The DODGE FC-DLM series is a piloted flange mounted Y-bearing unit that pairs an insert ball bearing with a cast iron housing. It supports rotating shafts where front mounting and pilot centering are needed, and the assembly can be installed or removed without taking the shaft apart. This makes it a practical choice for light and medium drives that call for straightforward alignment and quick maintenance.

The part number breaks down into distinct blocks. The letters FC denote the piloted flange design; DLM identifies the Y-bearing unit family; the number following the hyphen, such as in FC-DLM-35M or FC-DLM-65M, gives the nominal shaft diameter. The M suffix specifies the sealing and locking variant of the insert. With these elements, you can pinpoint the exact unit in the series.

Typical applications include belt conveyors, bucket elevators, mixers, blowers and packaging lines. In food processing, cement, cold storage and grain handling facilities, the front flange mounting simplifies installation on sheet metal or profile structures. These units also suit equipment with horizontal shafts and moderate loads.

When selecting a unit, confirm that the shaft diameter matches the number in the designation and that the flange holes align with your structure. The insert is normally available with a labyrinth seal or a contact lip seal; for dusty or wet conditions, the tighter option is preferable. During mounting, seat the pilot in the housing, tighten the screws in a cross pattern, and check that the shaft turns freely. Lubricate according to the insert type and verify alignment with a straightedge or dial indicator.

DODGE DLM series units can interchange with equivalent units from other manufacturers that share the same shaft size and flange arrangement. The critical factors are the diameter, the hole spacing and the insert locking type. If the original assembly uses a split housing or an insert with special features, compare the complete part number before replacing it.
