Thomson: Self-lubricating pillow blocks

Thomson’s “Lube for Life” Self-Lubricating Linear Bearing Pillow Blocks eliminate lubrication systems and provide continuous bearing lubrication.

Jul 5, 2010

Available for open or closed pillow block assemblies, Lube for Life can be ordered as an option with Super Ball Bushing® Bearing and Super Smart Ball Bushing® Bearing Pillow Blocks. They come as a complete assembly for new applications, or in a retrofit kit for existing non self-lubricating pillow block assemblies.
