For shafts that need dependable support on a flat mounting surface, the DODGE SC series combines a cast iron housing with a self-aligning ball bearing and a locking insert. This mounted unit handles smooth rotation and tolerates minor misalignment, making it a practical choice for many driven shafts in industrial equipment.

The part number follows a structured pattern. The letter P stands for pillow block, the following digit indicates the housing position and style, and B denotes the two-piece mounting. The SC block identifies the insert bearing series, while the last three digits give the shaft diameter. That is why you see references such as P2B-SC-008, P2B-SC-010, P2B-SC-012, P2B-SC-014 and P2B-SC-015 for metric shafts, alongside P2B-SC-100, P2B-SC-101 and P2B-SC-102 for inch sizes. The SCH-E series follows the same numbering with different housing options.

These pillow blocks are common in belt conveyors, bucket elevators, mills, mixers, centrifugal pumps, fans and packaging lines. They also appear in material handling equipment and outdoor agricultural machinery. In food processing, cement, cold storage, tanneries and aggregate operations, the housing must withstand dust and moisture while the insert stays protected. The seal option you choose determines how well the unit performs in those conditions.

When selecting a pillow block, begin with the shaft diameter, then consider the radial and axial loads of the application. The SC insert can accommodate some initial misalignment, but the base needs a rigid, flat support. Tighten the anchor bolts and check parallelism with the opposing shaft. In dirty or washdown environments, pick the variant with the better seal. Relubricate according to service hours and load type.

Cross-referencing between brands relies on shaft number, housing type and insert series rather than the commercial code. A pillow block from another manufacturer can serve as a replacement if the shaft diameter, housing configuration, anchor hole spacing and center height all match. If a direct equivalent is not possible due to space or load, our team can evaluate alternatives or manufacture a housing to suit the application.

If you have the equipment code or shaft size, send it via WhatsApp or email and we will quote the correct reference. We can also suggest a compatible option within the DODGE line or from our own manufacturing. Technical support for selection and replacement is part of what we do.
