bearing

bearing

(OP)
Hi
I am hoping someone may be able to help
I have a shaft on the end of a roller that is 100 mm
in diameter and I need a bearing/pillow block to fit it.
The problem is the area where the bearing goes is
8" wide by 8" high by 4" thick.
I have been throught most of the books and all are
too big.

Fairly heavy load,slow turning,near salt water and sea mud.
(sea wall roller on the back of a deep sea dragger)

We are now using SAE 660 bushings* in split blocks, but only getting 4-6 months out of the bushings

*bushing are 100 mm x 120mm x 95mm

take care
eddie

RE: bearing

No thrust loads?  If not, needle bearings are small for the radial loads they can handle.  You may need to build your own housing for them though.
