The VSC series Y-bearing housing with insert bearing is a mounted pillow block unit: the cast iron housing and the insert come assembled as a single unit, ready to bolt to the structure. It is used to guide shafts in equipment where a self-aligning, easy-to-mount unit with good lubricant reserve is required. MR Accesorios Industriales supplies this DODGE line in Buenos Aires, Argentina, and quotes it on WhatsApp with the full part number.

The VSC series designation is read in blocks. The letter P indicates the two-bolt pillow block housing; the number that follows defines the housing size. B corresponds to the housing type, and VSC identifies the insert family with its sealing system. The final number, as in P2B-VSC-17M or P2B-VSC-40M, is the shaft size: that is why the same housing accepts different sizes and it is best to copy the entire part number when ordering.

These housings appear in belt and chain conveyors, mixers, exhaust fans, screens, bucket elevators and packaging lines. In food, chemical and aggregate plants in Argentina they are chosen for the ease of mounting on sheet metal or structural profiles and for the self-aligning insert, which absorbs small shaft misalignments without requiring fine machining on the frame.

To select correctly, first check the shaft diameter and the radial load the unit will support; then define the sealing according to the environment: dust, water or frequent washdown require tighter protection. During mounting, rest the housing on a flat, rigid surface, tighten the bolts without forcing the housing and verify the alignment of both shaft supports before applying final torque. The insert lubrication is replenished through the grease channel.

Among brands, pillow block housings with insert are interchangeable by shaft size and housing configuration: two-bolt, four-bolt or flange. What changes is the sealing system, the type of insert-to-shaft fixing and each manufacturer's tolerances. When replacing a unit, compare those characteristics and not only the diameter; if the part number does not match, we will indicate the compatible alternative.

If you have the housing part number at hand, send it by WhatsApp to MR Accesorios Industriales along with the shaft size and the type of working environment. With that we will quote the DODGE VSC series unit or the alternative that best suits your equipment, and we will assist you in selecting the sealing and mounting. We also carry the rest of the housing and mounted bearing line.
