In doing so, they help decrease the amount of wear and tear equipment can succumb to. One reliable company is Dodge. Bearings produced by Baldor-Dodge have a proven record of accomplishment. They produce a variety of bearings, including S-2000 mounted bearings.
S-2000 Mounted Bearings
Mounted bearings are a type of bearing that allows the shaft axis to perform either perpendicularly or parallel to the bearing mount. They come in three different types.
1. Flange Block
2. Hanger Bearings
3. Pillow Block
The S-2000 mounted Dodge bearings are available in pillow and flange blocks. They are unit-housed in either cast iron or cast steel housings. While variations do exist, all S-2000s include the following features:
* Tridents seals – These, triple lip rubbing seals with corrosion-resistant flingers are designed to handle dirty environments. They offer maximum sealing protection at speeds ranging from low to medium even when misalignment occurs
* Labyrinth seal: Is an option for those who require operations proceed at high speeds and higher ambient conditions. This type of seal comes in steel carriers and has corrosion-resistant flingers. The placement of the seals in close proximity to the bearings safeguards grease purging of diverse contaminants
