An SKF Y-bearing insert unit arrives as a ready-to-mount assembly: a plummer block housing paired with a Y-series insert bearing. It suits rotating shafts where installation needs to be fast, alignment straightforward and radial load capacity reasonable. Typical settings include conveyors, fans, process lines and agricultural equipment. MR Industrial Accessories LLC supplies this line and helps buyers match the variant to shaft size and locking method.
Break the designation PER.UK208-B into its components. PER points to the split plummer block housing. UK signals an insert bearing that locks through a tapered adapter. The digits 208 set the assembly size. The trailing -B marks a housing construction variant, usually tied to sealing arrangement or housing shape. Before ordering, check the number against the manufacturer's table to confirm the exact equivalent.
These units show up on belt conveyors, bucket elevators, mixers, centrifugal fans and milling equipment, as well as seeders and combine harvesters where mounting speed and tolerance to slight misalignment matter. Because the bearing and housing come assembled, maintenance is simpler: swap the whole unit instead of reconditioning the housing.
Selection rests on three points. Shaft diameter comes first. Locking type comes next; a tapered adapter lets you mount on commercial shafting without extra machining. Sealing follows the environment. Where dust, water or frequent washdown is present, extra protection is worth considering. Use the lubricant specified for insert bearings, and seat the housing flat and aligned with the shaft.
Equivalent nomenclatures exist across several brands. Whether one unit substitutes for another depends on housing dimensions, shaft diameter and locking system, and not every series interchanges. Verify critical dimensions before a swap. Send the original code and a photo of the assembly and we can point you to the right unit.

Frequently asked questions
- What does the code PER.UK208-B mean?
- PER stands for a plummer block housing, UK for an insert bearing with tapered adapter locking, and 208 for the size. The -B suffix identifies a housing variant. Send the full code and we will verify the exact equivalent.
- How do I know if this unit replaces the one I have mounted?
- Check the shaft diameter, the mounting hole spacing and the height to center, plus the bearing locking type. Send a photo and those dimensions and we will help identify the compatible unit.
- What lubrication does the insert bearing require?
- These bearings are factory-lubricated for their service life under normal conditions. In demanding environments, inspect the sealing and relubricate per your equipment maintenance plan. Contact us if you need guidance.
