A split plummer block housing from the SKF SNH series holds shafts in place while letting you service the bearing without pulling the shaft out of the machine. The housing comes apart into two halves, so it fits bearings with either a tapered or a cylindrical bore. That makes it a practical choice when space around the equipment is tight and maintenance windows are short.
The letters SNH point to a medium-section housing. The figure after them is the size code, tied to the bore diameter of the bearing the housing accepts. A suffix such as TSN/H6 tells you which seal kit ships with the unit, typically lip seals plus flinger rings. Check that the seal matches the site conditions, because dust and moisture protection depends on it.
You will find these housings on conveyors, mills, mixers, pumps, fans and other process equipment. They handle moderate radial and axial loads, which suits transmission shafts and rollers. The split design is the main advantage: the bearing can be changed without dismantling adjacent components, cutting downtime.
Selection starts with shaft diameter, then bearing type, load and environment. The TSN/H6 seal works in moderate dust and moisture; harsher conditions may call for a different seal. During mounting, align both halves and tighten bolts evenly. Lubricate the bearing as specified, and check internal clearance afterward.
SKF SNH housings interchange with other brands built to the same dimension standard. When matching a replacement, compare shaft diameter, center height, hole spacing and seal type, not just the size code. MR Industrial Accessories supplies the SKF line and can help you cross-reference other designations.

Frequently asked questions
- What does the TSN/H6 suffix mean on an SNH housing?
- It identifies the seal kit supplied with the housing, usually lip seals and flinger rings that keep dust and moisture away from the bearing. Confirm the seal suits your operating conditions.
- How do I choose the SNH housing size for my shaft?
- Size follows shaft diameter and the bearing being used. For instance, an SNH 218 takes a bearing with a 90 mm bore. Verify the complete designation and ask a specialist if unsure.
- Are SKF SNH housings interchangeable with other brands?
- Generally yes, with housings that follow the same dimension standard. Still compare center height, hole spacing and seal type before installation.
