Threaded base bearing units for compact mounting in space-limited applications
316 stainless steel tapped base pillow block Extreme Bearings have two threaded holes on the base side, allowing easy mounting from the underside to the machine frame. They can be mounted vertically or horizontally to support rotating shafts. This design is compact, making it well suited for installations in tight spaces.

When to use a tapped base pillow block?
- When space is limited. Tapped base pillow blocks are compact and low-profile, making them ideal for machines where installation height is restricted.
- When you need a simple pedestal mount. They are designed to be bolted directly onto flat surfaces without extra adjustment mechanisms.
- When you want quick and easy installation. The tapped base pillow block design makes installation straightforward and cost-effective.

Load directions
Extreme tapped base pillow block bearings are intended for loads acting vertically towards the base plate support. Therefore, if the bearing housing is supported over its entire base, loads are limited only by the load limits of the bearing insert. If loads acting in other directions occur or if the housing is not supported over its entire base area, check that the magnitude of the load is permissible for the bolt assembly attached to the machine frame.
