The SKF SHL split housing is designed for mounting bearings on shafts and securing them to the surrounding structure. Its two-piece construction simplifies installation and maintenance because you don't have to dismantle the entire assembly. Typical applications include power transmission equipment, conveyors and general machinery. MR Industrial Accessories supplies this line and offers technical guidance to help you pick the right model.
The SHL code follows a logical pattern. The letters SHL denote the SKF split housing series. The number immediately after SHL gives the shaft diameter in millimeters, and the suffix starting with V indicates design variations such as sealing arrangement or mounting style. For instance, SHL 60/V21 is a housing for a 60 mm shaft with a particular variant. Understanding these codes helps you order the correct replacement.
These housings appear in food processing, cement, mining and other industries where equipment operates under moderate loads and needs regular maintenance. You'll find them on belt conveyors, bucket elevators, mixers and mills. Because the housing splits in two, you can replace the bearing without pulling the shaft or the transmission, which cuts downtime. MR Industrial Accessories offers them for both replacements and new installations.
When selecting a housing, confirm that the shaft diameter matches the one in the designation and that the load capacity suits your application. During assembly, check alignment between the halves and the shaft to prevent unwanted stresses. Use the lubricant specified for the housed bearing, and choose a seal that protects against dust and moisture based on the environment. Follow the manufacturer's instructions for bolt tightening.
SHL housings can be interchanged with equivalent products from other brands that share the same standard dimensions. For a replacement, compare the main dimensions, mounting type and operating conditions. Not all suffixes are interchangeable because seals or materials may differ. If you're unsure, ask our technical team to verify compatibility before you buy.
