The DODGE GT/GTM series Y-bearing with insert bearing is a ready-to-mount pillow block unit that pairs a split cast iron housing with a ball insert bearing. It arrives aligned and lubricated, so it can support rotating shafts in conveying, transmission and process equipment where rigidity and straightforward assembly matter. MR Industrial Accessories supplies this line to customers across the United States and in several Latin American countries, and can help you match the unit to your shaft.

Reading the code is the first step in selection. The P2B prefix denotes a two-bolt split pillow block housing, and the number that follows indicates shaft size: P2B-GTM-012 fits a 12 mm shaft, while other codes in the series cover additional metric sizes. The GTM suffix identifies the insert and its particular locking and sealing arrangement. With the complete code, the exact unit is identified without ambiguity.

Typical applications include belt conveyors, bucket elevators, mixers, mills, pumps, fans and packaging lines. In food, cement, mining, paper and aggregate processing, dust, humidity and washdowns are common, and the cast iron housing of the GT/GTM series handles moderate radial loads and medium shaft speeds. A practical advantage is that the insert bearing can be replaced while the housing remains in place.

Start selection with shaft diameter and load type. If axial load is present, confirm that the insert can accommodate it. Match the seal to the environment; in wet or fine-dust areas a tighter seal is preferable. During installation, seat the housing on a flat, rigid base, align the two halves before tightening the bolts and verify that the shaft is parallel to the equipment. Lubricate through the grease fitting with the specified grease and do not mix different bases. Careful alignment limits vibration and supports bearing life.

Y-bearings with insert bearing can be interchanged between manufacturers when shaft diameter, center height, bolt spacing and insert locking type match. DODGE GT/GTM units have counterparts in other lines, but comparing only the code is not enough: housing dimensions and the shaft locking method must be checked. For a replacement, send a photo or the code marked on the housing and we will point you to the compatible alternative.
