SKF TSO A end covers close off the ends of split bearing housings. They hold lubricant in, keep contaminants out and shield the bearing from the surrounding environment. For maintenance and purchasing teams, the cover is a small but decisive part of keeping a power transmission assembly running clean and reducing wear.
The TSO A code tells you what you are holding. Take TSO 217 A and TSO 234 A: the central number is the housing size the cover belongs to, while the trailing A marks a construction variant in that category. Reading the code this way lets you match a cover to an SKF split housing quickly. Before ordering, confirm the housing code and the shaft diameter.
You will find these covers in food and beverage plants, cement works, steel mills, paper mills, mining operations, material handling systems and general process equipment. They sit on split bearing housings that carry drive shafts, conveyor rollers, mixers and industrial fans. Where dust, moisture or splashes are present, the cover is what keeps the bearing seat sealed and the lubricant protected.
Selection starts with housing compatibility: the cover number has to correspond to the SKF housing size. Then consider the sealing the environment demands, since abrasive dust and liquid exposure are not the same duty. At mounting, clean the contact surfaces, check alignment, lubricate the bearing first and seat the cover without forcing it, so the sealing lip is not damaged.
Covers in the SKF TSO A series can be exchanged with parts from other manufacturers that follow the same split housing standard, as long as dimensions and fixing method agree. Compare drawings or physical samples before making a substitution. Our team can review interchangeability and suggest alternatives for your application.
To get the right cover, send the complete housing or cover code by WhatsApp. We help you confirm the reference and prepare a quote for what you need, supporting plants across the United States and Latin America with power transmission components and mounting accessories.

Frequently asked questions
- How do I identify the TSO A cover for my SKF housing?
- Match the cover number to the housing size: a TSO 217 A corresponds to a housing of the same number. Check the code on the housing, or send us a photo and dimensions.
- Are TSO A covers appropriate for wet areas?
- That depends on the sealing. The standard TSO A series handles dust and splashes. For continuous liquid exposure, look at variants with extra seals or ask us about options.
- Can a cover from another brand replace an SKF cover?
- Yes, when mounting dimensions and fixing type match. Split housing covers often share common dimensional standards, but compare drawings or samples before installing a different brand.
