The SKF SD split housing is a bearing mounting component that is mounted on shafts and supports radial load in rotating equipment. Its two-piece design facilitates assembly and disassembly without completely dismantling the shaft, which simplifies maintenance. It is used in applications requiring robustness and precise alignment, such as conveyors, mills and industrial machines. MR Accesorios Industriales sells this line as an official brand.

The designation of SD housings combines letters and numbers that indicate size and configuration. For example, SD 16X24X3 indicates metric dimensions: 16 mm bore diameter, 24 mm outer diameter and 3 mm width. In contrast, SD 3138 and SD 3140 correspond to series with inch measurements or internal codes. Suffixes may indicate sealing or mounting variants, but it is always advisable to verify the complete part number with our technical team to ensure compatibility.

These housings are used in industries such as food, cement, mining and materials handling. In Argentina, they are common in grain conveyors, flour mills, aggregate processing plants and process equipment. Their split construction allows the bearing to be replaced without dismantling the shaft, reducing downtime. They are also used in industrial fans and large centrifugal pumps, where alignment and resistance to combined loads are critical.

To select the appropriate housing, take into account the shaft diameter, radial and axial load, and environmental conditions. Sealing is key: in dusty or humid environments, choose versions with additional seals. Lubrication must be compatible with the bearing and operating temperatures. During assembly, ensure correct alignment between the halves and uniform tightening of the bolts to avoid deformation. Cleaning the contact surfaces prevents premature failures.

Regarding equivalences, SKF SD housings can be interchanged with products from other brands that follow the same dimensional standard. However, not all part numbers are directly replaceable: always verify the critical dimensions and the mounting type. MR Accesorios Industriales sells the SKF brand as part of its housing line, and also offers in-house manufacturing alternatives for specific needs. Ask us about interchangeability before replacing a component.

If you already have the part number of the housing you need, send it by WhatsApp to MR Accesorios Industriales and we will quote it.
