The Dodge SCMED series insert bearing is a ball bearing with an extended inner ring, designed to be mounted in split housings and wall or pillow block units. Its design allows the shaft to be secured on the inner ring and the assembly to be housed in a split housing, which simplifies mounting and replacement in equipment where access is difficult. It is used in power transmission and in machinery that operates with rotating shafts and combined loads.

The SCMED series designation is read in blocks: the letters identify the insert family and the number that follows indicates the shaft diameter for which the bore is machined, in millimeters. Thus, INS-SCMED-25M corresponds to a 25 mm shaft, INS-SCMED-35M to a 35 mm one and INS-SCMED-50M to a 50 mm one. The M ending confirms the metric measurement. With the complete code, the insert your equipment needs is identified without ambiguity.

In Argentina these inserts appear in belt conveyors, bucket elevators, mixers, mills, packaging belts and process lines in food, chemical and aggregate plants. They are also found in water treatment equipment, blowers and industrial fans, where the split housing facilitates maintenance without disassembling the entire assembly. They are common in applications with long shafts and several support points.

To select the insert, start from the shaft diameter and the type of housing where it will be mounted. Check the sealing: in environments with dust, water or frequent washdown, reinforced protection is advisable. Check the lubrication and internal clearance before mounting, and verify the alignment of the housing with the shaft to avoid stress on the balls and raceway. A misaligned mounting shortens service life even if the bearing is the correct one.

Inserts of this type are interchanged between brands by series number and shaft measurement, but not all series share housing dimensions, inner ring width or mounting system. Before replacing one insert with another, compare the outer diameter, width and shaft adjustment method. If the original code does not match, we will indicate the compatible alternative with the dimensions of your housing.

If you have the insert code or the housing model, send it by WhatsApp to MR Accesorios Industriales and we will quote it promptly. We can also help you identify the shaft measurement and mounting type if you send us a photo or the housing dimensions. With more than 80 years in the industry, at MR Accesorios Industriales we know the equipment used in Argentine industry.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I identify the shaft measurement of the SCMED insert?
The number that follows the letters SCMED indicates the shaft diameter in millimeters. For example, SCMED-40M fits a 40 mm shaft and SCMED-65M a 65 mm one. If in doubt, measure the shaft with a caliper and send us the value by WhatsApp.
Can an insert from another brand be replaced by a Dodge SCMED one?
In many cases yes, but the outer diameter, inner ring width and shaft mounting system must be compared. It is not enough for the shaft measurement to match. Send us the housing dimensions and we will indicate the compatible alternative.
What should I check before mounting the insert in the housing?
Verify that the housing is clean and free of burrs, that the alignment between housing and shaft is correct and that the lubrication is in good condition. Also check the sealing if the equipment operates with dust or water. An aligned mounting prolongs bearing life.
