Overview
The Dodge F4B-SC-107 (also known as Baldor 124208) is a standard-duty pillow block bearing designed for general industrial applications. This four-bolt square flange bearing unit accommodates a 1-7/16″ shaft bore and is rated for continuous operation up to 5,500 rpm. The casting is made of durable iron housing with a single-lip contact seal for reliable protection in typical industrial environments.
Key Features
