The LINK-BELT 200 series insert bearing is a ball bearing with an extended inner ring, made to sit in split plummer block housings and in wall or hanger units. It suits equipment where you need to align, mount or remove the bearing without pulling the whole shaft apart.

Reading the 200 series code is straightforward once you know the blocks: the leading letters point to the insert family, the digits that follow give the shaft diameter, and the suffixes tell you how the insert locks to the shaft and how it seals. A full reference such as YB2B08NL, for instance, pairs the series prefix with size code 08 and the endings that define fixing and sealing. Order with the complete part number and you get the exact replacement.

You will find these inserts on belt conveyors, bucket elevators, mixers, mills, screens and other process equipment. Plants handling food, cement, mining, paper and agricultural work often rely on them, because dusty or damp conditions call for dependable sealing and a mounting that tolerates slight misalignment.

Selection comes down to three points: shaft diameter, fixing method (set screw, eccentric or adapter) and the sealing the environment demands. Installation takes place on the split plummer block housing, with the insert seated squarely and the shaft clean and free of burrs. Lubrication and internal clearance are set at the factory, so the main precaution is to avoid impacts on the outer ring while fitting.

Interchange is possible across manufacturers in the 200 series by shaft diameter and fixing type, but each brand uses its own part number. Measurements alone are not enough: check the radius, the inner ring width and the seal position. Send the shaft dimensions and a photo of the housing and we can point you to the right option.
