Pillow block ball bearings are housed bearing units that support a rotating shaft parallel to the mounting surface, bolting directly into your equipment for fast, secure installation. xiros® pillow block ball bearings replace conventional metal units one-to-one while running completely dry — no grease, no oil, and no scheduled maintenance. Available in fixed or pivoting versions, xiros® pillow block ball bearings are up to 60% lighter and up to 40% more cost-effective than metal. Their dry-running design eliminates the need for external lubrication, so they stay clean and maintenance-free over the life of the bearing. They are also low-friction, corrosion-resistant, and dirt-resistant. Choose glass balls or stainless steel balls to match your application. Glass-ball versions are non-magnetic, making them a strong fit for sensitive environments, while stainless steel versions are seawater-resistant with low moisture absorption. FDA-compliant pillow block ball bearings for food, beverage, and other hygiene-critical applications are also available. Browse our full selection below!
