads.

Pillow Block Bearings

Pillow block bearings are some of the most commonly used bearing types in industrial settings.

The mounting of a pillow block is secured to a solid base, allowing rolling elements to operate while remaining stationary in place. These work best with high loads or high speeds and they are fabricated to be relatively corrosion resistant.

Taper-Lock & Flange Bearings

Taper-lock bearings support inner tapered rings that are fitted into a tapered sleeve bearing. These are designed to work with large vertical and horizontal forces, such as wheels and vehicle operations.

Flange bearings hold inner bushings in place, allowing the inner bearing to operate while being held stable. These housings dissipate thrusting and hold the bearings securely in place.

Two & Four-Bolt Design Bearings

Two and four-bold bearings are designed to create a solid base to bear larger loads and longer shafts. West River carries two and four-bolt designs, but we can order specific three-bolt housings if necessary.

We also carry split and solid housing styles with various sizes available in stock.
