This SKF unit pairs an insert bearing with a circular four-bolt flange housing. It supports rotating shafts on flat surfaces and tolerates minor initial misalignment. The assembly is compact and straightforward to mount where a shaft needs moderate radial support.
The UCFC code identifies the housing style: a round flange with four mounting holes. In UCFC 206, the 206 sets the size, which relates to the nominal shaft diameter and the unit's overall dimensions. The U denotes the insert bearing with its shaft locking arrangement, while FC indicates the circular flange. Every size in the series keeps a consistent relationship between shaft diameter and load capacity.
Typical applications include conveyors, belts, elevators, mixers, fans and process equipment. Flange mounting simplifies installation on walls or frames, and it also suits older or hard-to-reach machines because the insert bearing can be replaced without dismantling the whole assembly.
When selecting a unit, confirm the shaft diameter and the insert locking method. The insert bearing seal may be simple or include an additional seal; match it to the environment, whether dust, moisture or frequent washdowns. Lubrication is applied at the factory, but check it if the equipment runs at high temperatures or sustained speeds. Proper initial alignment matters: although the housing accepts small deviations, forcing it into place accelerates wear.
For interchangeability, Y-bearings with circular flanges from different brands generally share standardized dimensions, but always verify hole diameters and center distance. Inserts are not universally interchangeable between housings because locking systems and sealing can differ. When replacing an assembly, compare the complete code and the main dimensions.

Frequently asked questions
- What does UCFC mean in an SKF housing?
- UCFC designates circular four-bolt flange housings with an insert bearing. The U stands for the insert, CF for the round flange, and the number that follows, such as 206, defines the size and corresponding shaft diameter.
- How do I determine the housing size I need?
- Measure the shaft diameter at the mounting point and compare it with the series table. Also check the distance between flange holes and their diameter to ensure proper fixing. If you have doubts, send us the measurements by WhatsApp.
- Can I replace only the insert bearing?
- In many cases yes, provided the replacement insert matches in outer diameter, width and locking system. The housing can be reused if it is in good condition. Consult us with the housing code to verify compatibility.
