The SKF RLYE A Y-bearing is an insert with an extended inner ring that locks to the shaft with set screws, and it mounts in split or pillow block housings. It suits equipment running at moderate speeds with mostly radial loads, including conveyors, fans and mixers. MR Industrial Accessories supplies this series and can help you match the right part number to your application.
Reading the RLYE A code: RLYE indicates a Y-bearing with an extended inner ring and set screw locking, while the A at the end marks a construction variant. The three digits in the middle set the bore diameter and main dimensions. When ordering a replacement, give the full part number exactly as shown on the nameplate or equipment drawing.
These inserts are used in split, pillow block and flanged housings. Typical installations include belt conveyors, bucket elevators, mills, mixers and industrial fans, as well as low-speed transmission shafts that need a simple, robust support. In plants where maintenance is done with the equipment stopped and quick interchangeability matters, they are a common choice.
Selection depends on shaft diameter, load type (radial, axial or combined) and environmental conditions. In dusty or wet areas, effective sealing is advisable; if the shaft tends to deflect, check the internal clearance. During mounting, clean the shaft seat, tighten the set screws to the recommended torque and lubricate for the operating regime. Aligning the housing carefully avoids parasitic stresses and supports service life.
Y-bearings are interchangeable between manufacturers when dimensions, locking system and sealing match. A similar part number is not enough: compare bore diameter, overall width, locking type and lubrication hole position. If you are unsure, send a photo of the part and the shaft measurements, and the team can confirm the corresponding reference.
To request a quote for the SKF RLYE A series Y-bearing, send the full part number and the quantity you need by WhatsApp or email.

Frequently asked questions
- How do I identify the correct part number for an RLYE A Y-bearing?
- Check the outer ring or the housing nameplate for the engraved part number. The RLYE A series includes a number that defines the bore diameter. If you cannot find it, measure the shaft with a caliper and send the data.
- What is the difference between a Y-bearing and a deep groove ball bearing?
- A Y-bearing has an extended inner ring and a shaft locking system, usually set screws, so it mounts directly on shafts without a shoulder. A standard deep groove ball bearing needs an interference fit or an adapter sleeve. Y-bearings are used in split housings and applications with simple maintenance.
- How often should a Y-bearing be lubricated in continuous service?
- Frequency depends on speed, load and environment. Under normal conditions, check lubrication every 2000 working hours or at each scheduled stop. In dusty, wet or high-temperature conditions, shorten the interval. Use the grease recommended by the equipment manufacturer and do not mix different bases.
