Let's not actually. Let's talk about bearings instead.

Anyone know if the pillow block 4253-012 is self-aligning?

Thanx

Diesel,

Yes they are, naturally the bearing is tight in the housing but they will align.

Thanks Admin.

Are they a ball race? It's not that clear from the website.

So it's a spherical ball race then?

Ben,

They are basically the same as our bearing inserts (radial ball bearing). The outer bearing surface and the inner housing surface are both spherical for self aligning. Hopefully that helps.
