The SKF FYTWK Y is a ready-to-mount unit that combines a cast iron split plummer block housing with a Y-series insert bearing. It supports rotating shafts and allows self-alignment, which suits equipment such as conveyors, fans and agricultural machinery. The bearing locks onto the shaft with set screws, while the housing base bolts to a flat surface. MR Industrial Accessories supplies this line for industrial plants in the United States and Latin America.
The code breaks down into three parts. FYTWK identifies a split plummer block housing made of cast iron. The following digits, as in FYTWK 504 Y, FYTWK 505 Y, FYTWK 506 Y and FYTWK 507 Y, point to the shaft diameter according to the size code. The trailing Y means the insert bearing uses set screws. The WK suffix denotes a design with two holes for fixing and lubrication. Always confirm the exact dimensions in the table for each code before ordering.
Typical applications include belt conveyors, bucket elevators, centrifugal fans, mixers, and machines in food and agricultural processing. Grain plants, meatpacking facilities and packaging lines use them often. Because the housing splits, you can remove or install it without pulling the shaft, which shortens maintenance downtime. Textile and packaging equipment also rely on this design.
Selection depends on shaft diameter and load type. The insert bearing arrives pre-lubricated and protected by lip seals. During mounting, align the housings and tighten the set screws to the recommended torque. Reapply lithium grease at regular intervals to extend service life. Do not strike the bearing, and verify axial clearance after installation.
SKF FYTWK Y housings interchange with other brands that follow the standard for split plummer block housings with insert bearings, including NTN, NSK and FAG. When substituting, compare mounting dimensions and shaft diameter. Designations differ between makers, but the function is the same. MR Industrial Accessories offers the SKF brand within its bearing housing range.

Frequently asked questions
- What does the code FYTWK 505 Y indicate?
- FYTWK stands for a split plummer block housing with a Y-series insert bearing. The digits 505 refer to the shaft diameter per the size code. The final Y shows the bearing is secured with set screws. This SKF coding simplifies matching the unit to your shaft.
- Is the bearing included with the housing?
- Yes. The FYTWK Y comes as a complete assembly: the cast iron split plummer block housing and the Y-series insert bearing are already fitted. You only need to secure it to the shaft and the mounting surface.
- How should these housings be lubricated?
- The insert bearing has a lubrication groove reachable through the housing. Apply lithium grease periodically using a grease fitting. How often depends on operating conditions—more demanding environments require more frequent attention.
