The SKF SYFWK series Y-bearing housed unit is an assembled unit that combines a bearing housing with an insert bearing, ready to mount on drive shafts. It is used to guide and support rotating shafts in equipment where simple fixing and proper alignment are required. MR Accesorios Industriales sells this line as part of its range of components for assembly and power transmission.
The SYFWK designation reads as a category of Y-bearing housed units: the initial letters identify the type of unit, and the number that follows —as in SYFWK 506 L or SYFWK 507 L— indicates the size of the bearing and the shaft for which it is intended. The L suffix usually indicates a sealing or insert configuration variant. To choose the correct part number, have the shaft diameter and the type of fixing your equipment needs at hand.
These housed units appear in conveyors, belts, elevators, mixers, fans and process lines in food, chemical and materials plants. In Argentina they are found in grain handling equipment, feed plants and aggregate handling systems, where ruggedness and ease of mounting are key to reducing downtime.
To select the housed unit, check the shaft diameter, the type of load (radial, axial or combined) and the environmental conditions: dust, humidity or frequent washdowns require tighter seals. Mounting must be done on a flat, rigid surface, with the bolts tightened in a cross pattern to prevent distortion. Insert lubrication is permanent in most cases, but it is advisable to check clearance and alignment after the first hours of operation.
As for equivalents, Y-bearing housed units from different brands share standardized dimensions, but they may differ in the sealing system, insert tolerance or the method of fixing to the shaft. Comparing the part number alone is not enough: dimensional and functional interchangeability must be verified. If you have doubts, send us the original part number and the shaft dimensions.
MR Accesorios Industriales sells the SKF brand as part of its line of housed units and bearings. If you need to replace an SYFWK 506 L, an SYFWK 507 L or any other size in the series, write to us on WhatsApp with the part number and the shaft dimensions. We will send you a quote.
