Overview
The Dodge Baldor P4B-S2-215R is a precision-engineered pillow block bearing designed for heavy-duty industrial applications. This unit combines reliable sleeve-bearing technology with cast iron housing to support mechanical power transmission systems across manufacturing, conveyor, and automation equipment. Model 070368 represents the current production specification from Dodge/Baldor, a leading manufacturer of bearing assemblies under the ABB Motors and Mechanical Inc. portfolio.
Key Features
- 4-Bolt Flange Mount: Rigid mounting configuration minimizes vibration and ensures precise alignment in demanding applications.
- 2-15/16″ Bore Diameter: Accommodates standard industrial shaft sizes for straightforward integration into existing designs.
- Relubricatable Design: Springlok concentric collar with accessible grease fittings enables scheduled maintenance without disassembly.
- Heavy-Duty Cast Iron Housing: Durable construction rated for -100 to +200°F operating temperature range.
- Expansion Type (Fixed): Non-expansion bearing design provides fixed axial positioning for applications requiring controlled shaft movement limits.
