The SKF UC series is an insert Y-bearing with an extended inner ring and set screws, made to sit inside split or pillow block housings. It provides simple, economical shaft support that is easy to replace, which is why it appears in conveyors, fans, mixers and agricultural equipment. MR Industrial Accessories supplies this SKF line for maintenance and replacement work.

Reading the code helps you order the right size. UC identifies the Y-bearing family with extended inner ring; the following number steps up with size, so UC 204, UC 205 and UC 206 are progressively larger. A hyphen and digits after the number, as in UC 205-16, UC 207-20, UC 207-22 and UC 207-23, mark the shaft diameter in inches. Always send the complete designation so the exact size can be confirmed.

These inserts go into split, pillow block or flanged housings and are found on belt conveyors, screens, mills, mixers, exhausters and grain handling equipment. Food plants, meat processing facilities, quarries, aggregate operations and maintenance shops rely on them. Bearing plus housing gives you a shaft support that can be aligned and locked with only a few components.

Selection depends on shaft diameter, load type and the surrounding environment. The Y-bearing seal keeps out dust and moisture; where water or particles are present, extra protection is worth considering. The inner ring set screws hold the bearing on the shaft, so tighten them with the correct wrench and inspect the shaft for burrs first. Factory lubrication can be supplemented to suit the operating regime.

Crossing to other brands is possible, but sizes and suffixes do not always line up. Interchangeability comes down to shaft diameter, inner ring width and set screw position. If the housing is already in place, compare the old part number with the new one before installing. When in doubt, send the part number and shaft measurements.

MR Industrial Accessories helps you select the right Y-bearing. Send the full part number by WhatsApp, along with the shaft diameter and a photo of the housing if available. With that information the team can quote and confirm the SKF UC series.
