The SKF SY..TR Y-bearing unit with insert bearing is an assembled unit that combines a cast iron housing with an insert ball bearing, ready to mount on shafts and fix to the structure. It is used to transmit radial loads in low and medium demand equipment, with simple alignment and reduced maintenance. MR Accesorios Industriales supplies this line as part of its range of bearings and mounting accessories.
The designation SY … TR reads as follows: SY identifies the category of Y-bearing units with insert bearing, the number that follows indicates the shaft diameter in millimeters (for example, SY 35 TR for a 35 mm shaft) and the suffix TR indicates a construction variant within the series, generally associated with the type of fixing of the insert to the shaft. Examples in the series are SY 35 TR, SY 50 TR, SY 55 TR, SY 60 TR and SY 65 TR, all with the same designation logic. For other sizes, check the complete part number.
These units are used in conveyors, belts, elevators, mixers, fans, pumps and agro-industrial or food machinery. In Argentina they are common in food and beverage plants, cold storage facilities, mills and metallurgical establishments, where an economical and quick-mounting support on rotating shafts is needed. Their cast iron housing and ball insert allow absorbing minor misalignments and tolerating moderate radial loads. They are also used in aggregate processing equipment and packaging lines.
To select the unit, first verify the shaft diameter and the type of load (predominantly radial). Check the condition of the shaft surface: it must be clean, free of burrs and with the appropriate tolerance for the insert. During mounting, ensure alignment of the fixing holes and tighten the screws evenly. Insert lubrication is usually permanent or relubricable depending on the model; if relubricable, follow the maintenance plan. The insert seal protects against dust and moisture, but in highly contaminated environments additional protections should be evaluated.
Y-bearing units with insert bearing are interchangeable between brands in terms of main dimensions and capacity, as long as the shaft diameter, fixing type and housing dimensions match. When replacing, compare the complete part number and critical dimensions; it is not enough for the shaft number to match. If in doubt, the original part number of the unit or the insert bearing is the best reference to find an equivalent. At MR Accesorios Industriales we can guide you with the SKF designation and compatible alternatives.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What does the TR suffix mean in an SKF SY unit?
- The TR suffix indicates a construction variant within the SY series, generally linked to the system for fixing the insert bearing to the shaft. It does not change the shaft diameter or the main dimensions of the unit, but it can influence the mounting method and interchangeability with other brands.
- How do I choose the right Y-bearing unit for my shaft?
- First measure the shaft diameter in millimeters and verify that it matches the number in the designation. Then evaluate the type of load and the environmental conditions. If the shaft is worn or the load is high, consult us to evaluate a more robust alternative.
- Are SKF SY..TR units interchangeable with other brands?
- In general yes, as long as the shaft diameter, housing dimensions and fixing type match. Do not rely only on the shaft number: compare the complete part number and critical dimensions. If you have the original part number, send it to us and we will help you find the equivalent.
