The DODGE SC series pillow block is a foot-mounted unit that carries an insert bearing, used to support rotating shafts in industrial machinery. Its base bolts down to frames or structures, and the insert bearing accommodates slight misalignment, so it suits installations where perfect alignment is difficult. MR supplies this line to maintenance and purchasing teams across the United States and Latin America, and can help you match the right unit to your shaft and application.

Reading the code helps you order the correct unit. A typical code such as P2B-SC-008-NL breaks down as follows: P for pillow block, B for the mounting variant, SC for the insert bearing series, and NL for no factory lubrication, meaning the unit is greased on site. The final digits give the size: P2B-SC-008-NL fits a shaft of 8/8 inch, while P2B-SC-100-NL uses metric sizing. Understanding this structure lets you request the exact part number without guesswork.

These units are common on belt conveyors, bucket elevators, mixers, mills, centrifugal pumps and bottling lines. They appear in food processing, cement, tanneries and metalworking shops, where the foot mount and insert bearing simplify installation on sheet metal frames or profiles. The SC series covers a broad range of shaft diameters in both inch and metric sizes, which makes it a frequent choice for replacements.

Selection depends on shaft diameter, the type of load (radial, axial or combined) and the operating environment. The insert seal determines whether the unit is suitable for dusty, humid or washdown conditions. Grease is applied through the built-in nipple, and it is good practice to lubricate before start-up. Alignment between pillow blocks matters: even though the self-centering insert absorbs small deviations, an uneven base will speed up wear. Tighten the bolts to the recommended torque and check radial clearance.

When replacing a pillow block from another brand, interchangeability comes down to measurements: shaft diameter, distance between base holes, center height and mounting type. The DODGE SC series has equivalents in other brands, but codes do not always match. The practical approach is to send the old code or the shaft and base dimensions; we will quote the DODGE option that fits your equipment.
