Igus Maintenance Free Pedestal Pillow Block Bearing 16 mm Inside Diameter Thermoplastic Composite KSTM-16

Igus KSTM-16 Maintenance Free Pedestal Pillow Block Bearing is designed for industrial rotary and linear applications requiring reliable performance with low maintenance. It features a thermoplastic composite housing known as Igumid G that is impact resistant yet rigid, providing durability in harsh operating environments.

This pillow block bearing supports high sliding speeds reaching 1.5 m/s for rotary and up to 8 m/s for linear motions, enabling smooth mechanical operation. Its self-lubricating, dry-running IGUBAL® design eliminates the need for grease or oil, making it ideal for abrasive and dirty conditions where contamination is a concern.

The product's light weight, approximately 20% that of comparable steel units, improves ease of installation and reduces mechanical load on assemblies, while its high rigidity ensures durability under varying loads. It can operate effectively within a temperature range of -30°C to +80°C, accommodating diverse industrial climates.

Key dimensional attributes include a 16 mm inside diameter bore, 18 mm center height, 6.6 x 12 mm mount hole size, 86 mm length, 21 mm depth, and 60 mm mount hole center-to-center spacing. The bearing unit includes two mounting bolts for secure fixation.

Igus pillow block bearings such as the KSTM-16 are widely used in sectors including manufacturing machinery, conveyor systems, packaging equipment, and automation technologies. Their maintenance-free, corrosion-resistant construction suits them for challenging factory, laboratory, and outdoor industrial applications.
