Bearing Pedestals FAQs

What is a bearing pedestal?

A bearing pedestal is a heavy-duty mounted bearing housing designed to support large shafts and very high radial and axial loads. It is typically used with spherical roller bearings or toroidal roller bearings in demanding industrial applications.

How is a bearing pedestal different from a pillow block?

Bearing pedestals are larger, stronger, and more rigid than pillow blocks.
They are designed for heavy industry, larger shaft diameters, and severe operating conditions, while pillow blocks are used for light to medium-duty applications.
