SNH split plummer block housing

The SNH split plummer block housing is a cast housing split into two halves: the base and the cap are joined with bolts, so the bearing can be mounted and dismounted without disassembling the shaft or moving the machine. It is selected by shaft diameter, the type of bearing it will house, and the method of attachment to the frame; this line includes 40 listed references, all from SKF.

The SNH designation identifies the series of split plummer block housings with a base with two anchor holes. The suffix following the number, as in SNH 516-613/VZ2P3, indicates the shaft diameter and the bearing it accepts, and the final letters describe variants in sealing, attachment, or machining. That is why the complete code is the data that defines the part: two housings with the same base number may differ in the cap, labyrinth, or anchor.

These housings are used on transmission shafts of continuous process equipment: belt conveyors, elevators, mills, mixers, pumps, and fans. The advantage of the split construction is maintenance: the cap is removed, the bearing is replaced, and the housing is closed again without uncoupling the shaft or correcting the alignment of the entire line.

To request a quote for an SNH split plummer block housing, the complete part code is required, or alternatively the shaft diameter, the bearing it will house, and the distance between anchor holes. If you have the old housing available, the number cast into the housing is enough to identify the equivalent reference. It is also advisable to specify whether you need the cap, labyrinth, or locking rings separately.
