The SKF SYNT FTF is a split plummer block housing assembly that comes with an insert bearing, intended for shaft mounting where contamination and load are concerns. Its split design simplifies installation and removal, while the sealing arrangement shields the bearing in harsh settings. This makes it a practical choice for equipment such as conveyors, mills, and mixers. MR Industrial Accessories LLC supplies this housing as part of its power transmission and mounted unit range.
Reading the code helps with selection: SYNT denotes the series of split plummer block housings with insert bearing, built with a sealed, robust configuration. The letters FTF point to particular sealing and lubrication details, including labyrinth seals and a relubrication groove. In a size like SYNT 65 FTF, the 65 indicates the shaft diameter in millimeters. This naming system lets you identify the size and features quickly.
These housings appear across industries such as food processing, cement, mining, and chemical production. Typical equipment includes belt conveyors, bucket elevators, hammer mills, mixers, and rotary dryers. They handle radial and axial loads and resist weather, so they suit dusty or humid locations. In processing plants, they mount drive shafts and rollers, which helps streamline maintenance and reduce downtime.
When choosing a SYNT FTF housing, consider the shaft diameter, the radial and axial loads, and the operating environment. The FTF seal provides enhanced protection against particles and water, making it a good fit for highly contaminated areas. During mounting, align the housing and shaft precisely to prevent extra loads. Use high-quality grease and follow proper lubrication to extend bearing life. Also check internal clearance and secure the insert to the shaft with the set screws.
For interchangeability, SKF SYNT FTF housings can replace other split plummer block housings with insert bearings from different manufacturers if the critical dimensions match: shaft diameter, distance between mounting holes, height to center, and seal type. Tolerances and fixing systems can differ between brands, so verification is important. If you are replacing an existing housing, our specialists can help confirm compatibility and performance.
