The DODGE Grip Tight 2-bolt flange housing with insert bearing is a mounted unit that combines a ball bearing with a flange housing for fastening to structures. It is used to support rotating shafts in power transmission equipment, allowing alignment and ensuring rotation with minimal friction. MR Accesorios Industriales sells this line for industrial applications in Buenos Aires, Argentina.
The LFT-GT-…M designation is read in parts: LFT identifies the 2-bolt flange housing type, GT corresponds to the Grip Tight series of insert bearings with a tapered ring locking system, and the number with the final M indicates the shaft diameter for which it is manufactured. For example, LFT-GT-17M, LFT-GT-20M, LFT-GT-25M, LFT-GT-30M and LFT-GT-35M cover different shaft sizes within the same family. The M suffix indicates the metric system of the series.
These housings are used in conveyors, belts, elevators, mixers, fans and process lines in food, chemical, cement and aggregate processing plants. In Argentina, they are common in material handling equipment and in machines that require quick mounting and regreasing. The 2-bolt flange allows the unit to be fastened to sheet metal or structure with two bolts, simplifying installation and field replacement.
To select the housing, check the shaft diameter, the expected radial and axial load, and the environmental conditions. The Grip Tight system locks the bearing to the shaft by means of a tapered ring that is tightened with bolts, which facilitates mounting and dismounting without damaging the shaft. It is important to align the flange with the shaft, lubricate according to specification and check axial clearance. The insert seal protects against dust and moisture; for severe environments, consider additional seals.
DODGE Grip Tight housings are interchangeable with other brands of 2-bolt flange housings with insert bearing, provided the flange dimensions, shaft diameter and locking type match. When requesting a quote, provide the complete part number and the operating conditions so that MR Accesorios Industriales can indicate the compatible alternative or in-house manufacturing if required.
