Moline M3000 Even-Lok™ Expansion and Non-Expansion Pillow Block Bearings
The Moline M3000 Even-Lok™ series delivers premium shaft support, long service life, and unmatched reliability for demanding industrial and agricultural environments. Available in both 2-bolt and 4-bolt pillow block configurations, these bearings combine rugged cast iron construction with Moline’s patented Even-Lok™ concentric locking system—creating a high-performance solution designed for stability, strength, and ease of maintenance.
Even-Lok™ Concentric Locking for Superior Shaft Protection
The patented Even-Lok™ system provides a true 360-degree concentric grip around the shaft, eliminating the shaft scoring, fretting, and distortion that often occur with traditional set screw locking mechanisms. This even clamping force enhances stability in high-vibration or heavy-load applications, ensuring consistent performance and longer equipment life.
-
Expansion Style: Allows controlled axial movement to accommodate thermal growth in long shaft assemblies.
-
Non-Expansion Style: Locks the shaft firmly in place, providing precise, fixed positioning for maximum stability.
2-Bolt and 4-Bolt Housing Options
Moline offers the M3000 series in durable cast iron housings engineered for specific mounting requirements:
-
2-Bolt Pillow Block: Compact, easy to install, ideal for tight spaces and moderate-load applications.
-
4-Bolt Pillow Block: Provides greater strength, rigidity, and resistance to misalignment—perfect for heavy-duty machinery and high-impact conditions.
