The SE series SKF split plummer block housing is a bearing mounting component split into two halves, which allows it to be mounted or replaced without disassembling the shaft or the transmission. It is used in equipment where access is limited and downtime must be minimal. MR Accesorios Industriales carries this line as a brand, backed by experience in the industrial sector.
The designation of SE series SKF split plummer block housings is interpreted as follows: SE indicates that it is a split plummer block housing of the SE series; the first three-digit number corresponds to the shaft diameter for which it is intended, and the second number, when it appears separated by a hyphen, indicates a size or design variant. The suffix K followed by a digit refers to the type of fixing or the bearing locking system. For example, SE 509 K7 is a housing for a 45 mm shaft with K7 fixing; SE 511-609 K7 and SE 512-610 K7 are variants with two associated sizes, typical of assemblies with bearings of different section. Always verify the complete code on the drawing or on the equipment nameplate.
These housings are used in a wide variety of industries in Argentina: food and beverage plants, cement plants, steel mills, paper mills, mining, aggregate processing and material handling. They are common in belt conveyors, bucket elevators, mixers, mills, large centrifugal pumps and industrial fans. Their split design facilitates maintenance on equipment where the bearing is mounted on a long shaft or in a hard-to-reach position, since it allows the top cover to be removed without moving the assembly. They are also used in applications where the housing must absorb combined loads and a certain misalignment.
To correctly select an SE split plummer block housing, take into account the shaft diameter, the type of bearing it will house, the radial and axial load, and the environmental conditions. Sealing is key: in environments with dust, humidity or frequent washdowns, it is advisable to choose suitable labyrinths or seals. Lubrication must be compatible with the bearing and renewed according to the maintenance plan. During mounting, ensure precise alignment between the two halves and uniform tightening of the bolts to avoid deformation. The bearing internal clearance must not be modified when closing the housing.
Regarding equivalences and interchangeability, SE series SKF split plummer block housings can replace others of similar construction and dimensions, but there is no universal table: each manufacturer defines its own diameters, center heights and fixing systems. Therefore, before replacing a housing, compare the critical dimensions — shaft diameter, bolt spacing, center height — and the type of bearing accepted. MR Accesorios Industriales can help you find the equivalent reference within its housing line, without compromising equipment operation.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What does the K suffix mean in an SE housing?
- The K suffix indicates the type of fixing or locking that the housing has to secure the bearing. It can vary depending on the design and the manufacturer. To confirm the exact meaning in your application, consult MR Accesorios Industriales by providing the complete code.
- Can a split plummer block housing be mounted without disassembling the shaft?
- Yes, that is its main advantage. Being split into two halves, it is placed around the shaft without the need to remove pulleys, couplings or other components. This reduces downtime and simplifies maintenance on hard-to-reach equipment.
- How do I choose the right split plummer block housing for my equipment?
- You need to know the shaft diameter, the bearing type, the loads and the environmental conditions. Also verify the required alignment and sealing. At MR Accesorios Industriales we advise you with that data so you can select the correct housing.
