The SKF SY DUTF Y-bearing housing is a ready-to-mount assembly that pairs a cast iron housing with a Y-series insert bearing. It supports rotating shafts in applications that call for straightforward installation and reliable sealing against dust and moisture. The unit can be replaced as a whole without re-machining the shaft, making it a practical choice for low- to medium-duty machinery. MR Industrial Accessories supplies this SKF line to customers across the United States and Latin America.
The part number breaks down into meaningful sections. The SY prefix denotes a two-bolt pillow block Y-bearing housing. The following number, such as in SY 2.7/16 DUTF, gives the shaft diameter in inches and fractions. The DUTF suffix identifies a specific construction: insert secured with set screws, enhanced sealing, and a housing with anti-corrosion treatment. Understanding this structure helps you order the correct replacement without depending on outdated catalogs.
These units are used in belt conveyors, bucket elevators, mixers, screens, and packaging lines. They also appear in food, chemical, and construction materials processing, where dusty or damp conditions require effective sealing. The two-bolt pillow block design simplifies mounting on metal frames or concrete bases.
When selecting a housing, first confirm the shaft diameter and the insert fixing method. Options include set screws or an eccentric collar. Check the sealing because contaminant protection depends on it. During installation, align the housing with the shaft and tighten the set screws on the inner ring, not the outer ring. Lubricate according to the operating conditions and verify axial clearance. Proper alignment extends assembly life and prevents parasitic loads.
Y-bearing housings from different manufacturers are interchangeable if the shaft diameter, foot height, and hole spacing match. Designations vary by brand, but mounting geometry is the key. If you are unsure, send a photo of the nameplate or the assembled unit and we will verify it with you.

Frequently asked questions
- What does the DUTF suffix indicate in an SY housing?
- The DUTF suffix denotes a variant with an insert fixed by set screws, reinforced sealing, and a housing with anti-corrosion protection. This configuration suits environments with moderate dust or moisture. Always confirm the complete part number before ordering a replacement.
- How do I select the correct Y-bearing housing for my shaft?
- Measure the shaft diameter and check the hole spacing and foot height. Also determine the insert fixing type and the sealing required for your environment. With this information, send us the part number or a photo and we will advise you.
- Can SKF housings be interchanged with other brands?
- Yes, provided the mounting dimensions match: shaft diameter, foot height, and hole spacing. Nomenclatures differ between manufacturers, so do not rely solely on the part number. Compare drawings or samples before replacing.
