The SKF FYTBK series covers oval flanged Y-bearing units that pair an insert bearing with a housing. They mount quickly, run with factory-set clearance and lubrication, and suit shafts where simple alignment is enough.
The FYTBK designation points to an oval flanged unit with an insert bearing. The following digits define the insert size and the shaft it fits: FYTBK 504, FYTBK 505, FYTBK 506 and FYTBK 507 are examples along that progression. Because each number matches one housing-and-bearing combination, confirm the shaft diameter before ordering.
Typical duties include conveyors, belts, elevators, mixers, fans, and agricultural or food processing equipment. Plants that handle dust, humidity or frequent washdowns often choose these self-aligning units because they tolerate small misalignments and are easy to relubricate. Maintenance crews value the simple mounting that keeps lines running.
When selecting, start with the shaft diameter, then review load type and the working environment. Insert sealing matters: a contact or lip seal gives better protection against dust and water. Clearance and lubrication are set at the factory, so focus on seating the housing correctly and tightening the locking screws to the specified torque. Aligning the shaft with the housing avoids added stress.
FYTBK units can interchange with other brands that share the same standardized dimensions. For replacement, compare the full part number and the key dimensions: shaft diameter, hole spacing and center height. Tolerances and seals differ between series, so verify equivalence before installing. Our team can help confirm the match if you are unsure.

Frequently asked questions
- How do I read the part number FYTBK 504?
- The FYTBK prefix means an oval flanged Y-bearing with insert bearing. The number 504 identifies the insert size and the matching shaft diameter. Each number in the series changes the size, so verify the exact part number before ordering a replacement.
- Where are these bearings used?
- They appear in conveyors, elevators, mixers, fans and process equipment. Food plants, mills and workshops use them because they mount easily and tolerate dust or humidity. Agricultural machinery also relies on self-aligning units of this type.
- How do I choose the right bearing for my shaft?
- Measure the shaft diameter and match it to the part number. Then consider load type and environment to pick the right sealing; a contact seal is better where dirt or water is present. Correct alignment and screw torque also affect performance.
