The SYNT FTS housing is an assembled unit that combines a cast iron housing with an SKF insert bearing. It is used to support rotating shafts in transmission, conveying and process equipment, where a robust, easy-to-mount unit is required. MR Accesorios Industriales supplies this SKF line, backed by more than 80 years in the Argentine industrial market.

The SYNT FTS designation is read in parts: SYNT identifies the category of housings with insert bearing, and FTS indicates a construction variant with specific sealing and fixing characteristics. Examples in the series, such as SYNT 50 FTS, SYNT 65 FTS, SYNT 75 FTS and SYNT 100 FTS, show that the middle number is linked to the shaft size. To choose the correct part number, take the shaft diameter and the load type into account, and consult the SKF product page to confirm dimensions and capacities.

These housings are used in belt conveyors, bucket elevators, mixers, mills, conveyor belts and process equipment in food, chemical, cement and aggregate plants. In Argentina, they are common in the oilseed, meatpacking and mining industries, where a sealed unit that withstands dust, humidity and frequent washdowns is required. Their cast iron housing and sealed insert allow them to be mounted on steel or concrete structures with proper alignment.

To select a SYNT FTS, check the radial and axial load the shaft will bear, the rotation speed and the environmental conditions. The insert seal is key: in dusty or wet environments, additional protection is advisable. Mounting requires the base to be well supported and aligned with the shaft; excessive misalignment shortens bearing life. Insert lubrication is usually permanent, but in severe applications it may require relubrication. Follow SKF instructions for the tightening torque of the fixing bolts.

As for equivalents, insert bearing housings from different brands can be interchanged if the main dimensions match: shaft diameter, distance between fixing holes, height to center and fixing type. It is not enough for the part number to be similar; the mounting drawing and load capacity must be compared. SKF is a world reference, and alternatives from other manufacturers exist on the local market. Always validate interchangeability with the actual measurements before replacing a unit.
