Hunt Engineers Series EN

The Hunt Engineers EN Series Bearing range is designed to provide a reliable replacement solution for legacy Hunt Engineers bearing assemblies used across a wide variety of industrial applications. Manufactured with a fully split cast iron housing and precision-machined gunmetal bearing inserts, these bearing units offer dependable shaft support, simplified maintenance, and long service life. As a trusted supplier of Hunt Engineers replacement bearing solutions, Bowman continues to support existing installations with high-quality replacement bearings manufactured to proven engineering standards.

The Hunt Engineers EN Series Bearing is available in an extensive range of bore sizes to suit shaft diameters from 25 mm to 150 mm (1″ to 6″), allowing the bearing to be specified for a broad range of industrial machinery. Each bearing incorporates a fully split housing and split gunmetal bush, enabling maintenance personnel to inspect or replace bearing inserts without removing the shaft or dismantling surrounding equipment. This significantly reduces maintenance time, lowers operating costs, and minimises production downtime.

Designed as a robust split bronze bearing EN Series, each bearing features gunmetal inserts manufactured to a length of two shaft diameters, providing excellent load distribution, stable shaft support, and extended bearing life. The replaceable bearing shell design ensures worn inserts can be replaced quickly, while replacement shells are readily available from stock to support ongoing maintenance programmes.

The EN Series Plummer Block is widely used in manufacturing, material handling, processing equipment, marine applications, agricultural machinery, pumps, conveyors, and general industrial equipment where dependable plain bearing performance is essential. As a durable legacy split bronze bearing, the EN Series continues to provide an effective solution for maintaining older machinery without requiring expensive redesigns or equipment replacement.

Originally manufactured using imperial dimensions, the same castings are used for both imperial and metric bore sizes. As a result, the overall housing dimensions remain based on the equivalent imperial casting, with the established “2 times” rule applying to the original inch dimensions. This ensures compatibility with existing installations while maintaining the proven performance of the original design.

Whether you require a direct Hunt Engineers replacement bearing, an EN Series split brass bearing assembly, or dependable Hunt Engineers Housing UK support, Bowman provides precision-engineered replacement solutions that combine robust construction, replaceable bearing inserts, and long-term serviceability. With decades of experience in manufacturing split plain bearings, Bowman continues to support legacy Hunt Engineers equipment with reliable, high-quality bearing assemblies built for demanding industrial applications.
