This 4-bolt flange unit pairs a cast iron housing with a DODGE SC series ball insert bearing. It mounts flat against a surface with four bolts, holding a rotating shaft in a fixed, centered position. The insert arrives pre-lubricated and already seated in the housing, which simplifies installation on light and medium-duty drives.
The part number breaks down into segments. F4B means a 4-bolt flange unit. SCM identifies the insert series. The digits that follow give the shaft diameter in millimeters. The M confirms metric sizing, and NL shows the insert has no eccentric locking collar, so it is secured another way. Reading the code this way helps you order the exact unit for your shaft.
Typical applications include belt conveyors, bucket elevators, mixers, screens, fans and packaging lines, as well as food and beverage, aggregate processing and other processing plants. The four-bolt flange mounts to sheet metal or a steel structure with matching hole spacing, while the insert bearing carries radial loads and some axial thrust from pulleys or sprockets.
When selecting, confirm the shaft diameter and the mounting type the insert accepts. Align the flange holes with the mounting surface; a flange that sits poorly puts stress on the bearing and shortens its service life. Insert lubrication is permanent in most cases, but check sealing for the environment. Dust, water or frequent washdowns may call for extra protection. Follow the manufacturer's instructions for mounting and adjustment.
Units from different brands are often interchangeable when shaft diameter, flange hole layout and insert mounting type match. A similar part number is not enough; compare the critical dimensions. We can help you find a compatible option while keeping the DODGE brand we supply.
