The SKF PER.UC-C Y-bearing insert is a single-row bearing with an extended inner ring that locks onto the shaft with set screws. It mounts quickly on solid shafts without special machining, which makes it a practical choice for conveyors, agricultural equipment and general industrial machinery. MR Industrial Accessories LLC supplies this series and can help you match the right part number to your application.

Reading the code helps you order correctly. PER identifies a Y-bearing insert; UC means the inner ring is extended and secured by set screws; -C denotes a sealing variant. The digits that follow give the size. For instance, PER.UC204-C and PER.UC204-12-C share the same shaft diameter, but the -12 suffix indicates an inch shaft. The same pattern applies to PER.UC206-C and PER.UC206-19-C, and to PER.UC207-C and PER.UC207-23-C. The full number tells you both shaft size and locking method.

Typical installations include belt conveyors, bucket elevators, mixers, fans, food-processing lines and farm equipment, as well as packaging systems and in-plant transport. The spherical outer ring accommodates a degree of misalignment when the insert sits in a split plummer block housing or a take-up unit, which eases assembly and lowers the need for precise alignment between supports.

Selection depends on shaft diameter, load direction (radial, axial or combined) and the working environment. The -C variant uses contact seals that keep grease in and contaminants out. Set screw locking calls for a solid, clean shaft: tighten the screws with the correct wrench and confirm the inner ring is centered. Under heavy vibration, check the fit at regular intervals. Factory grease usually suffices, but in damp or hot conditions follow your maintenance schedule.

Interchange is possible with Y-bearing inserts from other makers that have an extended inner ring and set screw locking, provided the main dimensions and locking style match. Do not rely on the part number alone: confirm shaft diameter, overall width and screw thread. Sealing and internal clearance can differ between manufacturers. If you are unsure, send the shaft measurements and a photo of the old bearing.

To replace a Y-bearing insert, message us on WhatsApp with the complete part number, such as PER.UC208-C or PER.UC210-31-C. MR Industrial Accessories LLC will quote and suggest compatible alternatives. We supply SKF and can advise you so the installation goes smoothly.
