The SEALMASTER SFC series Y-bearing unit combines an insert bearing with a circular piloted flange housing, forming a compact assembly that mounts directly onto a flat surface to support and guide rotating shafts. It is designed for equipment that needs a secure front mounting and straightforward alignment. MR Industrial Accessories supplies this line to plants and workshops across the United States and Latin America.

The SFC series code follows a simple structure: the letters denote the piloted flange housing type, and the following number indicates the nominal shaft diameter. In references such as SFC-20R and SFC-32R, the R suffix identifies the insert variant within the same family. To select the correct unit, begin with the shaft diameter and the mounting configuration your equipment accepts.

These units are commonly found in belt conveyors, mixers, fans, centrifugal pumps, and process lines in food, chemical, and aggregate processing plants. The piloted flange centers the unit on the mounting surface and simplifies replacement during scheduled maintenance, without the need for machining the housing.

When choosing, consider shaft diameter, load type, and environmental conditions. The insert seal determines the level of contamination the unit can tolerate; in dusty or wet environments, additional protection is recommended. Use the lubrication specified for the insert and relubricate according to the duty cycle. During assembly, ensure the mounting surface is clean and flat, and that the flange seats without forcing to avoid shaft misalignment.

Interchangeability between brands of Y-bearing units with insert bearings is based on main dimensions: shaft diameter, distance between flange holes, and pilot diameter. A similar series name is not sufficient. At MR Industrial Accessories, we identify the compatible alternative that matches those dimensions and the sealing type your equipment requires.

To request a quote, send the housing part number, shaft diameter, and a photo of the flange if available via WhatsApp. With that information, we quote the SEALMASTER SFC series reference or the equivalent option that best fits your application. Our team also answers technical questions about housings and mounted bearings for industry.
