The SKF Y-bearing of the YEL series is an insert with an extended inner ring and set screw fixing, designed to be mounted in split or pillow block housings. It is used in equipment where a self-aligning bearing is needed, easy to mount and with good protection against contaminants. This variant incorporates a 2DW seal and an AG groove in the outer ring, which allows greasing through the housing. It is a common solution in belt drives, conveyor belts and agricultural machinery.

The designation YEL identifies a Y-bearing with an inner ring extended on both sides. The number that follows, for example 205 or 206, indicates the size: the higher it is, the larger the bore diameter and outer dimensions. The suffix -2DW indicates a low-friction double seal, designed to retain grease and exclude dust and water. The ending /AG refers to a groove in the outer ring for lubricant replenishment. In the examples YEL 205-2DW/AG and YEL 207-104-2DW/AG, the additional number (such as -014 or -104) distinguishes bore diameter variants within the same nominal size.

These inserts are mounted in split, pillow block or flanged housings, and are common in belt conveyors, bucket elevators, mixers, mills, screens and process equipment. In agriculture they appear in seeders, harvesters and fans; in the food industry, in washing and packaging lines. Their self-aligning capability compensates for small mounting errors or shaft deflections, which simplifies maintenance in plants where the shafts are not perfectly rigid.

To choose correctly, verify the shaft diameter and the housing type. The 2DW seal is suitable when there is moderate dust or moisture; if the environment is more aggressive, it is advisable to evaluate additional seals or protectors. The AG groove makes relubrication easier without disassembly, but requires the housing to have the corresponding channel. When mounting, tighten the set screws onto the shaft with the appropriate wrench and verify that the inner ring is well centered. Careful alignment and periodic lubrication extend bearing life.

Y-bearings are interchangeable between manufacturers if the main dimensions match: bore diameter, outer diameter, width and fixing type. The SKF YEL series is usually equivalent to inserts from other brands with designations such as YAR, GY or UC, but you should not rely on the code alone: always compare the dimensions and the sealing system. At MR Accesorios Industriales we can help you find the right equivalent from the measurements or the original part number.
