“The new mounting system replaces the blows of a hammer with the tightening of fasteners,” says Jim Madsen, dodge mounted roller bearing product manager, ABB. “It also makes it faster to install large bearings, but more importantly, it makes it safer for the installer.”
The company says Safety Mount bearings feature a triple-lip contact seal and corrosion-resistant flinger sealing system which prevents contamination from entering the product during installation and operation. A labyrinth seal option is available for high-speed and high-temperature applications.
Dodge Safety Mount bearings are factory sealed and greased, shaft ready out of the box, with no feeler gauges required. They are offered in split cap and single piece housing options in standard SAF, metric SN, Type E, and Imperial housing dimensions in sizes 4-15/16” to 7” (115 mm to 170 mm).
