GENERAL INFORMATION Dodge USN bearings conform with all appropriate ISO standards. They are available in either adapter or direct mounting styles for 40 mm to 160 mm diameter shafts. A wide variety of seals are available including standard metallic LER, TRIPLE-TECT™ non-metallic seal with V-ring, Drop-in TRIPLE- TECT seal with neoprene V-ring, Auxiliary Taconite or Split non-metallic. TRIPLE-TECT seal is provided as standard on complete assemblies. DODGE USN housings provide you with maximum application flexibility. Cast-in dimples allow for easy field modification for vents, lube ports and sensors. Oversized drains and an oil equalization hole make USN bearings ready for circulating oil systems off-the-shelf. For hostile environments, USN offers optional cast closed end housings, stainless steel hardware kits, and nickel or nylon coating. Complete installation, maintenance and modification instructions are provided in this manual. INSPECTION Inspect shaft — Ensure that the shaft is smooth, straight, clean, and within commercial tolerances. Inspect bearing — Do not allow bearing to be exposed to any dirt or moisture. Do not remove preservative compound as it acts as both a protectant and lubricant and is also compatible with standard greases. Note: Housing caps and bases are not interchangeable. They must be matched with mating half. Install non- expansion bearing first. Note: For seal types other than TRIPLE-TECT such as drop- in TRIPLE-TECT, LER, auxiliary seals and split seals follow instructions supplied with the seals. Note: For an explanation of the various dimples and tapped holes found on the USN housings, see Table 11.
