The SEALMASTER VS series insert bearing is a single row ball bearing with an extended inner ring, designed to be mounted in split or solid housings and to support rotating shafts in industrial equipment. It is used in conveyors, fans, mixers and process machinery where a compact unit with easy mounting and good radial load capacity is required. MR Accesorios Industriales sells this line in Buenos Aires, Argentina, in the field.

The VS series designation is read from the number that follows the hyphen: it identifies different insert sizes. The suffixes and variants of the VS 300, VS 100 and VS 200 series organize the combinations of shaft diameter, outer ring and locking type. To choose the correct part number, have the shaft diameter and the housing where it will be mounted on hand; with that data we will tell you the exact reference.

These inserts are used in conveying and process equipment: conveyor belts, bucket elevators, centrifugal fans, mixers, screens and machines for food and beverage. In Argentina you will find them in grain plants, meatpacking plants, tanneries, paper mills and mining facilities, always on shafts that rotate at moderate speeds and with radial loads combined with some axial load.

To select the insert, check the shaft diameter and the type of shaft locking (set screw, eccentric or taper). Sealing is key: in environments with dust, water or frequent washdown, additional protection is advisable. Mounting requires cleaning the seat, aligning the housing and lubricating before closing. Proper internal clearance and careful alignment extend bearing life and prevent vibration.

As for equivalents, insert bearings are interchangeable between brands by series number and shaft dimensions, but each manufacturer may vary the locking system or the sealing. There is no universal table: always compare shaft diameter, inner ring width and locking type. If you need to replace a SEALMASTER with another brand, send us the part number and we will tell you the compatible alternative.
