SNU series plummer block housings are split housings consisting of a cap and base. They are solid without mounting holes. The housings are designed to enable a wider choice of shaft-bearing combinations.
Cartridges have a spherical outer surface that fits into a conforming surface in the mounting unit (such as pillow block or flange) in the manner of a ball and socket joint. Any shaft misalignment that may exist tends to move the cartridge, seal and bearing together, maintaining the seal on an axis parallel to the shaft.

Pedistals (also called pillow blocks) are the most common mountings for split bearings. Detail design and number of fixing bolts varies with bearing series and size.
