About the DIN 505 Medium Duty Series DN5
The DIN 505 Medium Duty Bearing is a robust two-bolt plummer block designed to provide dependable shaft support, long service life, and simplified maintenance in medium-duty industrial applications.

As an experienced DIN 505 Plummer Block Manufacturer, Bowman supplies high-quality bearing assemblies that deliver reliable performance across a wide range of industrial environments.
Designed for grease-lubricated applications, the DIN 505 Medium Duty Bearing features a fully split housing that enables maintenance teams to inspect or replace the bearing bush without removing the shaft or dismantling adjacent machinery. This significantly reduces maintenance time, lowers operating costs, and minimises production downtime. Replacement bearing bushes and shells are readily available from stock, allowing worn components to be replaced quickly while retaining the original housing.
The DN5 Series Medium Duty Bearing is available with an extensive range of bore sizes to suit shaft diameters from 45 mm to 150 mm (1¾” to 6″), making it suitable for both new installations and replacement applications across numerous industries. The split gunmetal bush provides excellent wear resistance and dependable plain bearing performance, while the two-bolt housing offers secure mounting and reliable shaft support for medium-duty operating conditions.
Engineered as a durable DN5 Split Bronze Bearing, the range is widely used in manufacturing, conveyors, material handling systems, agricultural machinery, processing plants, pumps, fans, and general industrial equipment where reliable shaft support and easy maintenance are essential. The Medium Duty DIN Plummer Block design offers an economical solution for applications requiring the strength of a split plain bearing without the additional capacity of heavy-duty four-bolt units.
