Overview
The Dodge F2B-GT-111 is a standard two-bolt flange mount ball bearing unit built for general industrial machinery and power transmission applications. This Series 209 bearing features a 1-11/16″ bore diameter and incorporates Dodge’s patented Grip-Tight adapter locking mechanism for tool-free, damage-free shaft installation. The unit combines normal-duty design with effective sealing to handle typical industrial environments while maintaining low operating drag.
Key Features
- Grip-Tight Adapter System: Patented pull/push mechanism eliminates shaft damage and reduces installation time; fully concentric 360-degree inner ring.
- 2-Bolt Flange Mount: Standard base flange design simplifies alignment and mounting in industrial frameworks.
- Single Lip Nitrile Seal: Protects against moisture and contaminants; rated for operating temperatures between 225°F and 400°F.
- High Speed Capability: Maximum continuous rating of 8,000 rpm supports demanding motion control and conveyor applications.
- Robust Load Capacity: 7,891 lb dynamic load rating and 4,906 lb static load rating for reliable performance under heavy duty cycles.
