The SKF Y-bearing is an insert bearing with a spherical outer ring and a bore that is secured to the shaft by set screws or eccentric collar, depending on the model. It is mounted inside split or pillow block housings and forms a ready-to-operate unit. Its self-aligning design absorbs small misalignments and makes it ideal for transmission, conveying and material handling equipment where mounting must be simple and maintenance quick.
The designation of these Y-bearings combines the basic number with suffixes that indicate the type of sealing. In the series 1726203-2RS1, 1726204-2RS1 and 1726205-2RS1, the numeric prefix identifies the size and design of the insert, while the suffix 2RS1 indicates double nitrile contact sealing on both sides. This sealing protects against dust, chips and splashes, and retains the built-in lubrication. The examples 1726206-2RS1 to 1726210-2RS1 follow the same logic: the higher the number, the larger the bore size and load capacity.
These Y-bearings are used in belt conveyors, bucket elevators, mixers, screens, packaging lines and agricultural equipment. In Argentina they appear frequently in food plants, cement plants, quarries and logistics warehouses, where the environment has dust or humidity and a bearing that withstands without frequent lubrication is needed. They are also common in woodworking, ceramics and aggregate processing machinery, always mounted in split or pillow block housings that MR Accesorios Industriales carries together with the bearing.
To choose correctly, verify the shaft diameter and the type of fastening: some have set screws on the inner ring or an eccentric collar. The 2RS1 sealing is suitable in dirty or washdown environments; if there is a lot of water, consider additional housing covers. When mounting, align the housing with the shaft, tighten the screws with the correct wrench and avoid striking the outer ring. Lubrication comes from the factory, but in service it is advisable to check the condition of the sealing and relubricate if the housing allows it.
Regarding interchangeability, Y-bearings are identified by their bore diameter, width and type of fastening. Different brands use their own nomenclatures, so equivalence is established by comparing those dimensions and the sealing style, not just the code. If you have the old number stamped on the bearing or housing, send it: with that, the equivalent reference can be found within the SKF line that MR carries.
If you need to replace a Y-bearing, send the complete code via WhatsApp to MR Accesorios Industriales. With the number and a photo of the housing, the reference can be confirmed and the quote prepared.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What does the 2RS1 suffix mean on an SKF Y-bearing?
- It indicates double nitrile contact sealing on both sides of the bearing. This sealing retains the built-in lubricant and blocks dust, wash water and particles, which is why it is recommended in dirty or humid environments where relubrication is not frequent.
- How do I know what size Y-bearing I need?
- Measure the shaft diameter where it is mounted and the width of the insert. Also check whether the housing uses set screws or an eccentric collar. With those measurements and the old code, the equivalent reference can be identified.
- Can a Y-bearing from another brand be mounted in the same housing?
- In many cases yes, as long as the bore diameter, width and type of fastening match. Interchangeability is defined by measurements and sealing style, not by the code. Send us the measurements or the bearing number and we will verify it.
