Hey,
I'm having some problems regarding what type of pillow block to use to support a 2'' diameter black iron pipe vertically, yet letting it spin on the pillow block.
I'm aware that the weight applied to a pillow blocks is usually parallel to the mounting surface (the way one would usually use a ball bearing). I am wondering if there is a pillow block out there that can support 100-150lbs, but on the wrong axis.
I plan to mount the rod on the pillow block using a collar above the pillow block (butting against it)
I'm sorry if the description is hard to understand but its also difficult to describe.
