Thomson SSUPB16 Linear Guide Round Shaft Pillow Block Housing Only

Description:

The Thomson SSUPB16 Linear Guide Round Shaft Pillow Block Housing is used in precision linear motion systems to support and mount 1.000-inch Super Smart Ball Bushing® linear bearings on end-supported round shaft assemblies. Commonly installed in CNC machines, industrial automation equipment, robotics, packaging machinery, semiconductor equipment, and material handling systems, this precision-machined aluminum housing provides a rigid, self-aligning mounting platform and is supplied as the housing only without the linear bearing insert. Maintenance teams and system integrators use this part for repair, retrofit, expansion, or replacement of worn or damaged pillow block housings in inch linear shaft systems.

Applications:

The Thomson SSUPB16 pillow block housing is designed for end-supported Class L round shaft applications where an existing 1.000-inch Super Smart Ball Bushing® insert can be installed or replaced. It is widely used in CNC machinery, automated assembly systems, robotics, packaging equipment, semiconductor manufacturing, medical devices, inspection systems, and custom OEM automation requiring a durable aluminum housing with precise alignment and secure mounting.
