Description
SKF FYC 505 belongs to y-bearing unit, part of our Bearing housings range. Tell us how many you need by WhatsApp or email and we'll get back to you promptly with a quote for FYC 505 and any equivalents.
The FYC housing is a cast iron housing combined with an insert bearing that has a spherical outer ring, allowing it to handle minor misalignment. It supports rotating shafts in equipment where mounting must be straightforward and robust. MR supplies SKF, with options for various shaft sizes. To replace an existing housing, send the part number and we will quote it.
The FYC code denotes a series of wall-mounted housings with insert bearings. The following number, such as in FYC 504 or FYC 508, indicates the bearing size and the shaft diameter it fits. The housing part number and the insert bearing part number are separate; the assembly arrives pre-assembled and balanced. Provide the complete part number when ordering to get the correct item.
Typical applications include conveyors, mixers, fans, mills and process equipment in food, chemical and materials industries. In humid or dusty settings, the cast iron housing handles moderate loads and the spherical insert compensates for mounting or shaft deflection misalignment.
When selecting, confirm the shaft diameter and the insert locking method (set screw, eccentric or adapter sleeve). The insert seal determines suitability for wet or dusty conditions: single lip and double lip versions are available. During installation, place the housing on a flat surface and align the shafts before tightening the screws. Lubricate as specified for the insert type and verify axial clearance.
SKF FYC housings can be interchanged with other brands that follow the same dimensional standard. A wall-mounted housing with a spherical insert of similar diameter and locking type is often replaceable, but always check the housing dimensions and center height. MR Industrial Accessories supplies SKF and other brands and can advise on a suitable equivalent.
If you have the housing or insert bearing part number, send it via WhatsApp to MR Industrial Accessories. We will quote the part. We can also help if you need to change the locking system or improve sealing for a demanding environment.

Frequently asked questions
- How do I identify the correct FYC housing?
- You need the shaft diameter and the insert bearing part number. If you have the old housing, provide the stamped part number. We verify the size and locking type and quote via WhatsApp.
- Can I replace a housing from another brand with an SKF one?
- Often yes, if the housing dimensions and shaft diameter match. The insert bearing alone is not enough: compare the center height and mounting holes. Contact us with the dimensions.
- What maintenance does this housing require?
- Regularly check the mounting screws, seal condition and insert lubrication. In humid or dusty environments, inspect more frequently. Replace an insert that shows play or noise.
