Hi guys,

Sorry for this newbie question but I am wondering what kind of bearing housing it is in this picture?



Does it have a specific name? I'm trying to find one but don't really know what it's called.

Can anyone help? Thanks

 

I am not certain exactly what that is called, but it looks like some type of "mounted" bearing. I would suggest looking through McMaster-Carr's website to see if you can find anything similar. http://www.mcmaster.com/#standard-mounted-bearings/=le0zuy

 

This is (generically) called a "pillow block", an independent housing specifically meant to hold and position a bearing.
