Dodge proudly offers a ball bearing with a name that says it all: Grip Tight
With its patented pull/push adapter system, fully concentric 360º inner ring, and completely interchangeable housing design, the Dodge Grip Tight adapter ball bearing is the easy-on/easy-off solution for damage-free shafting, reduced vibration, and greater cost/inventory savings. The Grip Tight adapter ball bearing is shaft-ready right out of the box and offered in a variety of housing styles for normal and medium duty operations. It accommodates commercial grade and some undersize shafting to lower costs, and all Grip Tight adapter assemblies fit into a standard Dodge ball bearing housing. Plus this Dodge bearing has been specifically engineered to run at higher speeds and operate cooler for longer grease life. In test comparisons, the Grip Tight adapter ball bearing even proved it could suppress fretting corrosion and scarring to shafts and journals, thus saving not only time but added labor and maintenance costs.

Easy-on/Easy-off
The Dodge Grip Tight ball bearing is shaft-ready right out of the box. It can be installed or removed quickly, because there is no assembly and no special tools needed for installation. During mounting, the collar/inner ring system locks the tapered adapter sleeve under the bearing and onto the shaft. To dismount, the built-in bearing puller pulls the bearing off the adapter and pushes the adapter in the opposite direction (out from under the bearing).

DualGuard seal
• Mechanically retained single lip seal for added strength
   - Purgeable design
   - Nitrile rubber lip
   - Keeps out contaminants
• Rubberized flinger
   -Dodge-only technology Rubberized flinger provides external protection and discards contaminants as it rotates
   -Molded baffles in flinger act like a paddle wheel to help deflect liquids
   -Molded rubber increases the radius of the flinger which increases the acceleration rate of the contaminants as they are thrown away from the bearing
   -Rubber molding on the flinger is extended to the outer race of the bearing providing better protection than non-rubberized versions
