The SKF SYFL TH Y-bearing housing with insert bearing is an assembled unit that combines a housing unit with a Y-bearing insert. It is used to support rotating shafts in equipment where simple alignment and quick mounting are required. The three-bolt flange allows it to be fastened to metal structures or masonry. MR Accesorios Industriales carries this line as part of its range of bearing housings.
The SYFL TH designation is read in parts: SY identifies the Y-bearing housing category, F indicates the flange shape with mounting holes and L indicates a lightweight or lower-height design variant. The TH suffix corresponds to a specific execution of the insert, generally linked to the type of sealing or the housing material. The examples in the series, such as SYFL 20 TH, SYFL 30 TH and SYFL 35 TH, show that the middle number refers to the shaft diameter for which the housing is intended.
These housings are used in belt conveyors, bucket elevators, mixers, fans and packaging lines. In Argentina they are common in food plants, cement plants, tanneries and agricultural facilities, where the environment may be humid or dusty. The three-bolt flange makes installation on folded sheet metal or profiles easier, and the insert bearing tolerates slight misalignments without losing performance.
To select the housing, check that the shaft diameter matches the series number and that the load capacity of the insert is suitable for the application. The sealing of the insert must be chosen according to the level of contamination: in environments with water or fine particles, a seal with an additional lip is advisable. During mounting, ensure that the flange rests flat and that the bolts are tightened in a cross pattern. The lubrication of the insert is usually permanent, but under severe conditions it may require replenishment.
Y-bearing housings with insert bearings from different brands are usually interchangeable if they share flange dimensions, shaft diameter and mounting type. Equivalent lines from other manufacturers may differ in the sealing or the housing material, so it is important to compare the complete designation before replacing. Not all suffixes mean the same thing between brands, and one letter can change the type of seal or the working temperature.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What does the TH suffix mean in the SYFL housing?
- The TH suffix identifies a particular execution of the insert within the SYFL series. It may be related to the type of sealing or the housing material. To confirm the exact characteristic of a part number such as SYFL 20 TH, consult us via WhatsApp with the complete designation.
- How do I choose the right shaft diameter for this housing?
- The number that appears in the designation, for example 20, 30 or 35, indicates the shaft diameter in millimeters for which the housing is intended. Check the actual shaft measurement with a caliper before ordering the replacement. If you have doubts, send us the part number and the measurement.
- Can it be mounted in any position?
- The three-bolt flange allows it to be fastened in different orientations, but the ideal position depends on the load and on access for lubrication. It is generally mounted with the insert aligned to the shaft and the flange resting flat. Consult the mounting drawing if the application is critical.
