EXS is the pillow block form factor: a base with a central bore height suitable for belt lines, jackshafts, and process machinery mounted on skids. It is one of the most requested housings in food and marine applications because it simplifies base-plate drilling and alignment.
For sizes where shaft centre height (H1) is part of selection, use the configurator filters that apply to pillow and take-up families. This ensures the ordered unit matches your conveyor or coupling geometry.

EXS – dimension sketch (J and H1)
J is the base length (mm) between the two bolt hole centres. H1 is the shaft centre height (mm) above the mounting surface — essential for coupling and conveyor alignment.
