This SKF unit pairs a Y-bearing housing with a TUWK-series insert bearing, giving you a ready-to-mount assembly for supporting rotating shafts. It suits equipment that needs simple installation and self-alignment, especially where the shaft is neither hardened nor ground and loads are low to medium.
The TUWK code breaks down into useful information. TU marks the unit type, W tells you the housing is cast iron in either foot or flange form, and K means the insert bearing has a metric bore. The number that follows, as in TUWK 506 L or TUWK 507 L, sets the bearing and housing size. The trailing L identifies a sealing or insert-locking variant. Matching the shaft diameter to the insert bearing series is the first step in picking the right number.
You will find these units on belt conveyors, packaging lines, mixers, fans, centrifugal pumps and light transmission drives. They also show up in agricultural machinery and aggregate processing equipment. Because the insert bearing comes pre-mounted in the housing, installation takes less time and you avoid the mistake of fitting a loose bearing.
Selection starts with shaft diameter and load type: radial, axial or combined. Then review the insert seal, since dusty, wet or chip-heavy environments call for a more robust closure. Internal clearance is set at the factory and is not adjusted during mounting. Most versions are permanently lubricated, though severe-duty inserts with a channel can be relubricated. Housing-to-shaft alignment matters: a crooked housing forces the insert and shortens its life.
Equivalent Y-bearing housings exist across brands with similar part numbers, but they are not always interchangeable. Shaft diameter and hole spacing usually match, while seals, housing materials and insert locking methods can differ. Before swapping one unit for another, check the complete part number and critical dimensions. If the code on the old housing is unreadable, send us the shaft diameter and a photo.

Frequently asked questions
- What does the L suffix mean in a TUWK housing?
- It denotes a variant in the TUWK series, typically related to sealing or the insert bearing locking system. The shaft diameter and main housing dimensions stay the same. Confirm equivalence by comparing the full part number and mounting dimensions.
- Can I replace a Y-bearing housing from another brand with an SKF one?
- Often yes, but not automatically. Shaft and mounting hole dimensions tend to match between brands, yet sealing, housing material and insert type may vary. Always verify the part number and main dimensions before replacing.
- How do I request a quote for a Y-bearing housing with insert bearing?
- Send the full part number from the housing or insert bearing, such as TUWK 506 L, via WhatsApp or email. If it is not legible, include the shaft diameter and a photo. We will reply promptly with a quote and can suggest equivalents.
