The DODGE SC series insert bearing is a ball bearing built with an extended inner ring, made to sit inside split plummer block housings as well as wall and floor units. Maintenance teams pick it when they want a unit that goes on without fuss, carries radial load well, and lets the insert be swapped out while the housing stays in place. MR Industrial Accessories supplies this series to plants across the United States, Canada, Mexico and South America.

Reading the code is straightforward once you know the pattern. The letters mark the insert family, and the digits that come after them give the bore size, as in INS-SC-20M-CR or INS-SC-50M-CR. The M suffix points to the mounting variant for that particular size, while CR tells you which sealing arrangement the insert carries. Because of this, always quote the full part number when you need a replacement: two inserts from the same series with different suffixes will not swap for one another.

You will run into these inserts on belt conveyors, bucket elevators, mixers, screens, mills and other process equipment in food, chemical and aggregate plants. They also show up on agricultural machinery, centrifugal pumps and industrial fans, since a split plummer block housing lets the shaft be fitted or pulled without tearing down the drive. For maintenance and replacement work on lines exposed to dust, moisture or regular washdown, they are a familiar choice.

Selection starts with the shaft diameter and the housing type the insert seats into. Sealing comes next: a reinforced seal suits dusty or wet duty, while the standard version handles clean service. At mounting, seat the insert without hammering on the outer ring, verify housing alignment, and lubricate to match the duty cycle. Misalignment or bolts tightened unevenly will cut bearing life short.

SC series inserts interchange across brands by shaft size and mounting configuration, not by manufacturer part number. To match an insert from another maker, line up shaft diameter, inner ring width, locking type and sealing. Where the housing is still in good shape, the insert alone is often all you need; otherwise the complete unit gets replaced. If the original part number is no longer available, MR Industrial Accessories can point you to a compatible alternative.

Send the insert part number or the shaft size over WhatsApp or email and the team will come back with a quote. You can also share details of the complete unit with its housing if replacing the whole assembly makes more sense. MR works with plant applications daily and will help you settle on the variant that fits your equipment.
