Overview
The Dodge SAF-XT-515 is a 2-bolt mounted pillow block housing built for industrial power transmission and material handling applications. This split-type SAF-XT series unit accommodates 2-7/16″ bore diameter shafts and is engineered for SAF dimensional interchangeability, making it a drop-in alternative for many legacy bearing applications. The cast iron construction and advanced seal design make the SAF-XT-515 a reliable choice for machinery requiring consistent alignment and vibration tolerance.
Key Features
- 2-bolt base mount for straightforward installation on horizontal shafts
- Split housing design allows easier bearing insertion and maintenance without shaft removal
- Single grease fitting with purging and self-centering seal system for simplified lubrication
- SAF dimensional interchangeability for retrofitting and system upgrades
- Cast iron housing with dimpled feet for precise doweling alignment
- Cap removal pry slots and elongated mounting holes for field service
