The SKF Y-bearing YAJ 2RF series is an insert bearing with spherical outer ring and set screw locking, designed to be mounted in split or pillow block housings. It is used in equipment where alignment is not perfect and a robust, easy-to-mount unit is required. MR Accesorios Industriales supplies this line as an official brand, with technical advice to choose the correct size.
The designation of the YAJ 2RF series reads as follows: YAJ identifies the series of Y-bearings with set screw locking on the inner ring; 2RF indicates double contact seal, one on each side. Examples YAJ 214-2RF, YAJ 215-2RF and YAJ 215-215-2RF show the numeric suffix that defines the bore diameter and, in some cases, dimensional variants. To correctly interpret each code, consult the manufacturer's dimension table or send us the complete code.
These bearings are used in conveyors, bucket elevators, mixers, mills, belt conveyors and process equipment in the food, chemical, cement and aggregate industries. In Argentina they are common in animal feed plants, meat processing plants and waste treatment plants, where the environment demands effective sealing and resistance to contamination. Their design allows mounting in standard split housings, which simplifies maintenance and replacement.
To select the appropriate Y-bearing, consider the shaft diameter, the type of load (radial, axial or combined) and the environmental conditions. The 2RF seal protects against dust and moisture, but if there is exposure to liquids or frequent washdowns, evaluate additional seals or covers. Mounting must be done on a ground shaft with the correct tolerance; the set screws are tightened to the recommended torque to prevent slipping. Factory lubrication is usually sufficient, but in severe applications periodic relubrication may be required.
Regarding equivalences, SKF Y-bearings can be interchanged with those of other brands that follow the same dimension standard. The YAJ 2RF series is similar to the YAR, YET or YEL series from other manufacturers, but always verify the dimensions and locking type before replacing. Not all suffixes mean the same across brands, so comparison must be made with the complete designation and actual dimensions.
If you need to replace a Y-bearing in your equipment, send us the complete code via WhatsApp to MR Accesorios Industriales. We will quote the exact size and advise you on the most convenient alternative for your application.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What does the 2RF suffix mean in a Y-bearing?
- The 2RF suffix indicates that the bearing has a double contact seal, one on each side. This improves lubricant retention and protection against dust and moisture, extending service life in contaminated environments.
- How do I choose the right Y-bearing for my equipment?
- You need to know the shaft diameter, the type of load and the working conditions. The housing where it is mounted also matters. With that data, we can recommend the exact series and code.
- Are SKF Y-bearings interchangeable with other brands?
- In general, yes, as long as they share the same dimensions and locking type. But verify the dimensions and sealing, because suffixes can vary between manufacturers. Consult us if you have doubts.
