Description
INA GE20-XL-KTT-B is a y-bearing (insert bearing) reference, within Bearings. Request a quote for GE20-XL-KTT-B via WhatsApp or email with the quantity you need; we respond promptly with lead time and equivalents.
The Y-bearing, also called an insert bearing, is a unit ready to mount on shafts with a cylindrical seat, designed for equipment where motion is continuous and working conditions are not always clean. It is fixed to the shaft by means of set screws and is housed in split or pillow block housings, which simplifies assembly and replacement. The INA GE-XL-KTT-B series covers the most commonly used sizes in agricultural machinery, transport and industrial plants in Argentina.
The designation of this series is read in blocks: the letters GE identify the family of Y-bearings with a specific outer ring geometry; the number that follows, as in GE20-XL-KTT-B or GE40-XL-KTT-B, indicates the shaft diameter in millimeters. The XL suffix corresponds to the manufacturer's current design generation, and KTT-B groups together the sealing and locking characteristics of the insert. The examples GE25-XL-KTT-B, GE30-XL-KTT-B and GE50-XL-KTT-B show that the series scales by shaft size without changing the construction concept.
These bearings are used in belt conveyors, bucket elevators, mixers, screens, packaging belts and grain handling equipment. In Argentina they appear frequently in the food industry, in storage plants and in agricultural implements, where dust, humidity and frequent washing punish conventional bearings. The insert with integrated sealing and split housing allows the unit to be replaced without disassembling the entire shaft, something key when the equipment works in shifts and cannot be stopped for long.
To choose well, take into account the shaft diameter, the type of housing where it will be housed and the working environment. The sealing of the insert defines how much contamination it tolerates: in areas with water or fine dust, a more closed protection is advisable. Lubrication comes from the factory, but in service it is advisable to check it according to running hours and temperature. When mounting, seat the insert without striking it, tighten the set screws on the shaft with the correct wrench and verify the alignment of the housing so that the bearing does not work under stress.
Y-bearings are available in several brands and lines, and interchangeability is resolved by comparing shaft diameter, type of locking, sealing and outer ring shape. It is not enough for the size to match: if the locking system or the protection changes, the behavior in service also changes. At MR Accesorios Industriales we work with INA as an official brand that we carry and we can guide you on the appropriate equivalence according to the equipment and the intended use.
If you already have the insert code, the housing model or the shaft size, send us that data via WhatsApp. With that we identify the correct variant within the GE-XL-KTT-B series and send you the quote promptly. We can also advise you if you are replacing a worn unit and want to evaluate an equivalent alternative within the lines we carry.

Frequently Asked Questions
- How do I identify the Y-bearing I need?
- Measure the shaft diameter where it is mounted and check the code engraved on the insert or on the housing. With that data, or with a photo of the part, we can locate the variant within the GE-XL-KTT-B series and confirm the quote.
- What does the KTT-B suffix mean in the designation?
- It groups together the sealing and locking characteristics specific to this line of INA inserts. To choose correctly, you must compare the type of protection and the locking system with the conditions of the equipment, not just the shaft size.
- Can it be replaced by another equivalent brand?
- Yes, as long as the shaft diameter, locking, sealing and outer ring geometry match. Not all combinations are interchangeable between brands. Send us the original code via WhatsApp and we will tell you which alternative fits your equipment.
