Appleton SSP200 2 Inch Split Cartridge Block Bearing Industrial Mount

Description

Product Overview

The Appleton SSP200 split cartridge block bearing is engineered for demanding industrial environments where precision, durability, and ease of installation are paramount. Constructed from high‑grade steel alloys, the bearing provides exceptional load‑bearing capacity while resisting corrosion and wear over extended service periods. Its compact dimensions of 5 x 5 x 9 inches and lightweight profile of just 1.11 pounds make it an ideal choice for applications where space constraints and weight considerations are critical. The SSP200 model incorporates a split cartridge design that allows for straightforward maintenance and part replacement without disassembling the entire assembly, reducing downtime and maintenance costs. The bearing’s internal geometry is optimized to deliver smooth rotational movement, minimizing friction and heat generation, which translates into longer component life and consistent performance under varying load conditions.

In addition to its robust mechanical properties, the SSP200 features precision‑machined surfaces that ensure accurate alignment with mating shafts and housings. The split cartridge mechanism includes sealed lubrication chambers that retain grease or oil, providing continuous lubrication even in harsh environments. This sealed design protects the internal components from dust, moisture, and contaminants, further extending the bearing’s operational lifespan. The product complies with industry standards for mounted cartridge block bearings, making it a reliable replacement part for a wide range of equipment, from conveyor systems to heavy‑duty manufacturing machinery.

Usage

The SSP200 bearing is suited for a variety of industrial applications where precise rotational motion and load support are required. Typical use cases include motor shafts, gearboxes, conveyor rollers, and robotic arm joints. Its split cartridge design enables quick installation in confined spaces, allowing technicians to insert the bearing into existing housings without extensive disassembly. This feature is especially valuable in retrofit projects where downtime must be minimized.

Designed for both continuous and intermittent operation, the bearing performs reliably in environments with temperature fluctuations, vibration, and exposure to chemicals. It is commonly installed in manufacturing plants, processing facilities, and material handling equipment where consistent performance and low maintenance are essential. The SSP200’s compact size also makes it an excellent choice for portable equipment and mobile units that require robust bearing solutions without adding excessive weight.
