Description
The Trane BRG1099 is a pillow block bearing a type of bearing used to support a revolving shaft minimizing friction. It’s usually made from hard cast iron so it’s sturdy and lasts longer. Pillow block bearings are also a common application in HVAC equipment like blowers, fans, and compressors. The Trane bearing has a set of rolling elements such as ball bearings inside an inner housing. These rolling elements fit through the center of the shaft, which can rotate with little friction. The shaft is supported and aligned by the pillow block bearing mounted to a stable surface.
