The Dodge SCMED Y-bearing flange unit is a piloted flange mounted bearing that supports rotating shafts in power transmission systems. It bolts to a flat surface and uses a pilot for precise alignment. Common applications include conveyors, mixers, fans, and general machinery. MR supplies this line with technical support to help you select the right size.
The SCMED series uses a numeric suffix to indicate the insert bearing size. For example, FC-SCMED-100, FC-SCMED-103, and FC-SCMED-107 each represent a specific shaft diameter and housing combination. These numbers are not sequential; each corresponds to a particular size in the Dodge range. To identify the correct unit, provide the full code or the shaft diameter, and we will confirm the exact reference.
These units are found in food processing, chemical, cement, and aggregate operations. Typical equipment includes belt conveyors, bucket elevators, horizontal mixers, centrifugal fans, and pumps. The piloted flange mounts with four bolts to sheet metal or cast iron, which simplifies replacement and minimizes downtime. They are also used where rigid support and stable alignment are critical.
When selecting a unit, consider shaft diameter, load type (radial, axial, or combined), and environmental conditions. The insert seal protects against dust and moisture; in washdown areas, extra protection may be needed. Mounting requires a flat flange surface and tightening bolts in a cross pattern to prevent housing distortion. Lubrication is typically permanent, but inspect the seal before installation.
Interchange between brands of piloted flange Y-bearing units depends on shaft dimensions, bolt spacing, and pilot diameter. The commercial code alone is insufficient; dimensions must be compared. For a replacement, send us the existing code or measurements, and we will suggest a compatible alternative.

Frequently asked questions
- How do I determine the correct size for an SCMED unit?
- The size is based on shaft diameter and flange bolt spacing. Provide the full code or shaft diameter, and we will identify the exact reference in the SCMED series.
- What distinguishes a piloted flange Y-bearing unit from a pillow block?
- A piloted flange unit mounts to a flat surface with bolts and centers via the pilot; a pillow block sits on a base. The choice depends on space and load type.
- Can a unit from another brand be replaced with a Dodge SCMED unit?
- Yes, if shaft dimensions, bolt spacing, and pilot diameter match. Send us the dimensions of the original equipment, and we will indicate the compatible equivalent.
