The DODGE Grip Tight series 2-bolt flange bearing is a mounted ball bearing with a flange housing, designed to secure rotating shafts to a flat structure. The flange is bolted with two holes and the insert locks onto the shaft through the Grip Tight system, which ensures firm and repeatable holding. It is used in equipment where a compact, self-aligning and easy-to-mount unit with good protection against dust and moisture is required.

The Grip Tight series designation is read as the code LFT-GT- followed by a three-digit number. That number identifies the size of the housing and insert bearing: for example, LFT-GT-008, LFT-GT-010, LFT-GT-012, LFT-GT-014 and LFT-GT-015 correspond to increasing sizes, while LFT-GT-100, LFT-GT-102 and LFT-GT-103 group other variants of the same family. The numeric suffix does not indicate the shaft diameter by itself: to choose the correct part number, the shaft diameter and the mounting type required by the equipment must be cross-referenced.

In Argentine industry these bearings appear in belt conveyors, bucket elevators, mixers, screens, fans and packaging lines. They are also found in milling equipment, centrifugal pumps and food and beverage machinery, where the two-bolt flange simplifies anchoring onto sheet metal or profile structures. Being a mounted unit, it replaces the assembly of bearing plus housing put together piece by piece, which reduces maintenance times and assembly errors.

To select the bearing, check the shaft diameter, the expected radial and axial load, and the space available for the flange. The Grip Tight system secures the insert to the shaft by means of a collar tightened with screws, without the need for a press or special shaft tolerances. It is important to respect the collar tightening torque, align the flange with the shaft line and lubricate the insert according to the working environment. In applications with dust, water or frequent washing, the appropriate sealing should be chosen to extend service life.

Two-bolt flange mounted bearings are interchangeable between brands by dimensional equivalence: shaft diameter, flange hole spacing, housing outside diameter and mounting type. A similar part number is not enough; those dimensions and the locking system must be compared. At MR Accesorios Industriales we indicate the compatible alternative from the Grip Tight series or from another line that suits your equipment, always starting from the part number or the drawing of the original part.
