About the Croft NSO Angular Plummer Blocks

The Croft NSO Angular Plummer Block range is specifically engineered for applications requiring reliable shaft support on inclined or angular mounting surfaces. Designed with a fully split cast iron housing and precision-machined gunmetal bearing inserts, these bearing units provide exceptional durability, easy maintenance, and long service life across a wide range of industrial applications. As an experienced NSO plummer block manufacturer, Bowman supplies high-quality angular bearing solutions that simplify maintenance while delivering dependable performance in demanding operating environments.

Unlike conventional plummer blocks designed for horizontal mounting, the Croft NSO Angular Plummer Block is manufactured to accommodate inclined installations where standard bearing housings may not provide optimal support. The fully split housing and replaceable split bush design allow maintenance personnel to inspect or replace bearing inserts without removing the shaft or dismantling surrounding equipment, significantly reducing maintenance time and operational downtime.

Each angular plummer block bearing is available with an almost unlimited range of bore sizes to suit shaft diameters from 25 mm to 200 mm (1″ to 8″). Customers can specify bearings with either 1½ or 2 shaft diameters through, enabling the unit to be matched precisely to application requirements. The robust cast iron housing provides structural strength, while the gunmetal split bush delivers excellent wear resistance and dependable plain bearing performance.

Designed as an angular split brass bearing, the NSO Series combines the advantages of replaceable gunmetal inserts with the flexibility of an inclined mounting design. This makes it particularly suitable for specialised machinery where shaft alignment, installation geometry, or equipment layout requires an inclined mount plummer block rather than a conventional horizontal housing.

The angular bronze bearing housing design is widely used in heavy industrial equipment, conveyors, processing machinery, marine systems, agricultural equipment, and specialist engineering applications requiring durable plain bearing support on inclined shafts. As a trusted supplier of Croft angular bearing UK products, Bowman manufactures every NSO unit to stringent engineering standards, ensuring consistent quality and long-term reliability.

Whether specified for new machinery or replacement applications, the Croft NSO Angular Plummer Block range offers a serviceable, heavy-duty bearing solution with fully replaceable inserts, flexible bore sizing, and robust construction. For customers seeking dependable NSO Series Bearing UK solutions, Bowman delivers proven engineering expertise and high-performance angular bearing assemblies built for demanding industrial environments.
