Moline Bearing Co. Fractional Bore Size Expansion E1000 2-Bolt Split Pillow Block Bearing
Designed for Thermal Growth and High-Performance Flexibility
The Moline Bearing Co. Fractional Bore Size Expansion E1000 2-Bolt Split Pillow Block Bearing is purpose-built for applications where thermal growth, shaft expansion, or structural movement must be managed without sacrificing performance. Engineered with an expansion (floating) bearing insert, this pillow block allows the shaft to move axially, preventing binding, misalignment, and premature wear in high-temperature or long-shaft systems.
Expansion Insert for Thermal Compensation
Smooth, Stress-Free Axial Movement
The expansion-style bearing insert is designed to absorb natural axial movement caused by heat, long shaft lengths, or changing operating conditions. This protects both the bearing and the connected equipment, making it ideal for:
-
Dryers and heat-processing equipment
-
Long conveyors and material handling lines
-
Rotating machinery with shifting loads or thermal cycling
Despite its floating design, the insert still provides strong radial load support and smooth rotational performance essential to industrial operations.
Split Housing for Fast Maintenance
Quick Access Without Shaft Removal
The 2-bolt split E1000 housing allows maintenance teams to inspect or replace the bearing insert without removing the shaft or disturbing nearby components. This dramatically reduces downtime and simplifies servicing—especially valuable in continuous-process environments. Built from cast iron or ductile iron, the housing offers exceptional durability, vibration resistance, and mounting stability in compact installations.
Precision Fit for Fractional Shaft Sizes
Reliable Alignment and Long-Term Performance
Designed for fractional inch shafts, this pillow block ensures a precise fit, reducing shaft wear and maintaining consistent performance across demanding applications.
