Roller Chain

Our major and highest selling product is the Pillow Block Bearing. Selling hundreds of thousands of these bearings a year makes it our best selling product line. Our pillow block bearings consist of two parts. First the housing, which in most cases is constructed of cast iron or pressed steel, it is the part of the unit that holds the bearing in position. Our cast iron housings come with solid bases and a grease fitting mounted at a 45-degree angle. The solid base is a standard that we have which isn't found everywhere. The solid base gives the cast iron housing a stronger foundation, which in turn gives it a longer life. The second part of the pillow block bearing unit consist of the bearing itself. Mounted inside the housing it can come with two setscrews for attaching to the shaft or with an eccentric locking (cam) collar. Our pillow block bearings come in sizes from 1/2"-3". These bearing units are mostly used to support a rotating shaft or helping the reduction of transmitted power. Check out our Pillow block bearings.

Two and Four Bolt Flange Bearings are another popular item for power transmission. They too are mostly found with the two components of cast iron housing and mounted bearing. The grease fitting is found on the side of the flange where re-lubing is convieant. The flange bearings are also found in sizes 1/2"-3" and they come in the styles of setscrew or eccentric (cam) locking. Check out our Two Bolt or Four Bolt Flanges.

If we had to rank a number two in the product line for us it would have to be our Disc Harrow Bearings. Our disc harrow bearings are made to withstand the heavy workload a disk can put on them. Made with triple lip seals (which help to keep dirt and mud out) and hardened steel our disc bearings will last multiple seasons. These bearings come is different styles, square bore, round bore, and flanged units. We have a complete line of these bearings so if you don't see the one for you just drop us a line and we will get it for you.

Take-up bearings (take up bearing) is an unusual style mounted bearing which consist of a bearing mounted in a housing which has groves in the side and a hole for a nut and bolt to fit. With this set up the take up bearing has the ability to be moved laterally wile the shaft is spinning. This function is critical for easy reposition of a bearing or creating tension on the shaft. Our take up bearings come in sizes 1/2" through 2-7/16".

Roller chain has for a long time been an important part of power transmission. You can find it in everything form bikes and go-karts to conveyor belts and earthmovers. From A-Z roller chain is popular way to get a job moving. Our roller chain is pre-stressed and stretched to insure a long life. All rollers are solid and heat-treated to make sure they will stay in place to give you reliability. Check out our Roller Chain.
