Description
The Trane BRG1550 is a pillow block ball bearing, which is a kind of bearings designated for the support of the shaft and a reduction of friction. It accommodates a normal ball bearing which in turn minimizes the friction between the shaft and the bearing. The pillow block aspect provides a rigid housing which maintains the orientation of the components and shields them from the environment. This type of bearing is usually found in equipment that is used in heating, ventilating and air-conditioning systems such as fan, blower and compressor. The sealed housing prevent dust and contaminants from getting into the bearing thus shortening its longevity.
