A Y-bearing insert is a ball bearing built with a spherical outer ring plus a locking system, so it can sit inside a split plummer block or a flanged housing. The INA VKE KTT line fits equipment where the shaft runs on simple supports and where fast installation, along with decent protection against dust and moisture, matters. MR Industrial Accessories LLC supplies this line to customers throughout the United States and in several Latin American countries, and can help you pin down the right part number.

Reading the code is the first step. VKE marks the insert family; the figure after it, as in VKE28-209-KTT-B-GA47/70, points to the size and the shaft diameter it fits. KTT covers the sealing arrangement, B refers to a variant of the outer ring, and GA plus its trailing numbers describes the locking setup and the tolerances. Every letter-and-number combination is a distinct part number, so copy it in full when you ask for a quote.

Typical mounting is in split plummer block, pillow block or flanged housings, and these inserts turn up in belt conveyors, sorting belts, elevators, mixers and other process equipment. Food plants, meat processing, aggregate operations, mills and packaging lines are common settings, since those areas bring dust, moisture or regular washdowns. Because the outer ring is spherical and the housing splits, small shaft misalignments are absorbed without precision machining.

When choosing an insert, work from the shaft diameter, the locking method (set screw, eccentric or adapter sleeve) and the sealing the environment calls for. Use the lubricant specified for the working temperature, mount onto a clean shaft with no burrs, and tighten the locking evenly. Aligning the housing first and applying a moderate load while tightening helps avoid deformation and supports bearing life.

Inserts come from several brands, each with its own nomenclature, and interchangeability hinges on matching shaft diameter, outer dimensions and locking type. A similar-looking part number is not enough; dimensions and sealing configuration have to be checked. Send the original number, or the one printed on the equipment, and the team will cross-reference it against the INA range.

To replace a VKE KTT insert, send the complete part number — VKE28-209-KTT-B-GA47/70, for instance — or your shaft and housing dimensions by WhatsApp or email. The team replies promptly, quotes the item and helps confirm the variant suits your equipment.
