The SKF SY AFM Y-bearing housing unit with insert bearing is an assembled unit that combines a housing with a ball insert bearing, ready to mount on shafts and fix to the structure. It is used to guide and support rotating shafts in transmission and conveying equipment, where a compact solution with simple alignment is required. MR Accesorios Industriales sells this line as an official brand for industrial applications in Argentina.

The SY AFM series designation is read in parts: SY identifies the category of Y-bearing housing units with insert bearing; the number that follows — as in SY 1.1/4 AFM — indicates the shaft size, which may be expressed in inches or millimeters depending on the case. The suffix AFM indicates a specific construction variant within the series, normally associated with the insert locking type and sealing. To choose the correct part number, take into account the shaft diameter and the suffix shown on the drawing or on the original equipment.

These housing units are used in a wide variety of industries in Argentina: food plants, packaging lines, belt conveyors, milling equipment, mixers, fans and agricultural machinery. Their design allows the shaft to be mounted easily and absorbs small misalignments, which simplifies maintenance in equipment where access is limited. They are also used in applications with moderate loads and medium speeds, typical of industrial power transmission.

To correctly select a SY AFM housing unit, check the shaft diameter, the type of load (radial, axial or combined) and the environmental conditions. The insert sealing must be suitable for the level of dust, humidity or washdown present. During mounting, ensure a flat, clean surface, align the housing with the shaft and tighten the insert locking screws to the recommended torque. Lifetime or periodic lubrication will depend on the variant; follow the manufacturer's instructions.

Regarding equivalences and interchangeability, Y-bearing housing units with insert bearing from different brands often share standardized dimensions, but may vary in locking system, sealing and load capacity. Do not assume that a part number from another brand directly replaces the SKF SY AFM without verifying the main dimensions and the insert type. If you need an alternative, consult us with the equipment data and we will help you find the right option.
