The DODGE ER-Series insert bearing is a ball bearing with an extended inner ring, designed to be mounted in split, pillow block or flange housings. It is used in equipment where the shaft rotates on supports that must be replaced without disassembling the entire machine. MR Accesorios Industriales sells this line in Buenos Aires, Argentina, in bearings, housings and power transmission for industry.

The ER-Series designation is read from the insert code: the abbreviation INS-GTM identifies the family, and the number that follows defines the bore size and the locking type according to the code. For example, INS-GTM-012 corresponds to a small-size insert, while INS-GTM-100, INS-GTM-103 and INS-GTM-107 cover larger diameters within the same series. The numeric suffixes are not interchangeable with each other: each one corresponds to a shaft diameter and a specific locking system. To choose the right one, provide the complete code shown on the housing tag or on the old insert.

These insert bearings are used in belt conveyors, bucket elevators, mixers, mills, packaging lines and process equipment in food, chemical, cement and aggregate processing plants. In Argentina they are common in the oilseed, meatpacking and mining industries, where housings work with dust, moisture or frequent washdowns. The DODGE ER-Series is designed for mounting in split and pillow block housings, which simplifies replacement on lines that cannot stop for long.

To select the insert, take into account the shaft diameter, the locking type (set screw, eccentric or adapter) and the sealing: environments with water or fine particles require higher-containment seals. Mounting is done with the shaft clean and free of burrs, tightening the lock evenly and verifying alignment with the housing. Factory lubrication is usually enough for start-up, but in service it is advisable to follow the plant's greasing plan. Poor alignment shortens the life of the insert and the housing.

As for equivalences, insert bearings are interchanged between brands by series number and bore dimensions, but not all locking systems or seals are compatible. Before replacing a DODGE with another brand, compare the shaft diameter, the inner ring width and the position of the set screws or the eccentric ring. At MR Accesorios Industriales we indicate the compatible alternative and, if the mounting requires it, we quote split housings to measure.

If you need to replace an insert for an existing housing, send the code shown on the bearing or on the housing tag via WhatsApp. With that data we will quote you the equivalent INS-GTM and, if necessary, advise you on the sealing or locking type best suited to your application. We handle technical inquiries from plants and workshops throughout the country.
