The SKF Y-bearing of the PER.GW SPP series is an insert bearing with a spherical outer ring and set screw locking. It is used in equipment where the shaft rotates and the split housing or pillow block remains fixed, such as conveyors, fans or belts. Its design allows it to be mounted directly on commercial shafts and to compensate for minor misalignments. MR Accesorios Industriales carries this line as an official brand so you can solve power transmission applications with a standard component and fast replacement.

The designation of this series combines letters that identify the bearing type and its variants. PER indicates a Y-bearing insert with a spherical outer ring. GW indicates the variant with set screw locking on the inner ring. SPP corresponds to an execution with specific sealing and particular tolerances. The number that follows — as in the example PER.GW208SPP17 — defines the bore diameter and the overall size. Knowing these suffixes allows you to order the exact replacement without confusing versions with a different type of locking or sealing.

These bearings are found in material handling equipment, packaging lines, industrial fans and agricultural machinery. In Argentina they are common in food plants, meatpacking plants, tanneries and logistics warehouses, where split plummer block housings or cast iron housings seat the bearing and facilitate mounting on long shafts. They also appear in mixers, screens and bucket elevators. The combination of a spherical ring and screw locking simplifies field replacement when the shaft is already mounted and the entire line cannot be disassembled.

To select the right Y-bearing, check the shaft diameter and the type of locking your equipment requires. The PER.GW series uses set screws, which requires a shaft with compatible hardness and tolerance so the screws do not slip. Check the sealing: the SPP variant is designed for environments with moderate dust or moisture. During mounting, align the housing and avoid striking the outer ring. Lubricate according to the duty cycle and check the axial clearance. Poor alignment or excessive tightening of the screws shortens bearing life.

Y-bearings are interchangeable between manufacturers if the main dimensions match: bore diameter, outer diameter, width and type of locking. Series with equivalent suffixes usually share dimensions, but sealing, permissible load or ring material may vary. Do not replace one bearing with another based only on the series number; always compare the dimensions and the type of locking. If in doubt, the complete code engraved on the original bearing is the safest reference for ordering the replacement.
