DODGE F4B-VSC-108 belongs to flange bearing 4 holes, part of our Bearing housings range. Tell us how many you need by WhatsApp or email and we'll get back to you promptly with a quote for F4B-VSC-108 and any equivalents.

The DODGE VSC series Y-bearing unit with insert bearing is a four-bolt flange mounted bearing that secures rotating shafts to a flat surface and handles radial loads with self-alignment. It suits equipment where mounting space is tight and the shaft requires freedom to self-align. MR Industrial Accessories supplies this line and offers alternatives for every shaft size.

The VSC series code breaks down into parts: the letter F denotes the flange type, the following number specifies the bearing size, and the VSC suffix identifies the housing variant with insert. This is why codes like F4B-VSC-008, F4B-VSC-010, and F4B-VSC-100 all exist—the shaft size and flange diameter vary, but the mounting principle remains the same. Provide the complete code and we will suggest an equivalent alternative.

These housings are common in conveyors, mixers, blowers, centrifugal pumps, and packaging lines. In US plants, they appear in food, chemical, and aggregate operations, where washdown or dust requires a mounting that maintains concentricity. The four-bolt flange mounts to sheet metal or a bedplate with simple drilled holes, and the self-aligning insert compensates for minor shaft misalignment.

When selecting, consider shaft diameter, load type, and environment. For moisture or washdown, a reinforced seal is recommended; for high-speed shafts, check lubrication and internal clearance. During installation, place the flange on a clean, flat surface, tighten bolts in a cross pattern, and then align the drive. Poor alignment reduces insert life more than any other factor.

Insert bearing housing series interchange between brands by shaft size and flange type, not by code. A four-bolt housing from one brand can replace another with the same diameter and configuration, but tolerances, sealing, and load capacity may differ. If unsure, send us the original code and shaft size; we will identify a compatible alternative.

MR Industrial Accessories supplies the DODGE line and manufactures split plummer block housings, ANSI chains, and pulleys. To replace a VSC housing or adapt an existing mounting, contact us via WhatsApp or email with the code or model you need. We will quote promptly and help you define the best option for your equipment.
