TER end covers are closure components for split bearing housings. They are fitted at the ends of the housing to retain lubricant, prevent the entry of contaminants and protect the bearing. Their design allows mounting on rotating shafts and they adapt to different sealing configurations depending on the application. At MR Accesorios Industriales we supply them as part of our line of accessories for SKF housings.
The designation TER identifies this family of end covers. The number that follows, as in TER 517/2-15/16 C, indicates the size and the constructional variant: the first part is linked to the nominal diameter of the shaft or housing, and the final suffix indicates design particularities, such as the type of seal or the mounting method. To choose the correct end cover, it is essential to cross-reference that part number with the dimensions of the housing and the shaft.
These end covers are used in equipment with split housings: conveyors, pumps, fans, mills, mixers and process machinery in food, cement, mining and aggregate processing plants. In Argentina they are common in installations where the environment has dust, moisture or frequent washdowns, and the bearing needs to be protected without disassembling the entire assembly.
To select the end cover, verify the shaft diameter, the housing type and the available space. The seal can be lip, felt or labyrinth type; each offers different resistance to contamination and speed. Mounting requires aligning the end cover with the shaft and fastening it without forcing, ensuring that the lip is correctly seated. The lubricant must be compatible with the seal material.
SKF TER end covers can be interchanged with those of other manufacturers that follow the same split housing standard, but the equivalence is not automatic: dimensions, fastening type and sealing must be compared. It is not enough for the part number to be similar. If you have doubts, send us the complete part number and the housing dimensions.
At MR Accesorios Industriales we supply SKF TER end covers as part of our line of accessories for housings. If you need a quote, write to us via WhatsApp with the exact part number, the housing brand and the shaft dimensions. That way we can confirm the variant that corresponds to your equipment.

Frequently Asked Questions
- How do I know which TER end cover I need?
- You need the complete part number of the end cover and the dimensions of the housing and the shaft. The TER part number includes the size and the sealing variant. If you do not have it, send us the equipment data and we will help you identify it.
- Do TER end covers fit any split housing?
- No. Each end cover is designed for a specific size and type of housing. Even if the part number is similar, the diameter, the fastening system or the sealing may differ. Dimensional compatibility must always be verified.
- What is the difference between an end cover with a lip seal and a labyrinth seal?
- The lip seal is simpler and retains grease better in dry environments. The labyrinth seal offers greater protection against dust and water, but requires more space. The choice depends on the working conditions and the shaft speed.
