TSN LA covers are closure components for split bearing housings. They are placed on the housing to protect the bearing from dust, moisture and projections, and to retain the lubricant inside. They are part of the SKF accessories line that MR Accesorios Industriales supplies in Buenos Aires, Argentina. They are ordered by code and are used in equipment where the bearing operates exposed to contaminated environments.
The TSN LA designation is read as a family of covers for housings: TSN identifies the type of accessory and LA indicates the closure variant. The numbers that appear in the examples, such as in TSN 513 LA or TSN 515 LA, correlate with the size of the housing for which they are intended. They are not measurements that can be deduced from the code without a table: therefore, to choose the correct cover, you must start from the housing you already have mounted or from the bearing you are going to install.
These covers are used in split bearing housings that operate in industrial plants, mills, conveyor belts, pumps, fans and process equipment. In Argentina they are commonly found in production line maintenance, in the field and in food plants, where washing and dust require reliable sealing. The cover prevents contaminants from reaching the bearing and grease from escaping, which extends the life of the assembly and reduces downtime.
To select the cover, take into account the type of housing, the shaft diameter and the working environment. The sealing can be simple or labyrinth, depending on exposure to dust or water. Verify that the cover seats well on the housing and does not interfere with shaft rotation. Lubrication and bearing alignment also influence: a poorly mounted cover can cause rubbing or let contaminants pass. If you have doubts, send us the housing code and we will help you define the cover.
Regarding equivalences, SKF TSN LA covers can replace other closure systems for split housings, but interchangeability depends on the housing dimensions and the type of fixing. Not all brands use the same nomenclature or the same measurements. Therefore, before replacing one cover with another, compare the housing code and consult with us: we will confirm if the cover you need is compatible.
If you already know the cover code or the housing code, send it on WhatsApp to MR Accesorios Industriales and we will send you the quote. We work with the SKF accessories line and can guide you if you need to assemble the complete set: housing, bearing, cover and lubrication. Write to us with the code and the type of equipment, and we will respond shortly.

Frequently Asked Questions
- How do I know which TSN LA cover corresponds to my housing?
- You need the housing code or the shaft diameter. The cover is chosen by size and type of closure. Send us that data on WhatsApp and we will indicate the corresponding TSN LA code.
- Are TSN LA covers suitable for dusty or wet environments?
- Yes, they are designed to protect the bearing from contaminants. For very demanding environments, consult us about variants with reinforced sealing. The choice depends on the type of exposure and the equipment.
- Can I replace a cover from another brand with a TSN LA?
- Sometimes yes, but it depends on the housing dimensions and the fixing system. There is no universal equivalence. Send us the original cover code and we will confirm if the TSN LA is compatible.
