A DODGE D-Lok P2B pillow block is a split housing that carries a shaft through an insert bearing. The D-Lok locking method holds the inner ring to the shaft, so mounting and removal go faster and the shaft surface stays intact. Conveyors, fans, mixers and similar transmission equipment rely on this kind of support where the shaft has to stay aligned under load. MR Industrial Accessories LLC supplies this line to customers in the United States and Latin America.

Reading the code takes a moment, but it pays off at quote time. P2B tells you the housing is a two-bolt split pillow block. DLB places it in the D-Lok family. The trailing number, such as 20M, is a bore size code for the insert bearing, not a measurement in inches or millimeters. To find the matching shaft, cross-reference that code against the series data sheet. The safest approach is to send the complete part number exactly as it appears on the equipment nameplate.

These housings turn up in belt and chain conveyors, bucket elevators, centrifugal fans, mixers, mills and other process machinery, including food, cement, mining and aggregate operations where dust, moisture or washdowns are part of daily life. The D-Lok locking design suits positions where the bearing has to come off and go back on without special tooling and without scoring the shaft.

Selection comes down to shaft diameter, radial and axial load, and the surrounding conditions. The insert seal decides how well the unit handles dust, water or vapors, so the harsher the setting, the more protective the seal should be. Use the lubricant specified for the insert and refresh it according to the duty cycle. At installation, confirm that the housing lines up with the shaft and that the mounting bolts are tight; misalignment is a common cause of shortened bearing life.

Split pillow blocks with insert bearings can be swapped between brands when the shaft diameter, center height and hole spacing line up. DODGE D-Lok units have counterparts in other split housing lines, though the locking method is not always the same. Replacing a housing on diameter alone is not enough; check hole center distance, center height and locking style as well. If the part number is missing, a photo of the nameplate or the main dimensions works just as well.

For a DODGE D-Lok housing or a compatible alternative, send the full part number or the shaft and hole pattern dimensions by WhatsApp or email. Our team replies promptly, points you to the right equivalent when needed, and can advise on mounting and lubricating the insert.
